QUARTERLY ROYALTY REVENUE UPDATE
Deterra Royalties Limited (ASX: DRR) ( Deterra or Company ) is pleased to confirm total royalty receipts for the June 2021 quarter of $54.9 million. Deterra had three producing royalties in the period, comprising:
-
Mining Area C (MAC), which generated iron ore revenue royalties of $52.8 million and a capacity payment of $2.0 million; and
-
Two Western Australian mineral sands operations which generated $0.1 million combined.
MAC iron ore revenue royalties increased by 45% compared to the March 2021 quarter as iron ore prices strengthened and sales volumes increased with the commissioning of the South Flank mine in May 2021.
Increased mine production in FY21, which included first ore from South Flank, has lifted the demonstrated annual capacity level at MAC from 57 million dry metric tonnes to 59 million dry metric tonnes, triggering a $2.0 million capacity payment.
The Company expects to report total revenue for the period from 15 June 2020 to 30 June 2021 of $145.2 million, comprising $140.4 million of royalty revenue and a $4.8 million demerger-related revenue adjustment.

1 Iron ore sales typically reflect average iron ore index prices for the month of shipping, with adjustments for ore quality. Deterra’s royalty receipts are based on sales invoiced during the period which may reflect, in part, provisional pricing. Accordingly, quarterly revenues can be impacted by the timing of adjustments to align achieved pricing to provisional pricing from the prior quarter.
