BRIMM107: Demystifying Structuring Concentrate Offtake, Marketing and Pricing

BRIMM107 will focus on tactics to increase information transparency in the concentrate trade, and how asymmetric information can result in complex deals that impact miners' profitability. We will talk about how off-take agreements are structured, making it challenging to price. We will end the day with solutions, both technical and relationship-based. We will quantify the value of fixing the problem and work out a couple of synthetic case studies.

Description

After completing this course, the participants will be able to:

Develop a goal post framework for the real options around off-take

Articulate the development trade-offs between better concentrate specs
