Deccan Gold Mines Ltd

- Deccan Gold Mines Limited is planning an initial fundraising of Rs. 72 crores (~$9 million) primarily through equity (preferential allotment) to acquire stakes in key projects like Jonnagiri (up to 49%), Altyn Tor (10%), and Tanzania project (initial 18-26%). - Following this, an additional Rs. 250-300 crores is targeted for further project development, potentially split 50:50 between equity and debt, depending on progress with the initial round. - Smaller amounts like Rs. 5 crores for nickel-chromium-PGE exploration and Rs. 10 crores for the Finland and Kyrgyzstan projects are included in early funding phases. - Discussions are ongoing with strategic investors in India, Singapore, and Dubai to raise these funds. - Debt funding is arranged for infrastructure (Rs. 150-170 crores for Geomysore) mainly through partners like Triveni, which will service the debt. - Further rounds of funding may be needed as projects like Tanzania mature and require more capital.

- Rs. 72 crores ($9 million) planned as the first stage of funding primarily for: - Increasing stake in Geomysore from 42% to 49% - Investing about Rs. 10 crores in the Altyn Tor gold project expansion - Acquiring 18% stake (first tranche) in Tanzania project via cash infusion and share swap - Prospecting work in nickel, chromium, and associated minerals in Chhattisgarh composite license - Prospecting and working capital for Finland and Kyrgyzstan projects - Additional Rs. 250-300 crores expected later (about 50:50 equity and debt) for further development, especially Tanzania project after plant construction matures - Rs. 3-4 crores potential seed government funding for critical minerals exploration (platinum-palladium-nickel) - Land acquisition ongoing: 80 acres completed (pit area), 50 acres targeted this month (processing plant), about 200 acres planned (tailings dump) - Equipment orders placed including long lead items like ball mill (8-9 months delivery) for Jonnagiri project

- Deccan Gold Mines aims to produce 1 tonne of gold per year by 2026, primarily from Jonnagiri (49% stake), Tanzania, and Kyrgyzstan projects. - Beyond 2026, production is expected to potentially double to 2 tonnes by 2027-28. - By 2030, the company targets production of 5 tonnes per year of gold or gold equivalent, including projects in Finland and Ganajur. - EBITDA margins on gold projects like Jonnagiri are estimated at around 60%, with operational costs around 35-40%. - Initial revenue is expected to start post-2024 as projects like Jonnagiri reach production. - Consultancy vertical revenues are expected to begin from Q2 2023, supporting operational sustainability. - Significant fundraises (Rs. 72 crores initially, followed by Rs. 250-300 crores) will support ramp-up and new project acquisitions. - Non-gold projects (nickel, PGE) have similar profitability but longer timelines (2-4 years before revenue).

- By 2026, Deccan Gold Mines Limited (DGML) targets producing 1 tonne of gold annually, mainly from Jonnagiri (49% stake), Tanzania, and Kyrgyzstan projects. - EBITDA margins on gold projects like Jonnagiri are projected around 60%, with operating costs about 35-40%. For example, production costing ~Rs. 500-550 crores could yield Rs. 300 crore EBITDA per tonne annually. - Beyond 2026, production can potentially double by 2027-28, reaching about 2 tonnes/year. - By 2030, DGML aims for 5 tonnes annual gold (or equivalent in other metals), expanding to a junior to mid-tier producer. - Non-gold projects (nickel, PGE, etc.) expected to have profitability comparable to gold projects due to multiple metal credits, but revenue for these may start beyond 2-4 years following exploration. - Consultancy vertical starting Q2 2023 will generate continuous revenue supporting operations. - Future earnings growth depends on successful funding rounds and project ramp-ups.
