Notice of MRE/Economic Update & Webinar

Strategic Minerals plc (AIM: SML; USOTC: SMCDF), an international mineral exploration and production company, is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Cornwall Resources Limited ("CRL"), expects to be able to publish a new Mineral Resources Estimate ("MRE") and updated Economic Sensitivity Analysis for its wholly owned Redmoor Tungsten-Tin-Copper Project ("Redmoor") in southeast Cornwall on Thursday, 26 March 2026.

The MRE and updated Economic Sensitivity Analysis are key outputs from the exploration drilling and associated activities undertaken over the past year at Redmoor which were part-funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.

The MRE will combine the results of last year's drilling and relogging programme and 1980s drilling datasets. The Economic Sensitivity Analysis will update the outputs from the 2020 Redmoor Scoping Study using the updated MRE, metallurgical testwork results, and other updates, and incorporating new metal price assumptions. Work is progressing on schedule to finalise all outputs prior to the scheduled release date.
