Year over year the share price is up 223%, with a massive 162% rise in the last three months. The trading volume first spiked in August following the announcement of the Sybella rare earth discovery with speculation it could be a “world first” in its extraction process. The share price spiked again on the announcement the rare earth deposits at Sybella are “near surface and potentially recoverable with a cost effective weak-acid solution.”
The pre-spike trading volume suggests Red Metals had fallen under the radar of most Aussie investors. A comparison with an investor favorite with a recent rare earths discovery – Meteoric Resources (ASX: MEI) – suggests the same. Although MEI has a larger market cap, the share price of $0.18 is comparable. MEI’s ninety day average trading volume is 6,006,775 shares per day compared to 719,873 share per day for RDM shares.
