Borneo Resource Investments Ltd. (OTC PINK: BRNE) is gaining attention following its recent change of control, and for good reason. On August 13, 2024, a Share Exchange Agreement was finalized, leading to a change of control, which was officially filed on August 21, 2024. This pivotal event brought C. Robert Ripplinger to the forefront as the new majority controller of BRNE. Investors and industry experts alike are closely watching how this change will influence the company’s future.
Ripplinger is no stranger to the natural resources sector. As the co-founder of Rare Earth Ridge, he has been instrumental in exploring and developing rare earth elements and metals, including lithium and rubidium—key components in today’s tech-driven economy. His leadership extends to Ripplinger Royalties Corporation, where he has overseen a range of projects from oil and gas production to the Teako Gold Project in Northern British Columbia. His portfolio of 14 patents and a history of growing startups into multi-million dollar ventures speaks for itself, demonstrating the expertise and resources he brings to the table.
The change of control at BRNE also seems to have given Ripplinger Royalties a part to play in BRNE's future, as he acquired control of the company both "directly and through Ripplinger Royalties Corporation." This could enable Ripplinger to integrate the resources and projects of Ripplinger Royalties into $BRNE, potentially bringing valuable assets like the Teako Gold Project and expertise in oil and gas production into $BRNE's operations. Such integrations could enhance BRNE’s growth prospects, although the exact outcomes remain to be seen.
The market seems to have responded positively to the news, with BRNE’s stock climbing from 0.0004 on August 20th to hit a high of 0.0012 just yesterday, accompanied by a robust daily trading volume nearly double the average over the past 30 days. With 715,316,242 unrestricted shares and 432,695,214 of those held at DTC, $BRNE presents a relatively limited float, which could lead to more dynamic price movements as investor interest continues to rise.
Under Ripplinger’s guidance, $BRNE may focus on leveraging opportunities within the natural resources sector, particularly in critical minerals. His extensive experience in these areas positions BRNE to potentially capitalize on emerging global economic needs.
This change of control could be the catalyst that BRNE needs. Investors looking for companies with a blend of strong leadership, tight float, and access to the resources required to achieve big things may want to keep this one on their radar as the company navigates this exciting new chapter.
