Deep Yellow steady on uranium optimism

Deep Yellow Limited’s shares have been trading around A$1.57, holding steady over the past week but still shy of the 52-week high of A$1.87 set in July.

The stock has delivered a year-to-date return of more than 60 per cent, reflecting renewed investor confidence in uranium as the world revisits nuclear energy as part of its decarbonisation strategy.

Market sentiment towards Deep Yellow remains broadly positive, supported by analyst forecasts placing the stock’s target price between A$1.86 and A$2.15 over the next year.

The optimism is tempered by the company’s decision in April 2025 to delay its Final Investment Decision for the Tumas Uranium Project.

Management cited uranium prices that had not yet reached levels needed to justify large-scale greenfield construction.

While the delay has injected some caution into trading, the company has continued with early works and engineering to keep the project on track for commissioning when market conditions improve. Technical indicators suggest that the stock’s short-term momentum could face resistance if it drops below A$1.55; however, maintaining current levels leaves room for an 18 to 20 per cent upside if the uranium market strength continues.

In contrast, B2Gold Corporation has been trading at around CAD 4.93 on the Toronto Stock Exchange, down 5.6 per cent in the latest session despite hitting a 52-week high earlier in the year.

The gold producer’s second-quarter results showed substantial production volumes and healthy margins, helping to sustain a modest two-week gain of almost three per cent.

The upcoming Back River project, expected to add approximately 1.2 million ounces of gold production, has bolstered investor confidence.

Technical analysis points to a “buy” signal, with support levels holding near CAD 4.75 and resistance at CAD 4.99.

However, B2Gold faces headwinds in the form of a declining earnings trend, which has averaged a 56.7 per cent drop annually, even as revenues have grown by about 5.4 per cent a year.

For both companies, commodity price movements will play a defining role in shaping investor sentiment.

Deep Yellow’s fortunes are tied closely to the uranium price rally.

At the same time, B2Gold’s share performance will continue to mirror gold market trends and its ability to deliver on growth projects without eroding margins.

Andrada Mining Limited and Tower Resources plc, two London-listed companies with significant operations in Namibia, have had an eventful few months, each advancing projects that underscore Namibia’s growing importance in both the critical minerals and energy sectors.

Andrada Mining, listed on the AIM under the ticker ATM and also on the Namibian Stock Exchange, operates the expansive Uis mine in the Erongo Region.

The asset hosts one of Namibia’s largest tin reserves and is also rich in lithium, tantalum, and rubidium across roughly 19,700 hectares of pegmatite-hosted resources.

The company has recently secured a new source of high-grade feedstock from the Goantagab ore body, which is expected to supply up to 240,000 tonnes of ore annually, grading 1.5% tin.

This agreement aims to boost throughput and improve production efficiency at Uis.

To finance ongoing upgrades at the mine, Andrada is raising N$143 million (£5.9 million), with proceeds earmarked for facility improvements and operational scaling.

For the 12 months under review, Andrada reported revenues of about £20 million but posted a net loss of £9 million.

Despite these losses, market analysis suggests the company is trading at roughly 90% below estimated fair value, with investor interest sustained by the potential of its critical mineral portfolio.

Meanwhile, Tower Resources, also listed on AIM as TRP, is advancing its offshore oil and gas exploration in the Walvis Basin through its Namibian subsidiary.

The company recently increased its stake in the PEL96 license to 60% after acquiring an additional 5% interest for USD 375,000.

Current partners include Prime Global (25%), Namcor (10%), and ZM (5%).

In January 2025, Tower secured a farm-out agreement with Prime Global Energies, which will contribute USD 4.375 million in funding.

This capital injection will support exploration activities across Tower’s portfolio, including Namibia, and will help finance future drilling campaigns.

Basin modelling in PEL96 has identified promising hydrocarbon prospects, enhancing the asset’s exploration potential.

Tower’s focus remains on maturing these prospects to drill-ready status, positioning itself to capitalise on growing offshore interest in Namibia’s oil and gas sector.

Together, Andrada and Tower illustrate the diversity of Namibia’s resource investment landscape — one anchored in the energy transition through critical minerals, the other in hydrocarbon exploration that could bolster the country’s energy independence and export potential.
