KEFI Gold and Copper plc (LON:KEFI), the gold and copper exploration and development company focused on the Arabian-Nubian Shield, with a pipeline of projects in the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, is hosting its 2024 Annual General Meeting today at 9.00 a.m. BST in Ethiopia. At the AGM, Harry Anagnostaras-Adams, Executive Chairman of the Company, will make the following statement:
“I am delighted to be speaking at the AGM in Ethiopia today as we meet with our financing and government partners in the Tulu Kapi Gold Project to further progress the few remaining administrative matters, including the internal corporate re-organisation required to facilitate closing with regional investors. At the project site excellent progress is being made with the intense Early Works programme following the project’s launch in May 2024. The Early Works programme is designed to take Tulu Kapi through to September 2024, and provide the basis for full close of the US$320 million project finance package and commencement of Major Works in October 2024, ahead of commissioning of production in mid-2026.
Tulu Kapi will be Ethiopia’s first large-scale mining project for some 30 years and is designed to the highest international standards. Tulu Kapi is likely to become one of Ethiopia’s largest single export generators and a significant economic engine for local and regional benefits. All at KEFI are proud to be leading this project.
