Wia fully funded to advance Namibia project following DFS completion, MRE increase

Wia Gold (ASX-listed) says it has firm commitments for an A$125 million placement to fund the Kokoseb gold project in Namibia after completion of its definitive feasibility study. The DFS reported maiden probable ore reserves of 69.8 Mt at 0.87 g/t (1.95 Moz) and forecast 150,000 oz/y for 10 years. Funding is conditional on shareholder approval; first gold is targeted for Q4 2028.

Wia Gold lines up $360m deal for Kokoseb project

WIA Gold said it signed indicative terms with Sprott Resource Lending to arrange $360m in construction debt for its Kokoseb gold project in Namibia, plus Sprott’s planned $15m purchase of WIA scrip in a future equity raise, subject to due diligence. WIA reported a definitive feasibility study forecasting 150,000 oz/y, 1.84m oz over 14 years, with $475m total capex and a 29% higher resource to 3.78m oz, using a $3,600/oz gold price.
