Interim Report for the 6 months ended 30 June 2026

Summary by AI BETAClose X

Eurasia Mining plc reported interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2026, with revenue of £2,297,735 and an approximate profit of £0.8 million, a significant improvement from the prior year's nil revenue in the first half. The company is progressing with its strategy to focus on its Kola Arctic assets, comprising the Monchetundra and NKT mines, following shareholder approval to sell its majority interest in the West Kytlim mine. Geopolitical developments, particularly concerning the conflict in Ukraine and potential resolutions, are highlighted as a key driver for market value and future operations. The company's balance sheet shows total assets of £20,170,986 and total equity of £17,980,842 as of 30 June 2026.

Interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2026

 

Eurasia Mining plc ("Eurasia" or the "Company"), the iridium, osmium, palladium, platinum, rhodium, ruthenium and gold mining company, announces its interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2026.

 

Chairman’s Statement

It is my pleasure to summarise our progress, as the first half of 2026 saw an important step in our plans to realise value from our assets. Our majority interest in the West Kytlim mine, held through our 68% ownership in Kosvinsky Kamen, was approved for sale by shareholders in January this year. The plan for the sale would allow us to focus on our key assets, holding 99.7% of our reserves and resources of the key metals (nickel-copper-precious metals) in the key region of Arctic in Kola, comprising the Monchetundra permitted mine and the adjacent NKT formerly operating mine. The combination of these two mines is planned as the nexus for the first-mover advantage in the development of a new mining cluster in the Arctic.

 

As we have discussed before, we continue to keep our options open, as changes in the geopolitical context may change our priorities.

 

Geopolitics

Geopolitics has been the most important driver of Eurasia’s market value for the past five years; thus, it is important to summarise the key geopolitical developments.

 

We wait hopefully for a negotiated settlement of the conflict in Ukraine, as highlighted as a feasible option in JPMorgan’s insight piece in May 20261. Unfortunately, as predicted, escalation is happening prior to the settlement. However, and most importantly, the negotiations have started involving not only the parties to the conflict, but also several third parties that are key to a successful conflict resolution:

  • The US leadership is motivated to resolve the conflict fast, especially due to the upcoming midterm elections in the US in early November of this year. Not only was peace in Ukraine one of the election promises, but the resolution will also bring back to the international markets additional supply of oil, gas and, most importantly, diesel, which is critical in the context of the Middle East crisis and supply crunch. It is common knowledge that the current diesel price in the US is at the historical high and thus one of the key drivers impacting the outcome of the midterm elections.
  • In this regard, the US is putting in significant negotiating effort, which includes the unprecedented Kyiv visit of Witkoff and Kushner following their Moscow visit earlier this month, top-level meetings of the US with Ukraine and the US with Russia in New York last week and other efforts; all directed at the negotiated settlement and diesel crisis relief before the US midterms.
  • Joining the invitation by the US of the Russian leadership to G20 in Miami, the UK has extended an invitation to all G20 member states, including Russia, to attend the Manchester summit in the UK2. This comes as no surprise, because according to the Telegraph: “Experts warn that proposed US diesel export restrictions would be catastrophic for Britain”. The swift Ukraine peace effort and return of Russian diesel to the international markets is a viable solution to prevent events “catastrophic for Britain”3; thus, the UK is joining the peace efforts.
  • Russia was invited to G20 finance ministers’ and trade ministers’ meetings in the US.
  • Unprecedented for the last five years, a meeting between foreign ministers of Germany and Russia took place last week.
  • Vatican Pope’s envoy’s visit to Moscow on a 3-day peace mission this week.

 

The above list can be continued, as more countries have now joined the effort for a negotiated settlement by the end of this year and to prevent a global economic crisis.

 

West Kytlim

As announced in the Annual Report, 2025 ended with the record level of production exceeding 10Koz of PGM concentrate, with two plants fully equipped for running under freezing temperatures. By the time of this interim report publication, two additional plants (four in total) have been fully equipped for the winter season.

 

The major part of production normally takes place in the second half of the year, as was the case in 2025, when there was no revenue in the first six months of the year. This year, £2,297,735 in revenue was already generated in the first half of the year (nil in 1H2025), and the profit for 1H2026 was  approximately £0.8 million.

 

Kola Arctic Assets

In the Arctic, advancement of the tier-1 world-class NKT brownfield asset continued. As reported, Kola Arctic assets comprise approximately 99.7% of the Group's total reserves and resources. These include the Monchetundra mine launch and the NKT formerly operating mine relaunch.

 

The Company remains well prepared for the next steps planned since early 2026, and we look forward to updating you as work proceeds.

 

As a long-term significant shareholder myself, I am grateful to our shareholders for their continued patience and support. Geopolitics has had its impact on our plans for a number of recent years. Thus, the ongoing multinational peace effort discussed above is helping the company to get back on track to create value for all shareholders.

Provision is made for the cost of restoration and environmental rehabilitation of the land disturbed by the West Kytlim mining operations, based on the estimated future costs using information available at the reporting date.

 

The provision is discounted using a risk-free discount rate of from 13.39% to 16.93% (2025: 12.99% to 14.99%) depending on the commitment terms, attributed to the Russian Federal Bonds.

 

Provision is estimated based on the sub-areas within general West Kytlim mining licence the company has carried down its operations on by the end of the reporting period. Timing is stipulated by the forestry permits issued at the pre-mining stage for each of sub-areas. Actual costs in respect of the long-term provision recognised by 30 June 2026 will be incurred within 2026-2040.
