YFD’s growth and sustainability strategy is anchored in the Company’s long-term vision to responsibly unlock the full potential of its mineral resources. Building upon its original development plan, YFD is committed to mining and processing all proven Ore Reserves from its initial mineral sands project in Sierra Leone.

As part of this strategic roadmap, the Company is now self-funding the relocation and expansion of its mining and ore processing operations to its wholly owned subsidiary, FOISON Resources Sierra Leone Limited, also based in Sierra Leone. This transition reflects YFD’s dedication to operational efficiency, local value creation, and sustainable project development.

Production Outlook
By mid-2025, YFD anticipates achieving a monthly output of 15,000 tonnes of processed mineral sands. Within the next five years, the Company aims to expand its operations to reach a total annual capacity of 300,000 tonnes, driven by phased project development and infrastructure upgrades.

YFD is committed to minimising any potential long-term adverse impacts of its operations on the environment. The Company strives to maintain compliance with all of its licence requirements while it actively seeks to identify ways to ensure lasting improvements to certain aspects of the environment such as soil water retention, by using terracing and blending clayey materials into rehabilitated topsoils.
