First-pass take

Pre-revenue exploration company with no strategic AI exposure; high exploration risk concentrated in undrilled Reese Ridge where gallium content is incidental to base-metals thesis. Industrial minerals portfolio defensible but non-AI. Material going-concern risk: £102k cash, £659k FY2024 loss, dependent on future equity raises. Recent setback: Tolsa abandoned Pioche sepiolite option Dec 2024.
