Namib Minerals has presented a five-point roadmap to recommission the Redwing mine in Zimbabwe, with dewatering to be completed by the end of Q4 2026. The technical program for the final feasibility study, prepared by WSP Global to SEC S-K 1300 standards, is fully funded through the start of Q1 2027. The company secured a USD 5 million loan facility via Bulawayo Mining Company at Ecobank Zimbabwe to fund the technical program, but has a current ratio of 0.3 and is seeking additional funds for the planned 8,750‑metre drilling program and the subsequent construction and commissioning phases (drilling program completion expected Q4 2027). » More on de.investing.com
