Tigers Realm Coal Limited announced that, in order to achieve its next strategic objective on the Amaam North deposit, TIG is focused on the construction and financing of a coal handling and processing plant (CHPP) to enable the Company to sell a higher-value product of consistent quality into the Semi-Hard coking coal (SHCC) markets. This SHCC product, based on assumed market prices of USD 130/t will allow TIG to achieve significantly higher average prices than those currently being achieved for the basket of unwashed coal products. The design and engineering works for the CHPP have been done with help from SibNii, one of the leading Russian coal process design bureaus, together with AB Mylec, a leading Australian coal process expert who have conducted washability optimization studies, as well as IMC Montan, a mining consultant, and CETCO /Coralina, an engineering firm. To optimise capital spend and suitable financing, TIG is evaluating the option of a modular plant design for which it is expected that design and engineering works will be completed early in 2020. The first module of 150tph (equivalent to an annualised production rate of circa 600ktpa of saleable coal assuming a yield of 65%) is targeted for delivery and commissioning to allow the SHCC product to be sold during the 2021 shipping season.
