For some reason the entire latter part of the RNS from September 2nd didn't copy over, here it is:
September sign off.
"We extend our sincere appreciation to everyone involved in the current finance-closing activities and also to the Government agencies which over recent years introduced the financial reforms and regulatory waivers we requested to make this possible.
"Tulu Kapi has been specially designed not just for compliance from an ESG viewpoint, but for alignment between international project finance practices and local stakeholders, including the community, all levels of Government and with leading private sector organisations. Local shareholders will include both the public and private sectors.
"Coincident with Tulu Kapi's full launch, Ethiopia is experiencing somewhat of a gold rush - gold exports this year so far jumped from under 10 tonnes of gold to over 30 tonnes. Tulu Kapi stands as a showcase gold project at the heart of Ethiopia's highly prospective Nubian Shield in the Oromia Region. Every aspect of the Project, social, environmental, technical, operational, financial and legal, has been designed in line with the highest international standards.
"What a great accomplishment after so many years of tireless persistence by our hard-working team, to now be fortunate enough to trigger Tulu Kapi's full development at what is perhaps the early stages of a major gold market boom."
