Starvest PLC (LON:SVE), the London Stock Exchange AIM listed specialist mining and resources investment business, announces a Net Asset Value update as at 31 December 2019.

 

Callum Baxter, Chairman and CEO, commented: "The past twelve months saw a subdued trading environment for exploration and development companies in our sector. Nonetheless, we finished 2019 with a marginal improvement in our Portfolio Value and Net Asset Value when compared to 12 months previous. Looking forward to the coming year the landscape for precious metals and base metals looks brighter, particularly for gold and copper. Our portfolio of investee companies provides exposure to both of these commodities and we look forward to a reinvigorated market in 2020."
