Hi lsetown & all
After further investigation into the costs and speaking with the company over the weekend , the book value in the accounts is the “cost”
SA $13.7m
Which the company expects to recover if the project moves forward (assuming farm out )
Envoi upped info page last paragraph
“The NewAge operated Group would now like to find a partner(s) interested in earning up to 50% of their combined 100% interest by contributing to past costs and funding a new 3D seismic survey (estimated likely to cost US$ 5 to 7 million gross). The new partner will also have the option to earn additional interest by further contributions to an exploration well in the subsequent Licence Period.”

From the accounts RNS 3rd June
2 Included within total assets of $34.8 million (2022: $32.5 million) are $20.1 million Cameroon (2022: $17.4 million) , $907k Namibia (2022: $751k) and $13.8 South Africa (2022: $13.7 million)
“In South Africa, our co-venturer and operator NewAge is continuing to explore the options for acquisition of new 3D seismic data over our deep-water Outeniqua basin lead, which continues to attract interest from third parties. The farm-out process which they have been conducting has now resulted in a serious discussion with one party getting underway, though we cannot yet say if it will result in a transaction, and we cannot provide more detail or comment further while discussions are in process. We will inform investors promptly if a firm agreement is reached.“
