Growing Fast in Papua New Guinea With Matt Salthouse

In this episode, we chat with a returning guest who appeared in Feb 2021 (Episode 117) and Nov 2021 (Episode 192). Matt Salthouse is Chief Executive Officer at Kainantu Resources, which is an Asia-Pacific-focused gold mining company with some highly prospective gold projects in the high-grade Kanantu gold district of Papua New Guinea (PNG).  Matt gives us an update on the company speaking about the new Kili Teke deal. Along with updates on the May River project and shares his thoughts on the PNG government elections.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Kainantu Resources has executed a deal with Harmony Gold to acquire the Kili Teke project. Kili Teke is an existing inferred resource of South African standards. With around 6 million tonnes equivalent of gold. The amount of capital required to close the deal was relatively small, just a $500,000 payment to initiate it. Recent exploration of KRL North and South and May River have all yielded some good results. At May River they are waiting for around 300 results from an area with very promising geology. Papua New Guinea is a relatively stable place to mine. Successive governments have been supportive of the industry. BEST MOMENTS ‘A busy 6 months in terms of acquisition, working in the field and regional work. Consistent with the broader strategy. ´ ‘For Papua New Guinea mining is such a critical part of the economy.’   EPISODE RESOURCES Website: https://www.kainanturesources.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/kainantu-resources-limited/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/KainantuR Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kainanturesources/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KainantuResources/   Previous episodes with Matt Salthouse - https://omny.fm/shows/dig-deep-the-mining-podcast/mining-in-papua-new-guinea-with-matt-salthouse and https://omny.fm/shows/dig-deep-the-mining-podcast/mining-in-papua-new-guinea-progress-report-with-ma   VALUABLE RESOURCES Email: [email protected] Website: https://www.mining-international.org/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-tyson/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/MiningRobTyson Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DigDeepTheMiningPodcast/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theminingpodcast/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DigDeepTheMiningPodcast/videos   ABOUT THE HOST Rob Tyson is an established recruiter in the mining and quarrying sector and decided to produce the “Dig Deep” The Mining Podcast to provide valuable and informative content around the mining industry.
