Notes to Editor
KEFI Gold and Copper plc
KEFI is focused primarily on the development of the Tulu Kapi Gold Project in
Ethiopia and its pipeline of highly prospective exploration projects in the
Arabian-Nubian Shield. KEFI targets that production at Tulu Kapi will
generate cash flows for capital repayments, further exploration and dividends
to shareholders.
KEFI Gold and Copper in Ethiopia
Ethiopia is currently undergoing a remarkable transformation both politically
and economically.
The Tulu Kapi gold project in western Ethiopia is being progressed towards
development, following a grant of a Mining Licence in April 2015.
The Company has now refined contractual terms for project construction and
operation. Estimates include open pit gold production of c. 140,000oz pa for a
7-year period. All-in Sustaining Costs (including operating, sustaining
capital and closure but not including leasing and other financing charges)
remain c. US$800/oz. Tulu Kapi's Ore Reserve estimate totals 15.4Mt at 2.1g/t
gold, containing 1.1Moz.
All aspects of the Tulu Kapi (open pit) gold project have been reported in
compliance with the JORC Code (2012) and subjected to reviews by appropriate
independent experts.
A Preliminary Economic Assessment has been published that indicates the
economic attractiveness of mining the underground deposit adjacent to the Tulu
Kapi open pit, after the start-up of the open pit and after positive cash
flows have begun to repay project debts. An area of over 1,000 square
kilometres adjacent to Tulu Kapi has been reserved for exploration by KEFI
upon commencement of development, with a view to adding satellite deposits to
development and production plans.
KEFI Gold and Copper in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
In 2009, KEFI formed Gold & Minerals Limited ("G&M") in Saudi Arabia
with local Saudi partner, ARTAR, to explore for gold and associated metals in
the Arabian-Nubian Shield. KEFI has a 31.2% interest in G&M and is the
operating partner.
ARTAR, on behalf of G&M, holds over 16 Exploration Licence (EL)
applications pending the introduction of the new Mining Law. ELs are renewable
for up to three years and bestow the exclusive right to explore and to obtain
a 30-year exploitation (mining) lease within the area.
