Metals One Plc (LSE:MET1) has realised a significant return after selling 7,000,000 shares in CleanTech Lithium for £0.91 million, representing roughly a 159% gain compared with its weighted average acquisition cost since the company first invested in August 2025. Even after the transaction, Metals One continues to hold 5,850,000 shares in CleanTech Lithium, equivalent to about 2.88% of the company’s issued share capital. In addition, it retains 20,000,000 warrants with an exercise price of 6 pence, valid until August 2030, ensuring continued exposure to the lithium developer’s future progress.
Managing director Daniel Maling noted that the timing of the sale aligns with recent advancements at CleanTech Lithium’s Laguna Verde project in Chile, where the award of a key operating contract represents a meaningful step forward for the project. By locking in a portion of the gains while maintaining both an equity stake and a sizeable warrant position, Metals One has balanced profit-taking with the opportunity to benefit from further project development. The strategy highlights the company’s approach to capital recycling while remaining invested in the expanding critical minerals sector.
