Sovereign Metals Limited ( (AU:SVM) ) has shared an announcement.
Sovereign Metals has reported strong progress in its second year of mine rehabilitation trials at the Kasiya rutile-graphite project in Malawi, with empirical results now underpinning its Mine Closure and Rehabilitation Plans. The programme, overseen as part of the Definitive Feasibility Study with Rio Tinto, has demonstrated that post-mining land can be restored and deliver maize yields roughly five times the regional average.
The company has expanded trials into diversified intercropping with maize, bamboo, beans, fodder grass and groundnuts, supporting both soil remediation and a shift from subsistence to more commercial farming. Local farmers involved in the trials have asked Sovereign to help form a farming co-operative, strengthening community partnerships and supporting the project’s alignment with IFC Performance Standards, a key factor for future bankability and access to international development finance.
