QUARTERLY REPORT ON ACTIVITIES January to March 2016During the Quarter the Company continued with its plan to keep operating costs at a minimum, while holding its investment in Syrah Resources Limited (ASX: SYR) as Syrah continues towards development.
Copper Strike currently has no exploration interests.
Copper Strike owns 11 million shares in Syrah Resources Limited, which is a holding of just under 5%. The Company continues to be pleased with progress being made at Syrah in relation to its Balama Graphite Project.
Copper Strike believes that the share price of Syrah has considerable upside now that Syrah has raised the equity capital necessary for construction of Balama, initial offtake arrangements have been announced and construction has commenced. As such the directors continue to be of the view that it is in shareholders' best interest for the Company to continue to hold this investment to ensure that the potential upside in relation to the development of the world class Balama Project is reflected within the Syrah share price.
Expenditure for the Quarter was $63,000. As of 31 March 2016 Copper Strike had approximately $852,000 in the bank. Expenditure going forward is expected to be approximately $100,000 per Quarter, excluding one off items.
