RNS Number : 5345O Alba Mineral Resources PLC 26 June 2025
Alba Mineral Resources Plc / EPIC: ALBA / Market: AIM / Sector: Mining
26 June 2025
Alba Mineral Resources Plc
("Alba" or the "Company")
Clogau Update
Alba Mineral Resources Plc (AIM: ALBA) is pleased to provide this operational
update in respect of the Company's 100% owned Clogau-St David's Gold Mine in
north Wales ("Clogau" or the "Mine").
Due to the availability of the Company's principal blasting contractor, the
next phase of underground blasting at the main gold target at the Mine, the
Llechfraith Target, is now anticipated to commence in late July 2025.
The Company continues to make the detailed preparations for the blasting
programme in preparation for the scheduled start date, including implementing
modifications in order to achieve greater penetration and faster progression
through the blasting sequences.
Processing of the remaining ore stockpile continues at the Mine, with around 4
kg of concentrate currently at, or in transit to, the Company's refiner for
refining.
Finally, the Company will be producing a limited series of 18 carat pendants
from gold extracted by Alba from the Mine. In connection with this, the
Company has registered "GMW" as a maker's mark at the London Assay Office. The
Company intends to offer these pendants for sale at a set price rather than at
auction and to offer verified Alba shareholders an initial priority period for
the purchase of the pendants before they go on wider sale. Precise details
have yet to be finalised but will be confirmed in due course.
