Financing of mining projects

Probably the simplest form of financing is the share issue. Experts advocate financing that is kept simple and straightforward, especially when it comes to the early stages of a project. With streams and royalties, there is some uncertainty because the value of the project is usually not yet as well known. Institutional investors value indications of the largest possible deposits. The bank failures that recently occurred in the U.S. have led to restricted lending, industry observers say. Some are already talking about a dramatic decline in credit. If there was whining about the budget deficit in the 1980s, concerns are now reflected in the U.S. dollar. Which in turn is a good starting position for precious metals.

Asset managers are investing more and more in mining, it is noticeable. Anyway, it is not easy to make a financial plan. Costs for a mining project are high and it takes quite some time to get to production. Sometimes a mixture of streaming, royalties and debt helps mining companies. Prepaid metal supplies, senior debt, or equity investments must be carefully considered. Also, the rule that streaming yields higher returns does not always apply because the risk is greater.

An interesting company that provides mining companies with money is Queen’s Road Capital Investment – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/queens-road-capital-investment-ltd/ -. It focuses on mining companies in the gold, copper and uranium sectors. The earnings for Queen’s Road Capital Investment come from the securities. Shareholders, on the other hand, earn from convertible bonds. Companies that are no longer in the early stages, on the other hand, can use capital increases when capital is needed.

An international company that has already established itself in the production of gold as well as platinum and palladium, is Sibanye-Stillwater – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/sibanye-stillwater-ltd/ . The projects are located in the USA and in southern Africa.
