Financing Solutions

Capital for progress.

Financing routes matched to project stage, cash flow and risk.

Strategic finance for African mining and energy
Finance with discipline

Better-prepared projects create clearer financing conversations.

Projects often stall because the proposed capital structure does not fit the asset stage, risk profile, repayment capacity or operating cycle.

Minirus helps sponsors organise licences, technical reports, cost estimates, market evidence, contracts, implementation plans, risks, financial statements and models before a financing request is presented. Financing is never guaranteed and remains subject to due diligence, approvals and documentation.

  • Defined funding need and use of proceeds
  • Forecast assumptions consistent with technical and market capacity
  • Capital structure that leaves the project able to operate
  • Transparent treatment of regulatory, HSE, community and security risks
Potential financing routes

Fit-for-purpose options for credible opportunities.

Equity

For early-stage development, expansion and projects with longer payback periods, subject to valuation, governance, dilution and exit terms.

Debt

For operations with predictable cash flow and repayment capacity, considering tenor, security, covenants and debt-service coverage.

Equipment Finance

For mining machinery, vehicles, field equipment and processing assets, aligned with utilisation, maintenance and insurance.

Trade Finance

For commodity purchases, inventory, receivables and contracted deliveries, supported by counterparty and transaction controls.

Project Finance

For ring-fenced infrastructure or production projects with bankable contracts, defined risk allocation and resilient cash flow.

Joint-Venture Capital

For projects where parties contribute different assets or capabilities under agreed control, obligations and distribution policies.

Investment readiness

What a serious capital request should demonstrate.

Rights

Verified ownership, licences, permits, approvals and authority to transact.

Evidence

Technical reports, test results, production history and realistic implementation plans.

Market

Customers, pricing basis, contracts, competition and a defensible route to revenue.

Economics

Costs, assumptions, funding need, use of proceeds, downside cases and return path.
