Pilbara Cu-Zn

Enhancement Program

Size counts in the Pilbara

Focus on several objectives

  • Increased scale - development of production plans for the Salt Creek, Evelyn and Kangaroo Caves resources to determine their potential economic contribution.

  • Value Optimisation - optimisation of the development sequence of the multiple ore sources to maximise the Project’s value.

  • CAPEX Refinement - investigating other CAPEX options for the existing Project design (modular construction with offshore prefabrication, CNG power generation).

  • Permitting – proceeding with development approvals.

  • Financing - discussions will continue.
