Director dealings: Solgold director ups stake
Solgold revealed on Tuesday that head of exploration Jason Ward had acquired 116,279 ordinary shares in the AIM-listed precious metals group.
Ward, who has been with Solgold since its inception in 2006, purchased the shares at an average price of 21.50p each, for a total value of £24,999.99.
Back in April, SolGold updated the market on expressions of interest it had received from leading commodity traders for the offtake of copper-gold-silver concentrate from its flagship Alpala project in Ecuador.
Solgold said that, following the release of “encouraging” metallurgical test work results in October, it began engaging with “major” global copper smelters and international commodity traders, in a bid to assess the interest and commercial value of Alpala's high copper, high precious metal and low deleterious content copper concentrate.
Subject to favourable outcomes in development funding and necessary permits, production of gold-rich copper concentrate is expected to start in late 2025.
As of 1630 BST, Solgold shares were up 0.99% at 20.50p.
