Up on the winners list Thursday was Terramin Australia (ASX:TZN) which announced it is closer to developing one of the largest zinc and lead orebodies in the world after the Algerian mining regulator issued a mining permit for the 49%-owned Tala Hamza project.

The permit was  the final regulatory, financial and environmental hoop TZN had to jump though prior to development.

TZN said the permit allows for the processing of 2Mtpa of ore, instead of the 1.3Mtpa envisaged in the 2018 mining study “indicating that project returns will be enhanced over the anticipated 20+ year mine life”.

You can get all the low down about TZN in Reuben Rockin’ Adams: Resources Top 5.

Also in the numbers,  WAY2VAT (ASX:W2V) the a fintech company that provides a fully automated end to end VAT/GST reclaim solution. 

With a market cap circa $2.65 m, W2V saw annual revenue growth of 142% during the March quarter, with transaction volume up 42%, cash receipts up 44% and revenue margin increasing 10 ppts. 

The company said this was due to the increasing ratio of foreign travel and expense claims in the total submissions which attract a higher commission rate for Way2VAT as opposed to domestic accounts payable, and higher-margin DevoluIVA revenues.

They also announced that cornerstone investor Thorney Investment Group, the private investment group of rich-lister Alex Waislitz, which also manages Thorney Technologies (ASX:TEK), had become a major contributor to its latest $3.54 million capital raise.

W2V said Thorney Investment Group had committed to subscribe for $1 million worth of shares under the entitlement offer.

The funds are expected to increase focus on sales execution and revenue growth on VAT reclaim for travel expenses and accounts payable product suite and Smart Spend Debit MasterCard.

“With recent capital raise activity and increasing levels of growth compared to prior corresponding periods, Way2VAT is in a position to expedite its path to profitability,” founder and CEO Amos Simantov said. 

“Our increasing revenue margin and reduced lag times between clients completing transactions, tax authorities processing claims, and Way2VAT receiving refunds and commissions shows that travel, business and government activity is returning to more normal post-Covid levels.”
