Fusion Antibodies reports second-half rebound as new commercial strategy pays off

Fusion Antibodies PLC

Fusion Antibodies PLC (AIM:FAB) CEO Adrian Kinkaid joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion with more on the company that specialises in various stages of antibody development, excluding GMP production for clinical trials. He described Fusion Antibodies as a collaborative research organisation that engages deeply with clients to develop therapeutic antibodies, one of the most complex scientific endeavours. Its client base includes small VC-funded biotechs and has expanded to include large organisations like the National Cancer Institute. Fusion Antibodies also explores adjacent markets such as diagnostics, family medicine, and veterinary medicine. Recently, the company faced economic challenges, particularly a decrease in venture capital for biotechs, impacting its core business. However, it responded with strategic diversifications and cost management, leading to a 47% increase in fourth-quarter 2024 sales compared to the first quarter. The order pipeline at the year's end was significantly stronger at £750,000, promising a solid foundation for future growth. Kinkaid noted that Fusion Antibodies has secured various agreements, including a notable collaboration with the National Cancer Institute to employ their OptiMAL technology platform for discovering human antibodies. This platform could potentially lead to multiple licensing opportunities due to its vast diversity. Additionally, the company raised about £1.37 million, which will fund growth initiatives, including expanding its commercial team to better reach its primary market in the USA.

Excellon Resources Reports Promising Results from Kilgore Project Drilling in Idaho

Excellon Resources Inc

Excellon Resources CEO Shawn Howarth joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the latest drilling outcomes from the exploration program at the Kilgore Project in Idaho, which is entirely owned by Excellon. The exploration comprised six diamond drill holes, spanning a total of 2,145 meters, with oriented cores and detailed sampling aimed at enhancing the structural understanding and potential of high-grade mineralization. Howarth reported that the drilling has successfully confirmed mineralization in a previously under drilled area of Kilgore, with grade intervals consistent with the current Mineral Resource Estimate cut-off. This suggests a potential extension of the mineralization southwest of the known deposit. Notable results included a yield of 1.37 grams per tonne of gold (g/t Au) over 81.21 meters in drill hole EX22KG004, which included higher concentrations of 2.77 g/t Au over 15.64 meters and 5.28 g/t Au over 5.54 meters, confirming significant high-grade mineralization in the Aspen sediments. Additionally, drill hole EX22KG005 showed 0.53 g/t Au over 56.24 meters, including 2.91 g/t Au over 1.45 meters, effectively testing the extension of the existing mineralized envelope to the southwest. This valuable data will contribute to a better understanding of grade contouring and will be instrumental in future resource modeling and exploratory drilling programs.

Yurik elaborated on the portfolio's composition, highlighting its inclusion of 18 royalties and 32 lithium properties.

The company would retain ownership of any properties not transferred to optionees, with the flexibility to re-option, sell, or relinquish such properties. These properties encompass promising land situated on geological trends similar to, and surrounding, significant lithium discoveries in Ontario. Moreover, six out of 24 developed lithium prospects in Ontario with documented reserves or resources are proximate to these properties. Electric Royalties' acquisition underscores its strategic positioning within the burgeoning lithium sector, capitalizing on the potential of Ontario's lithium resources and reinforcing its commitment to expanding its royalty portfolio in key mining jurisdictions.
