Minbos Resources

Minbos Resources shares are soaring 22% today to 9.3 cents despite no news from the company. The company is developing the Cabinda Phosphate Project and the Capanda Green Ammonia Project.

The MOU with Angola's National electricity network operator has created a number of green project global firsts.

The Minbos share price has slid 15% in the last year.
