SXX announce the signing of a major take or pay offtake agreement in China with Huaken International ("Huaken") for the purchase of polyhalite from the York Potash Project ("the Project"). Huaken was established in 1992 as a subsidiary of China State Farms Agribusiness Group and later registered as a joint stock company in 1997 and authorised to operate an import and export businesses including fertilizers, rubbers, steels and other products. Of note, Huaken is one of a restricted list of companies in China, with the right to import potassium fertilizer. The agreement is for a period of seven years from first production and pricing is based on a formula linked to inputs that are consistent with a number of the Company's other offtake agreements. Pricing is currently in line with previous market guidance provided by the Company. The volume of the contract is for 500,000 tonnes in year seven (ramping up following construction of the Project). Huaken is purchasing the polyhalite to use it as a soil conditioner in China. Studies have demonstrated that in addition to its proven role as a multi nutrient fertilizer, high quality polyhalite can also play a valuable role as a soil conditioner. Research undertaken on polyhalite by the Company has shown the benefits of adding it to highly acidic soils (of particular relevance to large areas of China). Polyhalite has shown to benefit soils, making them more resistant to soil erosion and also to have demonstrated suppressive effects on soil borne pathogens. Chris Fraser, Managing Director and CEO of Sirius, comments: "We are delighted to sign this important agreement with our partners in China and we look forward to working very closely with them for the long-term. Polyhalite's multi nutrient qualities have useful soil conditioning properties and it can assist in helping countries like China restore agricultural productivity and maintain food security for future generations."

is pleased to announce that, further to previous updates on the status of repairs to its flagship vessel, the Sierra Queen, in West Africa, the works to the prop shaft have now been completed and the vessel is back in the water commencing sea trials. Commenting on the update Peter Fowler, Chief Executive of Westminster Group, said: "I am pleased to be able to report that the vessel is now back in the water and will be undertaking sea trials prior to commencing operations. The Sierra Queen is an impressive vessel and whilst the repairs have taken far longer than anyone would have liked due to numerous local challenges, once she is operational she will be providing a much needed and eagerly awaited service. "Now that the Ebola crisis has ended and new and existing airlines are expanding services, passenger numbers are increasing and in this respect it is encouraging to see direct services from the UK have once again commenced with a new carrier Fly Salone who started operations this month. The increasing passenger numbers mean that the fast, safe and efficient transfer service offered by the Sierra Queen between the airport and mainland is expected to be in high demand."

MTV has reached agreement and signed a Memorandum of Understanding with ABT Africa to provide educational content to tablet users in South Africa, with possible further expansion throughout Africa to follow. The first market for the new service will be schoolchildren with a specific focus on helping to bridge the digital divide for those in historically disadvantaged areas. Motive will be providing specialized tuners and technology to enable content services to be received by children in areas with limited broadband connectivity. Motive's opportunity is to license and supply TabletTV and Content Express technology to ABT who will co-develop and market solutions specifically designed to cater for the South African Education market. The South African government has already begun the investment in rolling out Tablets to school children in different communities to leverage the use of technology in improving the quality of Education for all. The TabletTV and Content Express technology will enhance the functionality of these Tablets for Educational use and increase the number of services available. The Internet is not yet sufficiently pervasive and reliable in South Africa to be able to provide continuous connectivity to the tablets. Motive's patented technology is uniquely suited to address this problem by enabling content reception via both the Internet and the digital broadcast network, regardless of the Internet bandwidth availability. ABT Africa is a South African private limited company active in the design and manufacture of electronic consumer devices and the development of custom applications for various content services. The business will provide Motive with income from royalties, and licence fees based on the number of users in addition to up-front non-recurring engineering fees to customize the Motive technology. The Company estimates the value of this opportunity to Motive to be more than $2.5 million in revenues. After developing the educational platform in South Africa, ABT and Motive intend to roll out the availability of the platform to the rest of Africa. Leonard M Fertig, CEO of Motive commented, "The educational market in South Africa and Africa in general is a very large one and this application of existing Motive technology serves to further exemplify the opportunities and value in what the Company has developed. In addition to being able to exploit the Company's technology in a large and scalable market, Motive has the advantage of local knowledge and relationships, having worked in South Africa since December 2013." Muzi Makhaye, CEO of ABT Africa commented, "ABT Africa has a strong ethos around using digital technology to improve the lives of Africans. This partnership with Motive provides an exciting opportunity to leverage the digital migration programme to introduce innovative technology and applications that can enable the development of our country's future leaders. Technology in Education is a key opportunity for ABT Africa and this venture is critical in our company's growth plans for the future."

