Kefi announces launch of Tulu Kapi project
Published: 20 May 24
Aim-listed gold and copper exploration and development company Kefi has announced that the Tulu Kapi Gold Mines (TKGM) board has formally launched the project. "Our launch timing is fortuitously coinciding with the improved conditions in Ethiopia and all-time high gold prices. Tulu Kapi's high grade and high process recovery, combined with our project design, has resulted in a robust set of economics for long-term operations which should support further exploration and development along with good opportunities to continue supporting local social development projects such as the already provided local school and water supply. The returns for the capital investors and lenders are attractive and the recent exemptions from exchange controls has rendered the Ethiopian mining investment climate internationally competitive,” Kefi executive chairperson Harry Anagnostaras-Adams said on May 20.

Copper's record run at risk as US shipments calm speculator frenzy
Published: 20 May 24
Copper's lightning rally to record highs may not be sustainable in the coming weeks, with action concentrated on the shipment of material to cover exposed short positions in the US Comex futures market rather than tepid demand in top consumer China.
Prices on the CME Group's Comex hit a record last week, while benchmark copper on the London Metal Exchange (LME) rocketed on Monday to an all-time peak of $11 104.50 a metric ton, having surged 28% so far this year.
