Overview: Dreadnought Resources Limited is an Australian mineral exploration company with a market capitalization of A$60.04 million.

Market Cap: A$60.04M
Dreadnought Resources, with a market cap of A$60.04 million, is a pre-revenue mineral exploration company focused on the Mangaroon Critical Metals Project in Western Australia. Recent EIS co-funded grant awards underscore the potential of its Gifford Creek Carbonatite for critical metals discoveries. Despite being unprofitable and experiencing shareholder dilution, Dreadnought remains debt-free and has sufficient short-term assets to cover liabilities. The management team is experienced, but the company faces challenges such as limited cash runway and increased losses over five years. Its removal from key indices may impact investor sentiment despite promising project developments.