Game up for MTV. It has no room to manouver now ! Motive Television PLC (AIM: MTV) announces that discussions with holders of convertible loan notes ("CLN Holders") in the Company remain ongoing. The Company originally issued £4,750,000 of fixed interest Convertible Loan Notes ("CLNs") in October 2010. As previously announced on 30 June 2015, in the Company's annual results for the year ended 31 December 2014, and on 28 August 2015 in the Company's half-yearly results for the six months ended 30 June 2015, the Company currently has a balance of outstanding CLNs with a face value of £2,978,396 which mature on 31 December 2015. The Company has previously announced that these CLNs would need to be extended or further funds raised to pay them down if agreement with the CLN Holders could not be reached. The Directors believe that progress has been made with the CLN Holders, however if negotiations do not reach a positive conclusion, or further funding cannot be secured in the event the CLN's are repayable, the Company would have to take action to reduce its cost base and to consider whether the Company would be able to continue to trade. The Directors are confident that further injections of funds can be secured to fund the Company's working capital position and that further revenue generating contracts will be won. http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/news/market-news/market-news-detail/12609975.html

[KEFI] the gold exploration and development company with projects in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, is pleased to report that the Board of KEFI has approved the development funding plan for Tulu Kapi Gold Project, which includes equity capital for development to be raised at project level, rather than at the London-listed PLC level, to minimise value dilution for Company shareholders. In addition the approved plan has reduced the estimated peak funding requirement. KEFI's discussions with the shortlisted construction contractors, including further opportunities for value-engineering, has yielded potential reductions in the peak funding requirement from the US$130 million estimated in the 2015 Definitive Feasibility Study ("2015 DFS") to US$120 million as had previously been foreshadowed. This is despite the planned gold production being increased to an average of c. 100,000 oz per annum, as announced on 7 September 2015. Debt-style funding facilities may be up to US$100 million via a senior secured syndicate arrangement. A portion of these facilities is likely to have a tenor greater than the eight years proposed by conventional project finance banks, which is considered prudent due to volatility in markets generally. Planned contractor and financier commitment levels have been incorporated into estimated project cash flows. The remaining equity investment to develop Tulu Kapi is estimated to be c. US$20 million (in addition to the equity of US$65 million invested in the past). KEFI plans to source this capital as minority equity investment in the project subsidiary, to be priced at a valuation based on Tulu Kapi's Net Present Value, which is c. US$90 million at current gold prices. The Company is in advanced discussions with several interested parties, including the Government of Ethiopia. Formalisation of this funding plan, which requires multi-party agreement of detailed documentation with the mine contractor, construction contractor, financiers and the Government of Ethiopia, is scheduled for Q4 2015. KEFI and the Government have already formalised many of the principal terms within the detailed Mining Agreement executed in April 2015, which reflected the key outcomes of the preliminary negotiations to that point with contractors and financiers. Harry Anagnostaras-Adams, Executive Chairman of KEFI, commented: "KEFI has, in the two years since acquiring Tulu Kapi, overhauled all project development plans and permitted the development of Tulu Kapi. Significantly, project development funding has been more than halved to US$120 million. KEFI is continuing to move forward according to the plan as agreed with the Government of Ethiopia and as laid out in the past to our shareholders. We look forward to updating shareholders upon the finalisation of funding and the commencement of construction by year end."

[KEFI]the gold exploration and development company with projects in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, is pleased to report an increase in planned production at Tulu Kapi to an average of c. 100,000 oz per annum over a 10-year period, compared with the previous estimate of an average of c. 75,000 oz per annum over a 13-year period, and that a winning bidder has emerged from the tender for the mining contract. Expansion in planned production The expansion in anticipated production is a result of a planned increase, based on the Company's ongoing discussions with potential project contractors, in process plant capacity from 1.2Mtpa to 1.5Mtpa. Based on the bids received from construction contractors, this expanded plant capacity does not increase the assumed level of funding required to develop Tulu Kapi. The construction contractors short-listed from the eleven candidates have now been invited to submit fixed price bids for the larger plant. This c. 33% increase in planned average annual gold production has no effect on the open-pit mine plan as set out in the recently-released 2015 Definitive Feasibility Study ("2015 DFS") as the 2015 DFS envisaged processing stockpiles over the final three years of 13 years of gold production. However, KEFI expects it to reduce All-in Sustaining Costs from c. US$779/oz (estimated in the 2015 DFS) to c. US$760/oz. The planned process plant expansion increases Tulu Kapi's after-tax Net Present Value at the start of construction from US$125 million to US$147 million (approximately £92 million), based on unleveraged cash flows, a gold price of US$1,250/oz and an after-tax discount rate of 8%. At the current spot price of US$1,122/oz, Net Present Value is US$90 million (approximately £56 million) on the same basis. Selection of mining contractor A winning bidder has emerged from the five short-listed candidates who were asked to bid on a 6-year mine operation contract. The five candidates had previously been reduced from ten candidates, all of whom are international leaders and experienced in Africa. The tender's result has also re-affirmed the assumptions underlying the cash flow estimates for the period of the planned banking arrangements covering two years of construction plus six years of operation. The winning bidder and the nearest under bidders have been invited to bid for an expanded scope of work to include the pre-mining site earthworks and the full 10 years of mining the open pit. This is expected to further improve the mining cost per tonne. The Company will then formalise an appointment. Harry Anagnostaras-Adams, Executive Chairman, said: "We are pleased to report an increase in Tulu Kapi's planned gold production and, in particular, that it is likely to have a favourable impact on the All-in Sustaining Costs and cash flow, thereby further improving the economics of the project. "The emergence of the least-cost mining contractor, who will now need to bid for an expanded scope of work, also represents an important step towards reaching the development stage. We look forward to being able to report further improvements in project economics once the final bids have been received."
