Green Bridge Metals Moves Drill Rigs to Serpentine as Stock Struggles to Hold Gains
Published on 07/08/2026 at 15:21 | Redaktion boerse-global.de
Green Bridge Metals has secured the final regulatory go-ahead for its Serpentine copper-nickel project, yet the market’s reaction has been notably restrained. That disconnect between project momentum and share price is a pattern familiar to junior miners, but it doesn’t change the fact that the drill bit is about to turn.
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources has officially approved the company’s drilling plan, and the response was immediate. Foraco International has been contracted to carry out the first phase of a diamond core drilling program, with a minimum of 1,640 metres slated to begin in August 2026. The campaign will target priority mineralised zones within the Serpentine property, and the company has also scheduled initial metallurgical tests to inform future processing studies. CEO David Suda plans to be on the ground this summer, personally overseeing the transition from permitting to active field operations.
The project already rests on a defined resource base. Inferred resources stand at 279.9 million tonnes grading 0.37% copper, 0.12% nickel and 0.007% cobalt, calculated at a net smelter return cut-off of $10.25 per tonne. A smaller indicated component of 21.6 million tonnes carries higher grades — 0.46% copper, 0.16% nickel and 0.014% cobalt. The August drill program is designed to tighten those numbers and extend the known mineralised zones, feeding directly into updated resource estimates that will underpin eventual mine planning.
Should investors sell immediately? Or is it worth buying Green Bridge Metals?
On the trading front, the shares have been drifting lower despite the positive news flow. At last check the stock sat at €0.10, down 0.41% on the day, and over the past 30 days it has shed 22.58%. That leaves it roughly 17% below its 50-day moving average of €0.12. The stock has also been volatile, with a nearly 67% annualised volatility reading that points to choppy, short-rhythm trading.
Zooming out, the picture is more encouraging. Year-to-date the shares are up 50%, and from the 52-week low of €0.05 they have more than doubled. Still, the current price is a long way from the mid-February peak of €0.23 — a drop of roughly 58%. The market capitalisation stands at around C$34.7 million on 231.25 million outstanding shares.
Part of the recent weakness can be attributed to the typical lull between obtaining a permit and seeing tangible drilling results. That wait should end in August, but assay data will not arrive for several weeks after the first holes are completed. For a stock that has already absorbed a lot of hope, the next catalyst depends on what the core samples reveal.
With copper and nickel both classified as critical minerals for the global energy transition, the Serpentine project sits squarely in a policy-friendly space. The coming drilling campaign will test whether the market’s patience — and the share price — are ultimately rewarded.
