Aspire Mining Ltd (ASX:AKM) managing director David Paull speaks to Proactive Investors about the company’s recent strategic financing and its development of the Ovoot Coking Coal Project in Mongolia.
“We’re well-funded now to complete the pre-feasibility study, and feasibility studies, that are required to confirm the early development project for Ovoot,” Paull says.
He continues, “the early development project … comprises both the mine site mine planning exercise for the carve-out of the low-ash, high-yielding section of the Ovoot project and also establishing a direct haul road.
“We’re looking at a combination of diesel genset as support for a solar power station … so that’s an interesting occurrence [where] you’ll have a coal mine operation using solar as its predominant power source, which is a sign of the times.”
