Message from our Chairman & CEO

[et_pb_section bb_built=”1″][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.106″ background_layout=”light”]

The last 5 years have seen some pretty horrible exits in the mining and minerals space with scarce capital and low activity; however, I am pleased to say that in the last 6 months we have seen a remarkable upturn in activity which has positively affected our business. UMG is now a global business with valued clients in North & South America, Africa, Australia and Canada. We could not have achieved our recent successes in Nickel, Gold and Titanium without the support of our investors and project owners.

We shifted our business model from purely an engineering feasibility firm to a hybrid business model that leverages intellectual networking, social media and high-level contacts to deliver a valuable service to our clients. We successfully introduced our project owners to our valued investors. From humble beginnings, we now have a strong network of over 240 investors of all shapes and sizes – one size or shape does not fit all. For those that operate in our space, the road to capital is filled with obstacles, doubters and timewasters. We know that it’s not for everyone. Some notable successes inevitably mean growth not only for our business also our peers’.

UMG has exciting gold, diamond, nickel, cobalt, copper and zinc projects under development that are currently being scrutinised and painstakingly dissected by myself and my team. In the coming weeks, our COO & Director Peter Harrison will be providing his own update on upcoming projects that may be of interest. Our business would not be a success without our strong relationships with project owners and investors. In the coming months, I will be visiting our network of Australasian investors with visits to Sydney, Melbourne and Perth.

UMG recently appointed a new Associate Director for Mining & Minerals Markets to deal with the increased traffic from our projects funnel. We now have 6 Associates Directors with disciplines in Geology, Metallurgy, Mining, Business Development & Marketing, Process Design and Market Development. We have a strong and powerful marketing platform that consistently delivers quality, high grade, low opex cost projects with strong management teams.

We are seeing a shift in battery metals notably with the 5th generation battery system from BMW that will start production in 2020, not that far away. We understand it will be a mass production battery for the masses that will consist of nickel, manganese & cobalt -all commodities in short supply.  Currently, we seek Farm-In Agreements for good projects which may have under-managed and under-explored projects. We are also constantly seeking resource projects that have high grade, low impurities, and good management teams that are in development/operation. These are our priorities as we continue to network our international client base.

For those that have recently joined our network, welcome. As we all know in the mining world, it’s not what you know, it’s definitely who you know that counts. If you’ve managed to survive the last 5 years, I say with confidence that we will have a great opportunity to maximize our wealth in the coming years.

UMG Company Sucess Stories

The last 6 months have been extremely busy for Universal Mining Group, and our UMG Funding and Universal Mining Consultants businesses.

UMG Funding has successfully facilitated funding for:

  • a Nickel project in South America
  • a Zinc polymetallic project in South Africa,

We are managing our pipeline of projects having made some great contacts with current and future project owners in recent times. Funding mandates for exciting opportunities have recently been negotiated including:

  • a multi-million Oz Gold play in Canada, 2m Oz proven and 3m Oz inferred
  • a Gold project in Argentina, 1m Oz plus
  • a Farm-In Agreement for a Diamond project in South Africa, including high-grade gem quality stones
  • a Cobalt & Lithium multi tenement deposit of extremely high grade,( capital raising closing this September).

 

  • In the pipeline is another Sulphide Nickel project, with Cobalt and bonus Gold deposit on the same tenement, in Laos this time.
  • a legally binding offtake agreement is being concluded with an internationally recognized global Zinc smelter/supplier for our South African Zinc Project, securing 65% of the revenue for the project and proceeding with the DFS to support those offtake arrangements

Thanks to our developing reputation and increasing outreach to our highly valued new and existing investors and clients, the project pipeline on our books continues to grow. Working closely with interested parties allows us to create value for all under NDA/HoA or Farm In arrangements.

We continue to use social media and email to alert investors to new opportunities.

Investors Required for Zinc & Nickel Projects

UMG Funding has been recently mandated to find investors for 2 zinc projects and 1 nickel project, one of the zinc projects is in the exploration phase, has historical feasibility and near-term production. The other Zinc project has a Pre-Feasibility Study completed and the resource has been defined to 43 101 code. The Sulphide Nickel project has a BFS completed, the Resource and Reserves are defined and support a 10-year mine life.

For more information and a confidential discussion please contact Peter Harrison via peter.harrison@umgrp.com.

In addition, we have just been mandated to find Uranium Projects that are in exploration phase or in Pre-Feasibility Study stage development project owners to discuss potential funding.

Agreement Between Universal Mining Group and CPC Engineering Group

A ground-breaking exclusive collaboration agreement has been signed between Universal Mining Group and CPC Engineering Group. This follows UMG’s due diligence assessment of CPC Engineering’s capabilities, aligned to strategic projects of international interest.

The resources of both groups can now be combined to harness their networks and mining engineering expertise in graphite, gold, nickel, copper, manganese and zinc projects. They provide a robust alternative to tier 1 consultants in cost, capex, opex and engineering fee terms.

Combining the core strengths of both organisations musters a multidisciplinary team of mining and engineering professionals to provide a complete service from Resource Definition and Pit Design to Processing and Metallurgy through to non-process infrastructure.  This agreement enables Universal Mining Group to provide a unique turnkey service for its clients with appropriate process guarantees.
