General Background & Strategy
Kibo was established in early 2008 to explore and develop mineral deposits in Tanzania, East Africa
and was admitted to AIM on 27 April 2010 and AltX in South Africa on 30 May 2011. The Board of
Kibo is composed of professionals whose experience include mineral exploration, mine development,
mining finance, tax, law, mergers and acquisitions, and financial control of public companies. It is
supported by competent and motivated Tanzanian staffs that operate from Kibo's operations office in
Dar es Salaam.
The mineral assets of the Company now comprise five projects in Tanzania - Haneti (nickel, PGE and
gold), Morogoro (Gold), Lake Victoria (Gold), Rukwa (Coal) and Pinewood (Coal & Uranium) which
give Kibo access to 38,000 km2 of early stage exploration licences in Tanzania's premier gold mining
region, the Lake Victoria Goldfield, within the emerging gold exploration regions in eastern Tanzania
and uranium and coal regions in south-western Tanzania.
The Rukwa and Pinewood projects provide Kibo shareholders with exposure to an attractive portfolio
of strategic energy assets in Tanzania. Importantly, they are situated within and close to the Mtwara
Corridor, an area where the Tanzanian Government has committed to significant infrastructure
development and which has seen recent multi-million dollar investment in coal and coal-fired power
stations and uranium exploration.
The Rukwa project has a significant Mineral Resource of thermal coal already defined. This provides
nearer term development and commercialisation potential, complementing the other earlier stage
exploration projects held by Kibo. This is further supported by the memorandum of understanding
that has already been entered into with a major Asian conglomerate for the development of a coal
mine and mine-mouth coal-fired power plant based on the Rukwa project.
In addition, the Pinewood project encompasses a significant ground holding of prospective Karoo
sequence sedimentary rocks. These sediments are attracting considerable interest from international
companies exploring for uranium and coal mineralisation following some notable discoveries in
recent years.
Kibo's objective is to build shareholder value in a sustainable manner. This objective will be pursued
primarily through active exploration of its own projects and by using the Company's experience in
Tanzania to acquire attractive exploration and development assets on competitive terms that can be
moved swiftly up the value curve by using the Company’s own skills base whilst also seeking to
benefit from strategic collaborative relationships with industry leaders who have special skills and
competencies within their chosen fields of focus. Kibo will undertake continual risk assessment of its
projects and take whatever actions it believes are necessary to ensure that these risks are mitigated.
