Namib Minerals posts operational update for How Mine, Zimbabwe

Namib Minerals [Nasdaq: NAMM] provided an operational update on its recent conclusion of an agreement with Bitumen World Mining (BW) for the treatment of sands at How Mine, Zimbabwe, Africa.

The company has entered into a new strategic partnership with BW Mining, a reputable mining and civil works contractor, for the retreatment of sands at How Mine in Zimbabwe. How Mine holds a surface sands resource of 213 Koz of gold in the Inferred Resource category, as set out in the company’s SK-1300 Report.

BW Mining has mobilized equipment on site and commenced preparatory work, to begin the initial phase of the testing of sands. Upon successful completion of testing, the company expects to capitalize on firm gold prices, leveraging the proven competencies and operational capacity of BW Mining to efficiently extract gold from the How Mine sands.

The project is intended to increase overall EBITDA and extract additional value from existing resources, positioning the company to deliver stronger returns to shareholders. However, such expectations are subject to the completion of the testing phase along with various assumptions, risks and uncertainties, including market conditions, many of which are beyond the company’s control.

This partnership serves as a complementary initiative to Namib Minerals’ ongoing capital projects, which remain focused on delivering higher-return opportunities and long-term value across the portfolio.
