A highly significant lithium result was returned from hole ANDD0199 which tested a nickel target near the VC-30 airborne electromagnetic (VTEM) anomaly. The hole entered a quartz- spodumene pegmatite at a downhole depth of 313.9m, returning a strong lithium intersection of 1.51% Li2O over 7.2m, including an internal high grade zone of 1.87% Li2O over 3.1m. As previously reported, Azure accelerated the lithium exploration program by drilling near nickel sulphide targets in areas where outcropping pegmatites were present and where drilling approvals had already been received. Drill holes ANDD0196, 0197, 0198 and 0199 targeted extensions of the Southern Mineralized Corridor proximal to the VC-30, VC-31 and VC-32 VTEM anomalies. Pegmatites outcrop in the vicinity of each target, and all four holes intersected pegmatites containing lithium mineralization varying from anomalous to high grade. ANDD0199 returned the highest grade lithium intercept of 1.51% Li2O over 7.2m from 313.9m. This hole was collared in an area where Azure's exploration had sampled numerous outcropping pegmatites containing visible coarse-bladed spodumene. Recently received assays returned high lithium grades from many of these samples, including: APRK00940 3.55% Li2O AP0010 prospect; APRK00942 3.96% Li2O AP0010 prospect; APRK00944 3.98% Li2O AP0010 prospect; APRK00947 3.57% Li2O AP0010 prospect; APRK 01012 3.83% Li2O AP0012 prospect. Recent follow-up mapping around the AP0010, 0011 and 0012 prospects has confirmed that spodumene-rich pegmatites outcrop more extensively than previously recognized, enhancing the potential for this area to host a sizeable body of lithium mineralization. The thickest pegmatite intersection was in hole ANDD0198 at VC-31, which drilled a 200m-wide interval of pegmatite with the hole terminating in pegmatite at a downhole depth of 360.6m. Several intervals of anomalous lithium were returned, including 7.4m @ 0.13% Li2O from 158.6m. At VC-32, holes ANDD0196 and ANDD0197 both intersected several shallow pegmatites containing similar levels of lithium mineralisation. All four holes intersected abundant disseminated magnetite within the host ultramafic rocks, explaining the weak VTEM anomalism and indicating low nickel prospectivity at these localities. The Andover pegmatite swarm contains more than 700 outcropping pegmatites occurring in a zone approximately 9km long and up to 4km wide in the central and eastern parts of the project area. The pegmatite bodies typically trend in a southwest to northeast orientation and are generally horizontal to shallow north-dipping. Surface exposures range in size up to several hundred metres across and up to a kilometre in length. Azure has embarked on an accelerated growth strategy to advance the Company's multi- commodity opportunity on the Andover Project. The lithium exploration is being fast-tracked with a team of geologists and technicians dedicated to the operation. An initial drilling program of 30,000m of Reverse Circulation and 10,000m of diamond core drilling will be undertaken to determine the scale and depth potential of the lithium mineralisation already mapped and sampled at surface. Highest priority drill targets are pegmatite outcrops containing high lithium grades at surface and which demonstrate potential for significant volumes of mineralisation. With analytical results from 600 pegmatite samples still pending, it is very likely that many more attractive targets will be identified over the coming months for priority drill testing. Additionally, project-wide geological mapping and rock chip sampling of the, as yet unsampled pegmatites will continue in 2023 and are expected to define further drill targets. Early stage metallurgical, heritage, environmental, hydrological, and flora and fauna studies will also be undertaken.