2294: Harena's shares soar, as PFS showcases US$1bn cashflow potential

Harena Rare Earths has released details of a pre-feasibility study for its Ampasindava rare earths project in Madagascar. The study shows on a base case scenario that the project could generate around US$1bn in cash flow over a 20 year mine life. Capex is set at US$142 million, although further refinements as the DFS gets underway could reduce that. The upside scenario shows potential for US$2.6bn in cash flow, so there really is a lot to play for. Not surprising that the shares soared 25% on the news. Harena's executive chairman Ivan Murphy joins us to tell us what it all means, and what happens next.
