The Company intends to further optimize this timeline as the project moves forward. The refurbished plant comprises a crushing plant two ball mills carbon-in-pulp (CIP) section gold room and a laboratory. The Company’s consultants SENET Engineering estimate the total cost of purchasing and delivering the plant to Twangiza to be less than US$15 million which represents significant savings in time and cost to Banro. SENET Engineering has been selected as the overall project manager and will also manage the erection and commissioning of the plant. The Company intends to operate the plant as part of a low-cost “phase one” oxide mining operation to be expanded in subsequent years. It is estimated that annual production from this first phase plant will be between 80000 and 110000 ounces of gold per annum at a total operating cash cost of less than US$400 per ounce. The Company estimates the capital cost for phase one of the project (which phase is planned to use diesel power rather than hydroelectric power) to be approximately US$145 million including contingencies.

The new energy centre will produce power for the University of Liverpool at a more economical rate than buying it commercially and will supply heat to most of the University’s buildings. The installation of a gas powered CHP unit and associated combination boiler will provide electricity and high-temperature heat. In addition the project will centralize the heating infrastructure of the entire university campus and will decommission the existing plant and demolish the boiler house. The new energy centre will enable the University to meet its energy and environmental objectives reducing its annual energy consumption by over 13000 MWh and carbon dioxide emissions by over 1500 tonnes says EMCR. Additionally the partnership between principal contractor EMCR and the University of Liverpool has seen the construction project become an on-campus educational resource for the students providing a new vocational dimension to their education. EMCR’s solution reaches beyond the construction site and gives the University of Liverpool’s civil engineering students the opportunity to experience a live construction environment and engage with EMCR’s project team to learn about various aspects of construction. Students and staff can also view progress on a specially installed webcam.
