Issuing and listing debt to fund Stage 1 mine
Volt continues to progress approval to issue and list interest-bearing notes on the Stock Exchange of Mauritius (SEM)’s Development and Enterprise Market (DEM) in addition to the issue and listing of interest-bearing notes on the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange (DSE) in Tanzania.
The notes will be used to raise the funds required to construct the Stage 1 mine, plant and infrastructure and bring the Bunyu Project into production.
Bunyu’s development is based on a two-stage plan which aims to see Volt become one of the three largest natural flake graphite producers in the world.
The Stage 1 feasibility study was based on a 400,000 tonnes per annum mining and processing operation to produce on average 23,700 tonnes of graphite products annually.
