First-pass take

Rare earth miner with genuine operating leverage (production ramp from 475 to 4,800+ tonnes/year with designed-in capacity) but commodity-exposed and capital-intensive. AI exposure indirect only (rare earth magnets in EVs, not primary AI tailwind). Weak balance sheet (negative working capital, high debt draw-down from £3.5m prior year raises).
