In a move reflecting growing institutional interest in the mining sector, BlackRock Inc. has increased its stake in Greatland Resources Limited to 5.77% of total voting rights. According to reports, the asset manager crossed a notifiable threshold by raising its position from 5.59%, now holding a total of 38.97 million voting rights. This holding is comprised of 5.45% in direct shares and 0.31% via financial instruments.
This investment comes as emerging mining firms gain momentum, with major institutions seeking to secure positions in strategic gold and copper assets. Compared to UK-listed peers, Greatland has maintained its appeal despite commodity price volatility, as BlackRock's backing is viewed as a positive signal for investor confidence in the company's flagship Havieron project per market data.
