Critical Metals Russell Fryer on Copper and Cobalt Plans for Production in 2024
In a revealing interview at PDAC 2024, InvestorNews host Tracy Weslosky engaged with Russell Fryer, CEO and Executive Director of Critical Metals PLC (LSE: CRTM), shedding light on the company’s strategic operations in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and its forward-looking goals. Fryer discussed the evolving political climate in the DRC, highlighting the peaceful presidential election in December 2023 as evidence of the country’s commitment to democracy and the rule of law, which is crucial for investors considering Congo-based companies. He underscored the significance of the DRC in the global supply of cobalt, essential for green energy, and the high-grade copper reserves, vital as other regions face diminishing supplies.
Critical Metals PLC is set to resume production and generate profits in 2024, distinguishing itself with a poly-metallic deposit that yields copper and potentially cobalt. The company’s proactive measures, including road rehabilitation and an off-take agreement with OM Metal & Resources, are poised to enable sales in the first half of the year. Fryer also revealed plans for further drilling and the development of a JORC report, enhancing shareholder value.
The company has made strategic acquisitions, including a controlling stake in Madini Occidental Limited, which holds an indirect 70% interest in the Molulu copper/cobalt project. This acquisition aligns with Critical Metals PLC’s strategy to target projects with low entry costs and near-term cash flow potential. The company’s commitment to operational efficiency and infrastructure upgrades, such as road improvements to facilitate ore delivery, alongside its notable collaboration with OM Metals, underscores its strategy for sustainable growth.
