  • 16 July 2025 - Gold explorer WIA Gold (ASX:WIA) announced a resource update for its flagship Kokoseb gold project in Namibia, which grew contained gold ounces by 38% to 2.93 Moz Au @ 1.0 g/t and paves the way for a scoping study that is underway. This decent grade and large size with a strip ratio that also looks decent (appears to be roughly 3 or 4 by visual inspection of cross section) should bode well for economics in the upcoming scoping study, which helps WIA trade at premium to most peers - around the upper-quartile-range of our 93-company gold explorer peer group at a market cap/oz of US$84/oz, as it advances towards graduating to developer peer group with scoping study underway now, and then with a DFS in 2026.
