PRODUCTION VOLUME OF 40,000 TONS AT KVALNES WITH TOTAL POTENTIAL OF 90,000 TONS

Kvalnes build-out plan

  • Comments
  • Targeting first harvest of up to 700 tons (HOG) in June/July 2023
  • Gradual ramp-up to full capacity of 40,000 tons at Kvalnes, focusing on capital efficiency
  • Next step at Kvalnes encompasses 4 new pools, bringing total production capacity to 8,000 tons, followed by further expansion
  • Larger interventions and blasting to be taken in this step, meaning that the only required pause in production due to ground works will be in 2024
  • Current production license of 19,000 tons (10,000 tons MAB) at Kvalnes, with further license applications to be submitted in accordance with original business plan
