Greatland Gold PLC

Greatland Gold (AIM:GGP) managing director Shaun Day joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss an updated Reserve and Resource for the Havieron gold-copper project released by joint venture partner Newmont.

Greatland Gold remains highly confident in its Mineral Resource estimate of 8.4 million gold equivalent ounces and will continue to report under JORC.

Great Southern Copper expands Especularita project with two new properties

Great Southern Copper PLC

Great Southern Copper PLC (LSE:GSCU) chief executive Sam Garrett tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that the company has expanded its Especularita project in Chile through two new option agreements, enhancing the project's exploration prospects. These agreements incorporate the Cerro Negro and Artemisa properties, adjacent to Great Southern Copper's existing concessions, into the Especularita project. This expansion is part of the company's long-term strategy to explore for porphyry copper systems, with the properties adding significant potential due to their location relative to a known lithocap, which is indicative of porphyry copper deposits. Cerro Negro, previously mined by Antofagasta, has shown evidence of high-grade copper and silver at the base of an open pit, suggesting the potential for porphyry copper at depth. No significant exploration outside the mine's immediate area has been documented, but signs of oxide copper along strike to the south suggest unexplored potential. Artemisa, adjacent to the company's Victoria and Lita prospects, complements ongoing exploration efforts, with plans for drilling in the near future. The next steps include reviewing historical data and preparing for sampling and drilling on the newly acquired properties within the next 12 months. The company is also awaiting assay results from its Teresita and Abundante scout RC drilling programme, aimed at testing new targets for copper and gold mineralization.

S&U PLC navigates economic and regulatory challenges, eyes future growth

S & U PLC

S&U PLC chairman Anthony Coombs delved into the company's trading statement for the 12 months ended 31 January 2024 in an interview with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion. Despite a challenging year due to a number of headwinds facing the sector, the motor and property finance group remained resilient, with improving prospects. Coombs attributed the past year's to the cost of living increase and heightened regulatory activities by the Financial Conduct Authority, aimed at protecting customers under economic pressure. This regulatory environment created headwinds for S&U, slightly impacting its results. Consequently, pre-tax profits are expected to be 10 to 15% below analysts' consensus. However, Coombs said the flow of new business into both of S&U's sectors—motor and property finance—is robust, with the company facing challenges in collections due to regulatory scrutiny. S&U's diverse business model, including its Advantage motor finance and Aspen bridging loan business, has helped it navigate pressures. Aspen, in particular, saw cumulative repayments increase by more than 50%, benefiting from high demand in the SME sector for development and refurbishment loans—a demand not fully met by traditional banks. This diversification is expected to aid in the company's recovery, especially as economic conditions improve. Contact Details Proactive UK Ltd +44 20 7989 0813 uk@proactiveinvestors.com

MP Evans Group PLC

MP Evans Group PLC Matthew Coulson discusses the company's 2023 Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) report, which encompasses data and progress spanning from 2021 to 2023. In an interview with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion, Coulson said the report is a testament to the company's commitment to sustainability and transparency within its Indonesian palm oil operations.

Coulson shared the company's ambitious goal of achieving net-zero status by 2050, alongside setting interim targets for 2030 to monitor and ensure progress towards this long-term objective. The importance of ESG disclosure, as Coulson notes, stems from the growing interest of stakeholders, including shareholders, in sustainable practices. This transparency not only meets regulatory requirements but also exceeds them, reinforcing MP Evans Group's role as a responsible entity in the industry. Community engagement forms a critical aspect of the company's ESG efforts. With over 12,000 employees in Indonesia and a broader community living on their estates, Coulson said MP Evans is dedicated to improving living standards through high-quality housing, healthcare, education, and recreational facilities. Additionally, the company extends its sustainability ethos to its network of independent suppliers and smallholders, ensuring that they too can meet their sustainability goals.

Meme Moguls

The cryptocurrency market has seen a lot of change recently. One specific change caught people’s attention: the recent developments of Optimism (OP). After an official X tweet, the project got much more interest and value. Tron (TRX) and Meme Moguls (MGLS) are also doing great. Many analysts hint that MGLS, now in Stage 5 of its presale, may become the next 100x meme coin in 2024. Let’s find out why. Optimism (OP): Official X Post Triggers a Rally Recently, Optimism (OP) has been making headlines. Notably, the official X account posted, “Optimism always wins.” After this post, interest in the Optimism crypto increased.

Additionally, the technical analysis for Optimism paints a bullish picture, as 23 technical indicators are flashing green. Due to all this bullish Optimism news, experts in the crypto field predict that it may hit $5.09 within Q2 of 2024. Tron (TRX): TocketPocket Now Supports USDT Payment Meanwhile, Tron (TRX) has also shown some exciting developments. For instance, TocketPocket announced that those without Tron may now use USDT for payments. With this development, traders will pay any Tron Network fee with USDT and receive 20 TRX for future use. This Tron news may trigger a rally for this crypto. Regarding its value movement, Tron has surged from $0.12 to $0.13 in the past seven days. In that period, its market cap has increased from $11.03B to $12.12B. Thus, market analysts forecast a price of $0.18 for this altcoin within Q1 of 2024. Meme Moguls (MGLS): To Dominate the Meme Coin Market Meme Moguls (MGLS) is gaining momentum, particularly during its ongoing presale, which has raised close to $2.5M. The sudden interest in the project comes from how promising MGLS will be as a meme coin in the crypto market. Utility is scarce, but this project provides some real value. Its capability to perform two tasks simultaneously sets it apart from other meme coins. Acting as a governance token and an in-game currency for the upcoming Meme Moguls play-to-earn game (P2E). The team behind the project designed it precisely to remove the meme coin narrative that most investors are tired of hearing, offering actual utility. The Meme Moguls P2E game promises an immersive experience for players. Participants will delve into virtual stock trading experiences, gaining insights into wealth-building and investments. They may even stake the MGLS tokens or engage in the Moguls World - a metaverse experience connecting worldwide players. Currently priced at $0.0036 during Stage 5 of its presale, MGLS has already provided early buyers with a 90% ROI. With a Uniswap listing scheduled for Q1 2024, experts are optimistic about a potential 100x surge soon. The ongoing 30% deposit bonus during the presale further enhances the appeal for potential investors looking to capitalize on this promising meme coin. Will Meme Moguls Leave Optimism and Tron in the Dust? The low market cap of $10.8M positions Meme Moguls for accelerated growth compared to established players like Optimism and Tron. With the potential for faster surges in value due to reduced new fund requirements, Meme Moguls may dominate the meme coin space. Visit Meme Moguls Meme Moguls and all cryptocurrencies are subject to significant price fluctuations and volatility. Investing in or holding Meme Moguls tokens carries substantial risks, including the potential for total loss. Past performance should not be considered indicative of future results.
