BEOWULF MINING PLC

What BEOWULF MINING PLC does

Beowulf Mining plc is a Nordic-focused multi-commodity exploration and development company headquartered in London with operational assets in Sweden, Finland, and Kosovo. The company's flagship asset is the Kallak iron ore project in northern Sweden, which holds a Measured and Indicated resource of 132 million tonnes at 27.8% iron content and was granted an exploitation concession by the Swedish Government in March 2022. Beowulf also owns the Grafintec GAMP (Graphite Anode Materials Plant) project in Finland, designed to produce Coated Spherical Graphite (CSPG) for lithium-ion battery anodes, supported by a 2023 Pre-Feasibility Study reporting a $242 million post-tax NPV at an 8% discount rate and a 39% IRR. In Kosovo, Beowulf operates the Vardar Minerals portfolio targeting lead-zinc-silver, gold, and copper exploration ground.

The company is pre-revenue and listed on London's AIM market under ticker BEM, with Swedish Depositary Receipts trading on Spotlight Stock Market under BEO. Following a £4.3 million strategic placement in July 2026, Bacchus Capital Advisers holds approximately 58.7% of the company as the controlling shareholder. Headcount sits in the 11-50 range, with offices in London (corporate), Vaasa (Finland), and Jokkmokk (Sweden).

Beowulf's intended business model is to advance its mineral resources into production and sell iron ore concentrate to European steel producers and CSPG to European battery cell manufacturers under future offtake arrangements. The company has secured a downstream processing technology pathway through its partnership with Dorfner Anzaplan for CSPG production. Current operations are funded through equity placements and grant/loan applications, including a pending application for a €7 million loan and €232,000 grant from Business Finland for the Grafintec project, and CEO Ed Bowie succeeded Kurt Budge following the 2026 Bacchus investment.
