Recorded on July 7 2026 live at the Rick Rule Symposium 2026
Power Metal Resources PLC
AIM: POW
OTCQB: POWMF
Power Metal Resources CEO Sean Wade joins Andy Millette to explain the company’s project-incubator model and why Rick Rule describes it as a mining merchant bank. Wade details how Power Metal deploys capital into early-stage exploration assets, seed investments, joint ventures and public-company formations with the goal of crystallising value and redeploying returns. He discusses the Guardian Metal Resources transaction, where Power Metal invested approximately £1.9 million and later achieved approximately £22.8 million through two disposals. The conversation also covers the company’s Botswana nickel-sulfide drilling, exposure to uranium, tungsten, gold and other critical minerals, and the role of licensing and permitting in African exploration. Wade explains how stronger commodity markets, improved investor engagement and a more active IPO environment can accelerate the company’s capital flywheel. He also outlines Power Metal’s approach to capital discipline, management teams, pre-IPO opportunities and royalty investments. #Millettian
