KEFI has announced that it has made “considerable progress” in finalising the US$140m infrastructure lease facility for the development of Tulu Kapi in Ethiopia. The announcement follows the release of KEFI’s updated financial projections for Tulu Kapi in late October, based (for the first time) on a c 25% increase in ore processing capacity to 1.9-2.1Mtpa. It has also reconfirmed the project’s timeline, with construction anticipated in FY18-19 and commissioning at the end of 2019, and a residual equity/mezzanine requirement of US$20m (in line with our expectations).
