Recording date: 21st November 2024
Rome Resources is making rapid progress at its high-grade tin project in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Initial assay results from the Kalayi prospect returned grades as high as 3-4% tin, on par with the 4% grades from neighboring $1B market cap producer Alphamin.
With 10 more tin-mineralized holes from Kalayi at the lab and two holes from the large polymetallic discovery at Mont Agoma also awaiting assays, a steady stream of potentially market-moving results is expected in the coming weeks. Strategic investors have taken notice, approaching Rome and seeing similarities to Alphamin, albeit at an earlier stage.
Rome is fully funded to complete the current 3,000m drill program. Well-timed to the rising tin price and growing supply deficit, Rome offers significant upside potential for investors if it can continue to deliver Alphamin-like drill results.
The company is led by CEO Paul Barrett, who brings a wealth of experience advancing African tin projects. While early-stage, the combination of high-grade tin, a major new polymetallic discovery, a proven mining jurisdiction, and clear development analogue make Rome a compelling speculation for risk-tolerant investors at its current $30M market cap.
Key investment highlights:
High-grade results up to 3-4% tin at Kalayi prospect
Numerous assays pending from Kalayi and polymetallic Mont Agoma discovery
Fully funded to complete initial 3,000m drill program
Strategic investors circling; Alphamin provides $1B blueprint to follow
Exposure to record high tin prices and forecast supply deficit