お知らせ • Feb 08Azure Minerals Limited Announces to Deliver the Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for the Ridgeline DepositAzure Minerals Limited to deliver the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") for the Ridgeline Deposit ("Ridgeline"), which is the second Mineral Resource to be defined on the Andover Nickel Project ("Project") (60% Azure /40% Creasy Group), located in the West Pilbara region of Western Australia. Ridgeline contains 1.3Mt @ 1.11% Ni, 0.46% Cu and 0.05% Co for 14,700t of contained Nickel, 6,100t of contained Copper and 640t of contained Cobalt at a cut-off grade of 0.5% Ni (JORC 2012). Global Mineral Resources for the Project, including both the Andover Deposit and the Ridgeline Deposit, now stand at 6Mt @ 1.11% Ni, 0.47% Cu and 0.05% Co for 66,400t of contained Nickel, 27,800t of contained Copper and 3,100t of contained Cobalt at a cut-off grade of 0.5% Ni (JORC 2012). The Project is located 35km southeast of Karratha and immediately south of the town of Roebourne. Excellent infrastructure such as airports, port access, railway, grid power, sealed highway and support services are readily available in the local district. The Ridgeline Deposit is within Exploration Licence E47/2481, which is a joint venture between Azure(60%) and the Creasy Group (40%). The mineralisation at the Ridgeline Deposit is hosted within the same mineralising intrusion that formed the Andover Deposit. The mineralising intrusion comprises a fractionated, low MgO, taxitic and massive gabbro, with websterite xenoliths present locally. It is hosted between two units of porphyritic gabbro, with fine to medium grained leucogabbro present in the hanging wall, and a distinct coarser grained porphyritic gabbro forming the footwall. The taxitic gabbro hosts high nickel tenor disseminated to blebby sulphides with the proportion of sulphide increasing toward the matrix and semi-massive sulphides constituting the higher-grade portions of the deposit. The nickel, copper and cobalt sulphide mineralisation at Ridgeline is present on both the foot wall (West and East shoots) and hanging wall (North shoot) contacts of the mineralising intrusion. Small ultramafic clasts have been observed within the massive and semi-massive sulphide mineralisation. The nickel tenor of the sulphides within taxitic gabbro and massive sulphide accumulations are similar throughout the Ridgeline Deposit. Higher grade copper mineralisation is constrained to the mineralised horizon though is not coincident with the highest nickel grades. Higher copper grades correspond with bands of chalcopyrite distributed within the massive sulphides as well as chalcopyrite-rich veins and stringers at the base of the thickest accumulation of massive sulphides. Drilling has been completed using diamond drilling techniques. Diamond drill core is predominantly HQ size (63.5mm diameter) from surface to a depth of competent drilling conditions and then NQ2 size (50.6mm diameter) to the final depth. Wireline standard tube drilling techniques have been used throughout. Diamond drill core orientations are completed using a Reflex ACTIII electronic core orientation tool every drill run (nominally 6m). Selected intervals of drill core are fully oriented by Azure field staff, marking bottom of core orientation lines to facilitate structural interpretation.お知らせ • Jan 20Azure Minerals Limited Announces Outstanding Lithium Grades at Andover to Drive Quarter 1 DrillingAzure Minerals Limited announced that the Company's ongoing lithium-focused, pegmatite sampling exploration program across the Andover Project (Azure 60% /Creasy Group 40%), located in the West Pilbara region of Western Australia, continues to return very high grades of lithium, up to a maximum value of 4.87% Li2O. Azure has now embarked on an accelerated growth strategy to advance the Company's multi- commodity opportunity on the Andover Project. Lithium exploration will be fast-tracked with a maiden lithium-focused drilling program expected to commence in late February. Nickel exploration and mine development studies on the Andover and Ridgeline Deposits will also continue