Deccan Gold Mines Limited has entered into a definitive Earn-In and Shareholders Agreement to acquire a 51% stake in Logrosan Minera S.L. (LMSL), Spain, for an earn-in investment of EUR 1.76 million. The acquisition targets critical minerals exploration in a highly mineralised region of Spain, specifically for tungsten, tin, rare earth elements (REE), and gold. The transaction is expected to be completed progressively by March 2027 and is subject to statutory approvals in India, Spain, and the UK.
Stake Structure and Investment Terms
The agreement grants Deccan Gold the option to increase its stake from 51% to 75% through a further direct investment of EUR 1.0 million, subject to an independent valuation and achievement of agreed milestones. Subsequently, the parties will fund the project on a pro-rata basis, with non-contributing parties facing dilution. This structure enables Deccan Gold to potentially increase its stake up to 95%, while the existing shareholder, Logrosan Minerals Limited (LMLUK), retains a non-dilutable minimum interest of 5%.

Exploration and Drilling Results
Logrosan Minera S.L. holds granted exploration licenses, including the 37 km² Logrosan project and the 40 km² Maria project. Greenfield exploration work, including ground magnetic surveys and soil sampling, has identified targets for tungsten, gold, tin, phosphorous, REE, and Nb–Ta. A drilling programme is currently in progress to define mineralised zones. Previous diamond core drilling intersected multiple veins of potentially economic scheelite (tungsten) mineralisation, with best results including 3m @ 0.42% WO₃ from 258m and 9m @ 0.32% WO₃ from 192.2m.
Dr. Hanuma Prasad Modali, Managing Director, stated that securing operational control of a prospective tungsten project strengthens exposure to a mineral critical for defence and advanced manufacturing. He noted that access to critical minerals is a key driver of long-term economic competitiveness.
