Australian Consulate, Namibia
Australian Investor Site Visit
Gavin Chamberlain also paid the Honorary Consul, Ed Humphrey, at the
Australian consulate a visit to keep him up to date on Etango. BMRN is
owned by Bannerman Energy, which is an Australian uranium development
company. Mr Humphrey (pictured right in the photograph) was pleased
to hear of the progress the company is making towards developing the
mine and Bannerman looks forward to hosting both Mr Humphrey and the
Australian High Commissioner at Etango in August.
Namibian Ministry of Mines and Energy
or the first time since the granting of the Etango mining licence,
Bannerman visited the Namibian Ministry of Mines and Energy. The aim
was to introduce the new Chairperson of Bannerman Mining Resources
Namibia (BMRN), Twapewa Kadhikwa, and the new CEO of Bannerman
Energy, Gavin Chamberlain, to the Minister.
During this courtesy visit, Bannerman assured the Ministry of its prepared-
ness to make the construction of the mine a reality and to keep the ministry
updated on all developments. Twapewa Kadhikwa adds: “We also stressed
that we aim to remain transparent at all times and provide regular updates.
We look forward to welcoming the Minister and his team to an Etango site
visit to see the progress we are making for himself.”
The Minister wished the Bannerman team success with the financing of the
project to construct the mine.

BMRN during an Australian Investors visit to the Etango Uranium Project
in May. The group left with a better sense of how large the project is and
the strides the company is making with the early works on site. For some
investors it was their first visit to Africa, and all the investors were impressed
with the hospitality of Namibians. The Bannerman team promised to show
them where the desert meets the ocean on their next visit to Namibia.
