Project Description
A scoping study completed on the Rukwa coal project has indicated an economically sound project with a relatively low capital expenditure (capex) cost and a 50-year life-of-mine. A small-scale mine and power plant (coal-to-power) scenario to provide electricity for local markets has been identified as having the best balance for shareholder return, deliverability and achievable capital requirements.
The Rukwa coal-to-power project hosts 171-million tons of measured and indicated coal, sufficient to support a 120 MW power station over the life of the project.
Net Present Value/Internal Rate of Return
Not stated.
Value
The capex to deliver a combined mine and power plant is estimated at between $35-million and $50-million.
