Locking in Favorable Mining Project Economics - An Integrated Approach to Mining Investment
26 March 2007

led by:

The global mining industry has been reaping the rewards of a 'perfect storm' of coincident positive factors:

  • High commodity prices
  • Strong equity demand
  • Strong physical demand
  • Healthy appetite for emerging market and resource related debt

The challenge for mining project developers and operators is finding ways to lock in these favorable project economics, in order to deliver growth for shareholders in the medium and longer term.This summit will discuss several case studies on how this can be done, and the benefits of using an integrated approach to negotiating equity, offtake, debt and risk management arrangements.

The Summit will be hosted by representatives from Standard Bank's Mining & Metals team out of Singapore, Sydney, Shanghai and Hong Kong. The Summit will focus on live case studies in which these representatives have been involved, including:

  • Leveraging offtake to attract equity and mezzanine debt investment from sources including China, Japan, Korea andIndia
  • Integrated approach to arranging equity and debt investment
  • Locking in commodity prices above equity analyst expectations

This will be an interactive and consultative style meeting to discuss the best approaches to mining project investment during the current market environment, combining the multiple perspectives of miners, investors, offtakers and lenders to assist miners in delivering the best value to their shareholders.
