Hamak Gold

Hamak Gold Limited (LSE: HAMA) is a UK-listed exploration company with a dual-strategy focus on high-potential gold assets in West Africa and a Bitcoin Treasury Management (BTM) policy. The company's primary exploration asset is the Nimba project in Liberia, a region considered highly prospective for gold. This 831 km² license is located near major gold mines and has shown promising drill results, including intercepts of 20 meters at 7g/t gold.

The company was admitted to the main market of the London Stock Exchange on March 1, 2022. In 2025, Hamak Gold entered into a significant joint venture with the Australian-listed company First Au Limited (ASX: FAU). This partnership provides full funding for an ongoing 2,500m diamond drilling program at the Nimba project, with First Au earning up to a 70% interest in the project. This business model allows Hamak Gold to maintain exposure to exploration success while minimizing direct costs.

In a strategic pivot in 2025, Hamak Gold became one of the first UK Main Market-listed companies to adopt a Bitcoin Treasury Management strategy, allocating a portion of its capital to Bitcoin as a long-term reserve asset. This move aims to diversify its balance sheet, provide a hedge against economic uncertainty, and offer investors regulated exposure to both gold and digital assets within a single corporate structure. The company is led by a board with experience in mineral exploration, finance, and digital asset strategy, including Executive Chairman Nick Thurlow and prominent investment figure Nicola Horlick as a Non-Executive Director.
