1.7Moz can grow to >2.5Moz, production 140koz to 200koz8 Jul 2020 09:39
KEFI is confident that u/g drilling where avg grade 5.7g/t, is capable of increasing the resource quickly. The 140koz pa initial production target can rise to 200koz pa. All this excludes satellite deposit. The open pit NPV is x10 mcap of £18m and including the underground, closer to 19x.
KEFI is being smart - get into production efficiently and quickly with the open pit, knowing there is upside to expand into with cashflows. Larger players will also recognise the model, as will institutional investors.
I suspect others interested, mining or exploring in Arabian Nubian Shield will be interested in Tulu Kapi.
