Kharmagtai Project Update

02.10.2024  |  GlobeNewswire

TORONTO, Oct. 02, 2024 - Xanadu Mines Ltd. (ASX: XAM, TSX: XAM) (Xanadu or the Company) is pleased to provide an update on its flagship Kharmagtai copper-gold project, in the South Gobi region of Mongolia. The Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) is nearing completion, operatorship transition to Zijin Mining Group Co (Zijin) is in progress, with planning and funding discussions underway for the next stage of development.

Highlights

  • The Kharmagtai PFS is in final stages of technical review and evaluation.
    • Xanadu has taken extra weeks to complete final mine design and independent reviews to the highest standard. Public announcement of results expected in mid-October 2024.
    • Xanadu remains accountable for PFS delivery to Australian and Canadian standards
    • PFS delivery will be achieved within the funding provided by Zijin's initial US$35m investment
  • Operator Transition underway as previously communicated, having commenced on 10 September per the Joint Venture (JV) Shareholders Agreement.
    • General Manager and Chair of Khuiten Metals JV Board now Zijin's nominees.
  • Planning underway for a Bankable Feasibility Study (FS).
  • Xanadu is in discussions with potential funding sources and other interested parties via its advisers Bacchus Capital and Jefferies.

Xanadu's Executive Chairman and Managing Director, Mr Colin Moorhead, said,

"The Kharmagtai PFS is coming together and will demonstrate its potential as a large-scale, high value copper-gold mine. We have taken additional time to ensure final work and technical reviews are at our expected standard, which is not unusual for major projects of this scale and complexity. We look forward to publishing the study outcomes in mid-October. Importantly, this outcome has been achieved within the funding provided by Zijin's initial US$35m investment.

Meanwhile the transition of operatorship from Xanadu to Zijin commenced on 10 September as per our JV Shareholders Agreement, and the teams are working together now to make sure we have a smooth transition structured in the best interests of the project. Xanadu continues to work with its advisers Bacchus Capital and Jefferies to assess funding options for its share of the next stage of development and other potential third-party interest.

In parallel with PFS finalisation, the new, Zijin nominated GM is focused on developing the Feasibility Study plan and budget, which will require Xanadu approval. Subject to approval and funding, in 2025 Kharmagtai will launch into the final stages of pre-construction approvals, permitting and ultimately, development."
