Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.rBakyrchik Gold jumped 30p to 183p after two businessmen, Robert Friedland and Johannes Kotjo, decided to pump nearly pounds 22m into the struggling group developing a mine in the former Soviet Union. They are buying shares at 150p with options at 200p-220p. The company has run into technical difficulties. Some, however, wonder whether the new cash will be enough to provide the answer to its problems. At one time the shares touched 190p yesterday. They were floated two years ago at 120p, quickly hitting a peak of 370p.
rThe legal row between Simon Engineering and struggling Butte Mining rumbles on, with Butte filing High Court claims for more than pounds 100m. Simon says Butte's actions are "misconceived". Butte, little more than a litigation play, held at 1.75p.
