Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- UK adopted International Accounting Standards
- Reporting scope
- Consolidated group
- Auditor
- Crowe U.K. LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Given the Group's cash position at the year-end (£70,797), these projections include the estimated proceeds of future fundraising deemed necessary within the next 12 months to meet the Company's and the Group's overheads and planned discretionary project expenditures and to maintain the Company and the Group as going concerns. Since the year-end, the Company has successfully raised an additional £550,000. Although the Company has been successful in raising finance in the past, there is no assurance that it will obtain adequate finance in the future. This represents a material uncertainty related to events or conditions which may cast significant doubt on the Group and Company's ability to continue as going concerns and, therefore, that they may be unable to realise their assets and discharge their liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the directors have a reasonable expectation that they will secure additional funding when required to continue meeting corporate overheads and exploration costs for the foreseeable future. Therefore, the directors believe that the going concern basis is appropriate for the preparation of the financial statements.”
