KEFI Minerals (LON:KEFI), the gold exploration and development company with projects in the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, has today announced its financial results for the year ended 31 December 2017.
Harry Adams, Chairman of KEFI Minerals commented:
“2017 was a challenging year, but we now stand with assets, relationships and people that provide a great platform to deliver shareholder value by developing profitable mines in Ethiopia and Saudi Arabia. KEFI Minerals is at the forefront of the minerals sector in one of the world’s great under-developed minerals provinces – the Arabian-Nubian Shield.
“Our primary focus remains on our flagship Tulu Kapi Gold Project for which we have now assembled the proposed full project funding consortium including contractors, equity and non-equity capital. For Tulu Kapi to proceed, all stakeholders now rely on closing out the remaining Government processes and approvals, along with completion of due diligence and formal documentation. It is planned that the financing of the Tulu Kapi Gold Project will be entirely at the project level, with KEFI retaining a beneficial ownership interest in the order of 54% and the balance being held by the Ethiopian Government and other Ethiopian investors.
