KEFI Minerals (AIM: KEFI), the gold and copper exploration and
development company with projects in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
and the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, has uploaded to
its website two video presentations entitled "KEFI Minerals
Ethiopia" and "KEFI Minerals Saudi Arabia", being delivered this
week by its representatives to forums focusing on growth
opportunities for the minerals sector within the Arabian-Nubian
Shield ("ANS"). KEFI's presentations focus on the two largest ANS
countries, Ethiopia and Saudi Arabia, being where its activities
are based. The forums are being held in Canada and Turkey.
Speaking in Ankara, KEFI Executive Chairman, Harry
Anagnostaras-Adams, commented: "KEFI is pleased to have built a
strong platform with pole positions in the two largest countries
within the highly prospective Arabian-Nubian Shield, Ethiopia and
Saudi Arabia. Despite recent political unrest in Ethiopia, it
remains one of the most stable and predictable governments in the
African continent. Across the Red Sea, the wide-ranging reforms
being witnessed in Saudi Arabia include a progressive push to
develop the minerals sector."

NOTES TO EDITOR
KEFI Minerals plc
KEFI is the operator of two advanced gold development projects
within the highly prospective Arabian-Nubian Shield, with an
attributable 1.93Moz (100% of Tulu Kapi's 1.72Moz and 40% of Jibal
Qutman's 0.73Moz) gold Mineral Resources (JORC 2012) plus
significant resource growth potential. KEFI targets that production
at these projects generates cash flows for further exploration and
expansion as warranted, recoupment of development costs and, when
appropriate, dividends to shareholders.
KEFI Minerals in Ethiopia
The Tulu Kapi gold project in western Ethiopia is being
progressed towards development, following a grant of a Mining
Licence in April 2015.
The Company has now refined contractual terms for project
construction and operation. Estimates include open pit gold
production of c. 140,000oz pa for a 7-year period. All-in
Sustaining Costs (including operating, sustaining capital and
closure but not including leasing and other financing charges)
remain c. US$800/oz. Tulu Kapi's Ore Reserve estimate totals 15.4Mt
at 2.1g/t gold, containing 1.1Moz.
All aspects of the Tulu Kapi (open pit) gold project have been
reported in compliance with the JORC Code (2012) and subjected to
reviews by appropriate independent experts.
A Preliminary Economic Assessment has been published that
indicates the economic attractiveness of mining the underground
deposit adjacent to the Tulu Kapi open pit, after the start-up of
the open pit and after positive cash flows have begun to repay
project debts. An area of 1,100 square kilometres adjacent to Tulu
Kapi has been reserved for exploration by KEFI upon commencement of
development, with a view to adding satellite deposits to
development and production plans.
KEFI Minerals in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
In 2009, KEFI formed G&M in Saudi Arabia with local Saudi
partner, Abdul Rahman Saad Al Rashid & Sons Company Limited
("ARTAR"), to explore for gold and associated metals in the
Arabian-Nubian Shield. KEFI has a 40% interest in G&M and is
the operating partner.
To date, G&M has conducted preliminary regional
reconnaissance and has had five exploration licences ("ELs")
granted, including Jibal Qutman and the Hawiah EL that contains
over 6km strike length of outcropping gossans developed on altered
and mineralised rocks with all the hallmarks of a copper-gold-zinc
VHMS deposit.
At Jibal Qutman, Mineral Resources are estimated to total 28.4Mt
at 0.80g/t gold for 733,045 contained ounces. The shallow oxide
portion of this resource is being evaluated as a low capital
expenditure heap-leach mine development.
ARTAR, on behalf of G&M, holds over 20 EL applications. ELs
are renewable for up to three years and bestow the exclusive right
to explore and to obtain a 30-year exploitation (mining) lease
within the area.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has announced policies to encourage
minerals exploration and development, and KEFI Minerals supports
this priority by serving as the technical partner within G&M.
ARTAR also serves this government policy as the major partner in
G&M, which is one of the early movers in the modern resurgence
of the Kingdom's minerals sector.
