Interview with Sean Wade, CEO of Power Metal Resources
Recording date: 27th of November, 2024
Power Metal Resources (AIM:POW) is an AIM-listed mining incubator and project generator offering investors an attractive opportunity to gain exposure to the raw materials powering the global energy transition and ongoing industrialization. With a market cap of just £17 million, the company has assembled a portfolio of high-potential exploration assets across critical metals such as tungsten, uranium, gold, copper and nickel.
One of Power Metal's key assets is a 45% stake in Pilot Mountain, owner of the largest undeveloped tungsten resource in the US. This interest alone is worth around £17 million, underpinning the current valuation. The company also has an extensive uranium portfolio in Canada's Athabasca Basin, with $10 million in funding secured for high-impact drilling to begin in early 2025.
In addition, Power Metal is on the cusp of spinning out its Australian gold assets into a new vehicle called FDR, with drill-ready targets in the same region as Greatland Gold's Havieron discovery. The company is also making early moves into the underexplored Arabian Shield, with several partnerships already signed.
Investors can look forward to a range of potential catalysts in the near-term, including the start of drilling in Canada and Australia, the completion of the FDR spin-out, and exploration results from ongoing work in Saudi Arabia. With a tight share structure and experienced management team, Power Metal offers significant upside potential on discovery success.
Macro forces including decarbonization, electrification and geopolitical tensions are conspiring to drive a potential supercycle in critical metals. With a diverse asset base and aggressive exploration plans, Power Metal appears well-positioned to capitalize on this powerful theme. As such, the company may be an attractive consideration for risk-tolerant investors seeking exposure to the building blocks of a more sustainable future.
