Namib Minerals (NAMM) shares increased by over 43% on Wednesday as gold prices exceeded $5,400 per ounce for the first time following the Federal Reserve's decision to maintain key interest rates. The company, which transitioned from a single-mine operator to a multi-asset gold producer since its Nasdaq listing in June 2025, operates the How Mine in Zimbabwe and plans to restart the Redwing and Mazowe mines in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

Namib's growth strategy focuses on optimizing How Mine's operations, expanding milling capacity from 40,500 tonnes per month to 55,000 tonnes by the second half of 2026, and diversifying through exploration permits targeting copper and cobalt. The company aims for long-term production of 300,000 ounces annually, with preliminary capital estimates of $300 million to $400 million and a funding strategy to minimize shareholder dilution.