through 2023. Azure is fast-tracking the lithium exploration with a team of geologists and technicians dedicated to the operation. An initial drilling program of 30,000m of Reverse Circulation (RC) and diamond core drilling will be undertaken to determine the scale and depth potential of the mineralization already mapped and sampled at surface. Highest priority drill targets are pegmatite outcrops containing high lithium grades and which demonstrate potential for significant volumes of mineralization. With analytical results from 600 pegmatite samples still pending, it is very likely that many more attractive targets will be identified over the coming months for priority drill testing. Additionally, project-wide geological mapping and rock chip sampling of the, as yet unsampled pegmatites will continue in 2023 and are expected to define further drill targets. Early stage metallurgical, heritage, environmental, hydrological, and flora and fauna studies will also be undertaken. A total of 709 samples were collected in November-December 2022 as part of the helicopter- supported and ground-based mapping and sampling programs, with 109 samples selected for priority analysis based upon the presence of significant quantities of visible spodumene in the pegmatites, or other interesting geological characteristics. Assays from the remaining 600 samples are expected by mid-February 2023. Spodumene, the preferred lithium mineral, has been visually identified in many of the pegmatites visited, with very distinctive, coarse-bladed spodumene crystals visually obvious on the weathered surfaces of outcrops. As would be expected, there is a strong association between the presence of significant spodumene and higher lithium grades. Assay results from the 109 priority samples include 85 samples grading over 1% Li2O, 73 samples grading over 2% Li20, 47 samples grading over 3% Li2O and 9 samples grading over 4% Li2O. Samples containing high grades of lithium were collected from nine discrete pegmatite bodies with close-spaced sampling carried out at locations where significant quantities of spodumene were visually identified in outcrop. At two prospects, AP0009 and AP0010 high grade Li2O between 1.2% and 4.9 % was identified along outcropping pegmatites of 700m and 400m strike lengths respectively. Given these high grades and the substantial strike lengths of these two pegmatites, they represent two of the higher priority drill targets in the near term.財務状況分析短期負債: AZRM.Fの 短期資産 ( A$119.4M ) が 短期負債 ( A$5.4M ) を超えています。長期負債: AZRM.Fの短期資産 ( A$119.4M ) が 長期負債 ( A$524.2K ) を上回っています。デット・ツー・エクイティの歴史と分析負債レベル: AZRM.Fは負債がありません。負債の削減: AZRM.F 5 年前には負債がありませんでした。貸借対照表キャッシュ・ランウェイ分析過去に平均して赤字であった企業については、少なくとも1年間のキャッシュ・ランウェイがあるかどうかを評価する。安定したキャッシュランウェイ: AZRM.Fは、現在の フリーキャッシュフロー に基づき、3 年以上にわたって十分な キャッシュランウェイ を有しています。キャッシュランウェイの予測: AZRM.Fは、フリー キャッシュ フローが毎年26.6 % の歴史的率で減少し続ける場合、 2.2年間十分なキャッシュ ランウェイを有しています。健全な企業の発掘7D1Y7D1Y7D1YMaterials 業界の健全な企業。View Dividend企業分析と財務データの現状データ最終更新日（UTC時間）企業分析2024/05/10 17:35終値2024/05/10 00:00収益2023/12/31年間収益2023/06/30データソース企業分析に使用したデータはS&P Global Market Intelligence LLC のものです。本レポートを作成するための分析モデルでは、以下のデータを使用しています。データは正規化されているため、ソースが利用可能になるまでに時間がかかる場合があります。パッケージデータタイムフレーム米国ソース例会社財務10年損益計算書キャッシュ・フロー計算書貸借対照表SECフォーム10-KSECフォーム10-Qアナリストのコンセンサス予想+プラス3年予想財務アナリストの目標株価アナリストリサーチレポートBlue Matrix市場価格30年株価配当、分割、措置ICEマーケットデータSECフォームS-1所有権10年トップ株主インサイダー取引SECフォーム4SECフォーム13Dマネジメント10年リーダーシップ・チーム取締役会SECフォーム10-KSECフォームDEF 14A主な進展10年会社からのお知らせSECフォーム8-K* 米国証券を対象とした例であり、非米国証券については、同等の規制書式および情報源を使用。特に断りのない限り、すべての財務データは1年ごとの期間に基づいていますが、四半期ごとに更新されます。これは、TTM（Trailing Twelve Month）またはLTM（Last Twelve Month）データとして知られています。詳細はこちら。分析モデルとスノーフレーク本レポートを生成するために使用した分析モデルの詳細は当社のGithubページでご覧いただけます。また、レポートの使用方法に関するガイドやYoutubeのチュートリアルも掲載しています。シンプリー・ウォールストリート分析モデルを設計・構築した世界トップクラスのチームについてご紹介します。業界およびセクターの指標私たちの業界とセクションの指標は、Simply Wall Stによって6時間ごとに計算されます。アナリスト筋Azure Minerals Limited 0 これらのアナリストのうち、弊社レポートのインプットとして使用した売上高または利益の予想を提出したのは、 。アナリストの投稿は一日中更新されます。1 アナリスト機関Bradley WatsonBell Potter
