ended 30 June 2025 of £728,291 which includes the disposal of the Gold Ridge
Investment for US$550 000 (six months period to 30 June 2024: an unaudited
operating loss of £1,374,111).
Basic and diluted loss per share for the Period was 4.93p (six months period

Half-yearly report notes
1. Half-yearly report
This interim report was approved by the Board of Directors on 30 September
2025.
The information relating to the six months periods to 30 June 2025 and 30 June
2024 are unaudited.
The information relating to the year ended 31 December 2024 is extracted from
the audited financial statements of the Company which have been filed at
Companies House and on which the auditors issued an unqualified audit report.
The condensed interim financial statements have been reviewed by the Company's
auditor.
2. Basis of accounting
The interim financial statements have been prepared using accounting policies
and practices that are consistent with those adopted in the statutory
financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024, although the
information does not constitute statutory financial statements within the
meaning of the Companies Act 2006. The interim financial statements have been
prepared under the historical cost convention.
These interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with UK-adopted
international accounting standards and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules
of the UK Financial Conduct Authority.
This interim report does not include all the notes of the type normally
included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this interim report
should be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 31
December 2024.
The Company will report again for the full year to 31 December 2025.
Going concern
The Company's Day to day financing is from its available cash resources.
The Company is confident of raising funds and disposing of non-core assets to
execute its' strategy of completing an RTO in a timely manner.
For the reasons outlined above, the Directors are satisfied that the Company
will be able to meet its current and future liabilities, and continue trading,
for the foreseeable future and, in any event, for a period of not less than
twelve months from the date of approving this interim report. The preparation
of these interim financial statements on a going concern basis is therefore
considered to remain appropriate.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of condensed interim financial statements requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities at the end of the reporting period. Significant items subject
to such estimates are set out in the Company's 2024 Annual Report and
Financial Statements. The nature and amounts of such estimates have not
changed significantly during the interim period.
Intangible assets
Exploration and development costs
All costs associated with mineral exploration and investments are capitalised
on a project-by-project basis, pending determination of the feasibility of the
project. Costs incurred include appropriate technical and administrative
expenses but not general overheads. If an exploration project is successful,
the related expenditures will be transferred to mining assets and amortised
over the estimated life of economically recoverable reserves on a unit of
production basis.
Intangible assets
Exploration and development costs
Where a licence is relinquished or a project abandoned, the related costs are
written off in the period in which the event occurs. Where the Group maintains
an interest in a project, but the value of the project is considered to be
impaired, a provision against the relevant capitalised costs will be raised.
The recoverability of all exploration and development costs is dependent upon
the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Group
to obtain necessary financing to complete the development of reserves and
future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition thereof.
