Net Asset Value at 30 June 2020
 
Starvest PLC (LON:SVE), the London Stock Exchange AIM-listed specialist mining and resources investment business, announces a Net Asset Value update as at 30 June 2020.
 
Callum Baxter, Chairman and CEO, commented: "Our emphasis on re-aligning the portfolio toward gold stocks over the past 12-18 months has yielded strong growth in our Company's Net Asset Value, which now exceeds £10m. Currently, our handpicked investment portfolio, in particular our most important investment, Greatland Gold plc which now represents around 90 per cent of our value, is benefitting from the strong environment for gold as our investee companies are growing through ongoing development and solid production. We believe these operators will continue to achieve positive results due to their focus and hard work on good projects. We expect to benefit from further strength in the gold price to generate additional value for our shareholders."
