Contributions and company outcomes
Midas added Otavi to its exploration portfolio; operating delivery remains unproven
FY2025 · issuer reported · low materiality
Midas’ FY2025 report described the acquisition of the Otavi copper-silver-gold project in Namibia as a transformational portfolio addition and showed a year-end market-capitalisation increase, while the company remained loss-making (FY2025 loss A$2.77m). Exploration success and future project value remain prospective; no operating mine delivery is established in this record.
