Red Emperor Resources posted a deeper annual loss, owing to a hefty exploration write off in Alaska.

Pre-tax losses for the year through June amounted to A$10.3m, compared to loss of A$0.7m on-year, and included an A$8.4m exploration write off.

The company had an interest in the Winx-1 exploration well in Alaska operated by 88 Energy, which indicated low oil saturations.

Evaluation of data acquired at Winx-1 was ongoing ahead of completion of required technical and evaluation work for the 2020/2021 drilling season.
