Shares in Wolf Minerals(WLFE) rose over 11% on Wednesday after it awarded a £75 million contract to Australia-based GR Engineering Services for the Hemerdon tungsten and tin project in the UK.
The fixed-price, fixed-term engineer procure construct (EPC) contract is for the design, construction and commissioning of a three million tonne-per-annum tungsten and tin mineral-processing plant, plus associated infrastructure, which will form "the key component" of the Hemerdon project.
The contract price is less than the £77 million estimated in a May 2011 definitive feasibility study. The contract forms the bulk of the development costs, estimated to be about £104 million, with land purchases, owners' costs and contingencies making up the balance.
Work on the two-year construction will commence upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent to financing.

The Australian firm behind £130 million plans to re-start mining operations on the outskirts of Plymouth made a loss of $2.5 million in last six months of 2012.
It comes after an announcement yesterday that Wolf Minerals had awarded a £75 million design and build contract for the scheme's processing plant to fellow Australian firm GR Engineering.
The mine, at Hemerdon, is anticipated to come into production by the end of 2014 and will produce 5,000 tonnes of tungsten concentrate and 500 tonnes of tin annually over the following decade.
Last month, a New Zealand-based business TTI (NZ) Ltd bought a 19.9% interest in the company as part of a $20.3 million share placement exercise to raise funds to provide working capital to progress the scheme – specifically by buying homes near the site of the mine.
