Russell Fryer of Critical Metals Discusses the Growing Demand for Copper and Cobalt in Africa

Critical Metals PLC, a London-listed company, is making significant strides in its past-producing Molulu Copper/Cobalt Project in the Democratic Republic of Congo. CEO Russell Fryer shared key insights into the strategic developments at the project in an engaging interview with Tracy Weslosky on InvestorNews.

One of the major highlights of the interview was the emphasis on essential infrastructure improvements, particularly the rehabilitation of a 28km road crucial for local logistics. This development will facilitate the resumption of copper ore sales from Molulu, aligning with the positive outlook for the copper market, with predictions of a 30% rise in copper prices within the next 12 months.

Russell also discussed the ongoing drill program aimed at enhancing the company’s mining block model, a crucial step towards escalating the Molulu project towards production. Additionally, he revealed the company’s strategic move to expand its investor base with an upcoming listing on the US OTCQB market.

Furthermore, the potential financial backing from the US Government in the form of an $11 million loan with loan guarantees underscores the confidence in Critical Metals’ operations to bring critical minerals to the global market.

With a focus on identifying low CAPEX and OPEX brown-field projects with near-term production, Critical Metals PLC is leveraging off-take partnerships and strategic initiatives to drive growth and contribute to future global economic growth. Stay tuned for more updates on this promising venture.
