Solutions
----- End of picture text -----

Technology and Scale-up

Will Cadoux’s developed high-quality HPA process work efficiently, effectively and economically – especially at scale?

Cadoux has demonstrated the quality of the project through its extensive R&D and pilot plant studies. Project technology and engineering development has focused on production risk mitigation and includes the small-scale demonstration and production facility (SSP).

Commercialisation

Will Cadoux be able to develop and fund the capital required to get the HPA project into production?

Cadoux is very focused on the commercial development of the HPA project. Attention includes addressing the technical challenges of the process as well as determining the funding requirements of the project. Cadoux has been exploring a number of funding options to address the funding requirements.

3

Market

The HPA market is not well understood and is not transparent.

Cadoux has gained considerable insight and comfort in the HPA market since entering the industry. Direct customer outreach has been positive and engaging. Independent product research indicates ~30% CAGR* and a looming supply deficit. Cadoux has a well-developed understanding of customer specifications and offtake requirements via the development of HPA products.

==> picture [317 x 316] intentionally omitted <==

Minhub Rare Earth Strategy

Minhub will cooperate with third parties in the downstream development of heavy rare earth separation in the NT

Minhub is securing feedstock supply for the development of the Minhub Project

Minhub is collaborating with mineral sands developers with significant rare earth resources

The Minhub Project aims to be a key part of a sovereign supply chain solution for rare earths

Minhub will valueadd mineral sands concentrates and produce finished mineral sand products including monazite & xenotime

Alignment with Government Minerals Policy

The Minhub Darwin Sands Project (DSP) helps support the Federal Government supply chain for critical minerals

DSP aligns partners from mineral sands mining with rare earth projects and markets and brings transparent and sustainable sourcing of rare earth products from Australian mineral sands sources

Minhub is focused on Mineral Sands products monazite and xenotime for:

  • High grade concentrate with low impurities

  • Minhub developed process engineering for treatment of third party feedstocks

  • Low processing costs
