RE:Energizer's infrastructure situation doesn't look as bad as
Posting error: Sorry
Panalpina Group, one of the world’s leading intercontinental air and ocean freight supply chain and logistics companies, confirmed that the current in-place infrastructure for transportation water and power at Molo will allow for immediate production. The project will utilize a serviceable road from site to port, 160km away, as well as existing water sources proximal to the Project. The nearby Sakoa Coal Field (35km away) will upgrade the now serviceable infrastructure to world-class status. Targeted to produce 5 million tonnes of coal on an annualized basis, the Sakoa Coal Field will require significant upgrades to road infrastructure, port infrastructure, and on-sight power plants that Energizer expects to tap into. It is the Company’s understanding that the Sakoa Coal Field is targeting operation between 2015 and 2016.

Molo is close to Fotadrevo which is SE of Soamanonga which is about 55 Km. W of Ambahita on the winding dashed Secondary road that connects to a Primary road which moves about 15 Km. SW
to the dotted Secondary road that heads 60 Km. W to the coast and then N about 40 Km. from Beheloka to where the Port facility at Soalara is planned. If the Port of Soalara is not build Energizer can still send its planned 82,000 tonne annually by road another 30 Km. N to the Port of Tulear .
It may also be possible to use the same Primary Road going NW to Andranovory and then SW to the secondary road to the Proposed Port which would be a greater distance.
