Ethiopian Investment Commission Commissioner, Lelissie Neme stated that the government is ready to provide all the necessary support to international investors investing in Ethiopia.

Speaking at the opening of the “Invest Ethiopia 2023”, an investment promotion forum opened at Addis Ababa today, the commissioner indicated that Ethiopia has an investment comparative advantage owing to its infrastructure development, Industrial Parks development, effective logistics, conducive investment policy, and directives, and skilled labor.

Tempted to contact him to ask if he knows what is happening with kefi joking apart hopefully something will come out from kefi today or during the conference ideally or before the end of the month.

Pete It depends on how you grade it really by production, market cap,Nav resource base and so on.Personally I see a mid tier as bigger than a small miner or explorer but not quite as big as a high tier miner then you have the huge international miners that everyone knows. Would say once you get over the 100 to 120 million dollar market cap continuously you are no longer a small miner from harrys past comments he is looking at 200 to 300 million dollars and kefi being a midcap.

I admit this kind of goes out the window when you compare kefi To Amak (slide 29 below) with a market cap of 1.3 billion but i would argue Amak is over valued not that I would complain if kefi had half their market cap lol. Certainly with kefis ever expanding resource base 200 to 300 million market cap is achievable, especially on the back of a Saudi listing.

Doubt that harry or the company are experts on Sudanese politics or need to be. All you have to do is look at a map to see the border is along north western Ethiopia and neither side in the civil war have an interest in fighting anyone else. Most likely Ethiopian involvement is if there is a peace deal that overseen by the African union and Ethiopia and other African countries lend some troops to over see it. Probably the biggest thing Ethiopia and all the nations bordering Sudan have to worry about is a refugee problem.

Confirmation from both sides now of upcoming peace talks think it will take some time but they will be successful. For kefi means less security concerns in the future and likely less costs and can only help get TK over the line now.

The Ethiopian approvals are the key turning point once we get that we are there really and if the Ethiopian government are part of the Umbrella agreement why would they not follow through shortly afterwards. Means to me the next few weeks maybe even next week with the conference are crucial.

Neither side is the good side in Sudan its two generals who were allies in blocking civilian democracy after the last military dictator got toppled fighting over who is top dog. Meet the new boss same as the old boss.

"It is also bordered by Belarus to the north; by Poland, Slovakia, and Hungary to the west; and by Romania and Moldova to the southwest" run away from Europe!

Copper is hot right now. Mining and trading giant Glencore is seeking to buy Canadian copper and coal miner Teck Resources for $23 billion.

The US’s Newmont has raised its bid for Australian gold and copper company Newcrest to $19.5 billion.

Middle East countries too are interested in the energy transition’s crucial red metal...

With Edision hint and the bit from kefi talking about clearing the decks for Presentations in Addis Riyadh and Dubai company probably want a umbrella deal before the conference.

"However, the new mining minister is reported to be serious – to the point of being enthusiastic – about developing KEFI’s Tulu Kapi project and the three substantive pre-conditions for final approval (the two banks having equal protections in the country, government installation of elevated security and the right for KEFI to administer its own banking and capital servicing arrangements) have been met or (in the case of the third) appear in the process of formalisation."
