Triton Minerals Signs MOU with Suzhou for Ancuabe Services
Triton Minerals has signed a non-binding MOU for debt financing and consulting services related to its Ancuabe graphite project.
Triton Minerals (ASX:TON) has signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Suzhou Sinoma Design and Research Institute of Non-Metallic Minerals Industry, a subsidiary of China’s largest construction group.
Suzhou, a Chinese graphite-testing laboratory and consulting service, has “expressed interest” through the MOU in helping with the debt financing component of developing Triton’s Ancuabe graphite project.
Additionally, the company would provide technical consulting services for graphite-processing technology, production line equipment, construction, commissioning and graphite product control.
The two companies have also agreed to work alongside MCC International, which Triton signed an engineering, procurement and construction contract with in late September.
The collaboration will consist of finalizing project financing, leveraging Suzhou’s experience to optimize the project flowsheet and providing technical input during the project’s construction.
“Suzhou have shown strong interest in Ancuabe, and have requested involvement in many aspects of the project. The agreement of the MoU provides further validation of its status as a world class graphite project,” Triton Managing Director Peter Canterbury said in a statement.
He continued, “Suzhou has over 60 years’ experience in graphite processing and is one of the leading authorities on graphite globally. This partnership is expected to greatly benefit Triton in the construction and commissioning Ancuabe. Triton looks forward to finalising terms of debt with Suzhou, MCC and its banking group in the near term.”
Located 60 kilometers west of Pemba in Northern Mozambique, the Ancuabe project just received the development green light from Triton’s board in early June. The mine is estimated to see a production rate of 60,000 tonnes of graphite concentrate annually over a 27-year mine life.
As of the June release, construction of the project was docketed for sometime in the second half of 2018, with first production targeted for 2019’s second half.
Triton’s share price went up almost 7 percent to AU$0.046 on the ASX at the end of trading on Wednesday (November 7).
