Ajax Resources PLC (LSE: AJAX) has acquired Puna Metals S.A., securing the mining rights to the Eureka Project in Argentina. The acquisition aligns with Ajax’s strategy to develop Eureka into a low-cost gold and copper operation over the next few years. As part of this strategic shift, the company plans to cancel its listing on the Official List and Main Market and transition to the Aquis Stock Exchange (AQSE). This move is expected to better support future acquisitions and capital raising initiatives.
The AQSE listing is intended to provide Ajax with greater flexibility as it progresses its development and funding plans, aiming to position itself more effectively within the junior mining sector.
Company Overview
Ajax Resources PLC is a UK-based special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) focused on identifying and developing undervalued assets in the natural resources sector. The company is particularly targeting high-potential projects in jurisdictions such as Argentina.
