(Alliance News) - Landore Resources Ltd on Thursday said its first-half results were "in line with expectations", as it posted a sharply narrowed loss on lower exploration expenses.

At present, Landore has no debt and has sufficient capital to complete the current exploration programme and have working capital up to the end of November.

Shares in the company were untraded at 0.77 pence each in London on Thursday morning.
For the six months to June 30, the company recorded a pretax loss of GBP697,542 versus the GBP1.3 million loss recorded a year ago period. No revenue was generated in either financial period.
