The Darwendale Project is an integrated development of the Darwendale platinum group metals deposit being implemented by Great Dyke Investments (Pvt) Ltd, a JV established between Russian and Zimbabwean partners (hereinafter the “Project” or “Darwendale”).
The Project is set to become one of the largest mining developments in recent times within the Great Dyke formation in Zimbabwe – itself one of the world’s largest platinum group ore bodies. The Project is currently in the pre-construction phase, and is engaging with engineering companies on construction of the mine and processing plant. At full capacity, Darwendale will process up to 10 mln tons of ore annually and produce up to 855,000 ounces (appr. 27 tons) of PGMs and gold (4E) per year. Darwendale is expected to become one of the lowest cost producers thanks to a shallow flat-dipping ore-body with a thickness of 2.5-2.75m. Over US$60 mln has been invested to date to complete extensive geological exploration and produce a Bankable feasibility Study (BFS) in 2017. Darwendale’s confirmed measured and indicated JORC resources total 17.6 million ounces (or 550 tons) of PGMs and gold and proven and probable reserves of 7.8 million ounces (or 240 tons) of PGM and gold. Extensive pre-development work has been completed on-site and includes: construction of over 6km of roads, core-storage facilities, a modern accommodation camp and administrative offices. At full capacity the Project will create up to 8,000 highly skilled jobs (including contractors). Darwendale has partnered with a number of experienced internationally recognized engineering companies consultants with the expertise and track record of successful development of similar high-profile projects, such as DRA, who prepared the BFS, Loesche, TOMS, MSA Group, and Metallicon. EY, SFA Oxford, and CRESCO Global provide analytical support to the project. Darwendale is a key strategic project for the Republic of Zimbabwe, which has conferred National Project status to the project and Special Mining Lease, and is central to the government and economic relations between Russia and Zimbabwe. |
