First Class Metals Raises £1m to Accelerate Sunbeam Gold Exploration @StockBoxMedia spoke to James Knowles, Chairman at @FirstClassMetal (LSE: FCM), following the company’s £1 million placing. Watch below ⬇️ youtu.be/JEQEnuTylfU?si=dQgJ… ➡️James said the raise was opportunistic rather than urgent, with funds secured at around 150% above the company’s previous March placing price. ➡️The strategic transaction remains on track, with both parties working constructively towards completion, though the final timing is outside the company’s control. ➡️Funds will mainly support expanded exploration at Sunbeam, including further work around the Pettigrew trend, possible follow-up at Roy, and wider evaluation of the project’s 30km of mineralised trends.

@StockBoxMedia spoke to @FirstClassMetal (LON #FCM) CEO @MarcFCMetals as the company nears completion of a major Ontario asset monetisation deal, expected to deliver significant non-dilutive funding while retaining future upside exposure.🔗 Read the full update here: share-talk.com/first-class-m…
@FirstClassMetal has delivered impressively, especially considering how difficult the setup once looked. #FCM's second target around 3.75p has now been met. Above that, the next major resistance from the last two years comes in around 5p to 5.4p, and that is the area to watch by the end of this month. Ideally, the shares now remain above the latest gap support at 3.4p. 🔗 Read the full update here: share-talk.com/traders-cafe-… @ZaksTradersCafe
