At 31 Jan 2025, Gunsynd had loans outstanding (including interest) of £153,552 and holds 3,590,594 ordinary shares representing approximately 5.9% of the issued share capital of Richmond Hill.
Peter Ruse, Director of Gunsynd, commented:
"Having worked directly in Mineral exploration in the province of Quebec, Canada, I am encouraged by the proposed acquisition of the Saint Sophie Copper project that may present a promising future for Richmond Hill to seek out a high-grade ore body in a sought-after, tier-1 mining jurisdiction. The property has numerous historic mineralised occurrences and has had very little modern exploration."
Gunsynd looks forward to providing further updates from Richmond Hill in relation to the transaction.
