Giyani Metals' Capital Fundraiser and Future Plans with CEO Danny Keating
Manage episode 430621225 series 2487333
In this episode, we chat to Danny Keating, President & CEO of Giyani Metals who are a battery metal development company focused on becoming one of Africa's first low-carbon producers of high-purity manganese sulphate mono-hydrate, a pre-cursor material used by lithium-ion battery manufacturers for the expanding (EV) market and they are currently developing a portfolio of high-quality manganese oxide assets within the Kanye Basin, in south-eastern Botswana, Africa.
Danny’s background is in both engineering and commercial & accounting working in executive management for over 15 years. He talks about their recent US$26 million fundraising, plans for the next 18 months as they are finalising their Demonstration Plant for producing high-purity battery grade manganese (HPMSM) ready for offtaker testing in Q4, and developing their Definitive Feasibility Study which is due in the first half of 2025.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Giyani Metals is focused on becoming one of Africa's first low-carbon producers of high-purity manganese sulfite monohydrate for the expanding EV market.
- Giyani Metals recently raised $26 million in capital from strategic investors ARCH and the IDC, showcasing a strong endorsement and support for the company's vision.
- The construction and commissioning of the demonstration plant is a key milestone for Giyani Metals, as it will demonstrate the process flow sheet and provide a continuous production of high-purity battery-grade manganese.
- The involvement of strategic investors like ARCH and the IDC not only provides financial support but also brings a focus on ESG aspects and long-term patient capital, setting a solid foundation for project financing.
- Giyani Metals is well-positioned in the high-purity manganese market, with a focus on meeting the increasing demand for manganese in battery chemistries, aligning with the industry's shift towards lower nickel, reduced cobalt, and increased manganese content.
BEST MOMENTS
"We spent almost a year going through due diligence with these groups, which is a ringing endorsement when we get to the end and they make a substantive investment."
"We're trying to assist in the energy transition. That's very important in terms of some of the sustainability aspects."
"We want to make sure that we're observing the highest social, environmental and governance aspects."
"We have the permits and licensing, the DFS and the demonstration plant all the way through to the offtake. So an exciting 12 months ahead of us in terms of delivering on all these aspects."
