Is the likely outcome that we move sideways for 2 months and then after the strategic review sell our share of the Saudi assets to Artar for .006p the market capital of Kefi.Not what I invested in Kefi for. |
And the sooner the chance of dividends. |
In Rough, round figures based on AICs of $1100:
At $2100 - margin is $1000 and NPV 6.9p
At $2600 - margin is $1500 and NPV 10.5 p - approximately 1.5 x 6.9p
At $3000 - margin is $1900 and NPV would be about 13.1p
At $3500 - margin is $2400 and NPV would be about 16.6p
The precise figures will vary a bit, not least because AICs (and AISCs) include the government royalty of 7% and, so, the costs do increase with increasing price of gold.
There is also the question of what effect the gold-linked bonds (to be issued but not specified) will have.
On the positive side, the higher the operating margin, the quicker the repayment of the bank debt and, thus, the increased profitability because of the faster reduction of debt service costs. |
If considering an investment, there are certain words/statements that may put you looking to the future whereas, they can also be totally misleading:-
Projected
Seeking approval
Expected
Readiness
Sound familiar?
Then to be comparing gold prices and expected profits whilst some two years off
first dig, pie in the sky, especially when shovels are missing from the site? |
TA is $100k or $1m possible for bitcoin |
What would anyone pay for it? Pretty much nothing is the only conclusion. If this was a private enterprise, it would have been moth balled and eventually written off 10+ years ago.
It would simply be a case of taking it off their hands. |
If i am reading this right in todays RNS and presentation they state Tulu Kapi revenue will be £101M per year for a minimum of ten years,that is based on $2600 gold price.And Kefi expected to retain an 80% stake,have to say i am looking at this as a potential portfolio maker now.I have held a smallish amount of these for a few months now but think i might go large shortly and maybe in the SIPP.Note they say in RNS that the 6.9p to 10.5p valuation is based on $2100 gold and not the current near $2700 and probably going higher.Surely this has TAKEOVER written all over it ????
From Rns :
"Tulu Kapi's high grades and high recoveries offer the potential to repay all project finance debt from the estimated net cash flows of the first full year of production, at US$2,600/oz gold price. Moreover, at US$2,100/oz to 2,600/oz gold, Project NPV to KEFI shareholders is 6.9 to 10.5 pence per share, 12-17 times the current share price, ignoring our other assets." |
Placing .. who are these loons,
It's like saying a club have just signed Messi, then proclaiming he'll be on the transfer list a week later, fekin idiots |
there's going to be one hell of a dilutive placing in the offing. |
 AMAK reports 181% rise in net profit for nine months
(Saudi mining)
Maaden 9M 2024 profit soars to SAR 2.98B; Q3 at SAR 971M
Riyadh, November 05, 2024, SPA -- The Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources announced the winners of mining tenders, awarding exploration licenses at six mining sites in various regions of the Kingdom.
These sites contain a range of base and precious metals, including gold, silver, zinc, and copper. The licensing is granted as part of the Accelerated Exploration Program, which aims to expedite the exploration and utilization of Saudi Arabia's mineral wealth, valued at SAR9.3 trillion.
The ministry said that ANS Exploration and Odyssey Metals limited consortium won an exploration license for the Umm Qusur site, in Riyadh, which contains gold, silver, lead, and zinc.
Gold and Minerals Ltd Company won an exploration license for the Wadi Ad Dawsh site, in Aseer, which contains deposits of gold, silver, and copper.
The Auking and Barg Alsaman mining company consortium won an exploration license for the Shaib Marqansite, in Riyadh, with copper, silver, and gold deposits.
The Metal Bank Limited and mining holding company consortium won an exploration license for the Wadi Al Junah site, in Aseer, which contains copper, zinc, silver, and gold.
RWAKED and Masharf consortium won an exploration license for the Hazm Shubatsite, in Aseer, which holds gold deposits, while Midad Almona and Tinka Resources consortium were granted exploration license for the Huwaymidan site, in Makkah, which contains gold as well.
The ministry noted that four companies received exploration licenses for the first time, and highlighted the Kingdom's attractiveness as a prime destination for investment in the mining sector.
Granting these licenses is part of the ongoing efforts to improve the investment climate in the Kingdom, providing opportunities for both local and international investors in this promising sector. The latest licenses reflect investor confidence in the Kingdom's regulatory framework and transparency in the mining sector, which aligns with the Vision 2030 goal of making mining the third pillar of the national economy, and strengthening local industries based on mineral resources.
A total of 44 bids were received from 22 local and international companies, 10 of which were bidding for the first time. The bids were evaluated taking into consideration technical expertise, work programs, and social and environmental commitments.
The six sites cover an area of 850 square kilometers.
The winning companies have committed to spending over SAR75 million on exploration activities and an additional around SAR5 million on community development in neighboring areas, contributing to job creation for local residents.
The Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources is inviting exploration and mining companies to take advantage of the next opportunity to obtain exploration licensing at seven sites on an area of more than 1,070 square kilometers. Bids may be submitted until the end of November. |
I understand constructive arguments and well balanced opinions but I can never understand why non holders waste their time arguing and posting unless agendas are in play, move on |

Indeed , Kefi has lots of red flags for any potential investor |
Humbly I was laughed at and mocked when stated 2025 wouldn't happen a few years ago.Problem here is that nothing ever changes. He constantly over promises under delivers. As said - keep money in pocket last week but wtfdikThe question now is what happens to the share price in the meantime? Saudi ramp perhaps.... Usually does the trick. See any pattern yet? Perfectly tradeable.... Until its not! |
"Production is still forecast for mid 2024."
What time era you living in ?
Targeted production start
We plan to start process plant commissioning programmes mid-2026, with 2027 being the first full production year. |
*17 BAGGER ALERT* ? Tulu Kapi's high grades and high recoveries offer the potential to repay all project finance debt from the estimated net cash flows of the first full year of production, at US$2,600/oz gold price. Moreover, at US$2,100/oz to 2,600/oz gold, Project NPV to KEFI shareholders is 6.9 to 10.5 pence per share, 12-17 times the current share price, ignoring our other assets." |
Is that Katsy'a 26 or your, goatie's 27?
SP ruling, they do not believe you. |
But that is still the time table Katsy.
Early works DID start mid 2024. Production is still forecast for mid 2024. So first full year 2027.
So why do you say there has been a year's slippage - you with your "super memory" and all? |
Said in 13th May and repeated 10th July RNS's
These activities are focused on the Tulu Kapi Gold Project launching in mid-2024 for production in mid-2026:
I wish you would read the RNS's. Oh I forget, you have a selective memory. |
heliman2,
Read the post again, I was not quoting TW. It was and still is my view.
Of course, the MMs' think likewise?
Tim's support of the £50m extra funding is his view.
I could comment on the eventual funding, but will not as to my mind, all rather wooly to say the least.
A never decreasing circle.
I'm careful not to quote Tim in the wrong context as if I do he gives me grief!
PS: Also agree with Tim, long AMRQ and short VCP.
0.56p looking solid eh? |
