Jason Brewer flowed into London from Nairobi, Kenya, this week for meetings with broker houses, investors, and company representatives, not forgetting his flight today across to Dublin to attend the Unicorn Mineral Resources annual general meeting.

Share Talk asked Jason to call into the London SE1 studio, where Zak Mir was hosting proceedings. Here is the full interview. We have not edited or removed any of the questions/answers. Holders and investors of Marula Mining should be aware that the company’s directors are no longer in a closed period.

Jason Brewer, a director involved with multiple junior mining companies discusses various aspects of the mining industry and companies he’s associated with, particularly focusing on Marula Mining, Neo Energy Metals, and Unicorn Mineral Resources.

Key highlights from the initial part of the video:

• Jason mentions he cannot pick a favorite company to avoid upsetting shareholders. He talks about the growth and progress of all his companies, specifically Marula and Neo.
• Neo recently gained attention due to a significant acquisition of uranium and gold resources in South Africa, which excited the market.
• Neo is working through additional transactions and has strong backing from uranium funds in Europe and North America, which helps alleviate concerns about funding in the current market climate.

The interview continues with Jason Brewer discussing the unique position of his companies, particularly focusing on funding and strategic development:

1. Secured Funding: Jason highlights that his companies have eliminated the uncertainty of funding by securing investments early on. This allows them to focus on project delivery without the need for frequent fundraising, which is a common challenge for junior mining companies. He mentions how some other companies rely on heavily discounted placements, which they avoid through strategic planning.
2. Market Perception: Despite securing funding, there remains skepticism in the market, with investors frequently asking about the next fundraising round. Jason emphasizes that securing a strategic partner allows them to focus on project development in a more streamlined manner without interruptions.
3. Unicorn Mineral Resources: Unicorn is a standard-listed company that has been on the market for just over a year. Jason’s involvement has brought a focus on African projects, which are aligned with Unicorn’s base metals strategy. He mentions a general meeting and ongoing due diligence on a series of projects in Africa, expressing excitement for the company’s future.
4. Marula Mining: Jason talks about Marula, a company focused on battery metals in East and Southern Africa. He mentions several operations, including manganese in East Africa, copper in Tanzania, and lithium. The company is pushing forward with projects like the Kify plant for manganese, a copper mining site in Tanzania, and plans for a large Heap Leach operation by 2025.
