[SMM Tungsten News] UK-based Tungsten West secures an additional £4.3 million in financing to restart the development of the world's second-largest tungsten mine. The Plymouth-based company is expected to complete debt and equity financing by the end of 2025 to restart the Hemerdon tungsten-tin mine. The mine, which had been in operation for three years before its suspension in 2018, now boasts a complete beneficiation plant and infrastructure. With the surge in demand for strategic metals, a feasibility study is expected to be released in the coming months.
