Two producing assets across two jurisdictions and two commodities give us a repeatable template: acquire, define the resource to a standard that survives audit, build the plant, and operate it end to end. We are actively assessing further opportunities across sub-Saharan Africa, and the same template is what carries the Group’s expansion into the United States.
If you hold an asset that fits, we would rather hear about it early. We assess quickly, and we say no quickly too.
