04:58 AM EDT, 08/28/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Tungsten West (TUN.L) said Friday it has repaid in full a short-term loan facility, clearing the way for the debt facility provided by the UK's National Wealth Fund to take effect. The UK-listed miner entered into a $25 million bridging loan facility with an entity controlled by Gregory Coffey in May, providing short-term funding to restart the Hemerdon tungsten and tin mine project in the UK. In August, the company secured a 71 million-pound funding package from the NWF, with part of the proceeds to be used to repay the bridge loan.
