Rosie Scoping Study
Results of the Scoping Study on the Rosie Nickel Sulphide Project were announced during the quarter (see ASX announcement 28[th] April 2021). Highlights of the study are:
-
A Scoping Study for Duketon’s 100% owned Rosie Nickel Project confirms the viability of a mining, trucking and toll treating operation assuming an 8-year mine life.
-
NPV5 of ~ $161M (range $56M to $204M)
-
IRR of ~ 54% (range 21% to 66%)
-
Pre-tax cashflow of ~ $223M (range $91M to $278M)
-
Pre-production capital cost of ~ $18M
-
Standard decline access for underground mine – minimal surface infrastructure
-
Annual production of approximately 315kt of ore at 2.1% NiEq
-
Resource already situated on a granted mining tenement with ample room for all surface works and infrastructure.

-
Metallurgy work shows a positive outcome with high recoveries of nickel, copper and PGE’s (see ASX announcement 8 and 10 July,2020)
-
The exploration strategy is being finalised and will consider three different items: lateral extensions to Rosie, identification of higher-grade areas within the proposed mined areas and additional exploration outside of the Rosie project area.
-
Upside opportunities include:
-
considering oxide portion of Rosie for recovery of PGE’s,
-
including C2 Nickel resource as part of an expanded operation that would incorporate an onsite concentrator and be focused on producing concentrates to be sold to a third party or parties.
The Scoping Study has demonstrated potentially strong financial metrics for the Rosie Project based on a pre-production capital cost of approximately $18M. The Study describes a decline accessing the resource that is subsequently mined underground via overhand longhole stoping using cemented rockfill. The mined rock is then trucked to surface, and then transported on public roads to a third-party concentrator. The Company considers the Project to be technically low risk given the simple mine plan drawing from a largely indicated resource and the high metallurgical recoveries. (see ASX announcements 8 and 10 July 2020). The Scoping Study was completed to an overall +/-30% accuracy using the key parameters and assumptions set out in Table 1 and 2 and as further outlined in the Material Assumptions in the original ASX announcement.

Rosie Diamond Drill Program
The diamond drill program at Rosie is progressing well with eight (8) drillholes completed for 1300 metres, including three holes into the oxide material for PGE metallurgical testwork. Mineralisation has been intersected in all drillholes with the first batch of assays expected in the next few weeks.
The program at Rosie Nickel Project is designed to increase confidence in mineralisation in the upper north area, test at depth below the south-eastern area (previously known as Nariz) and collect PGE rich oxide material from directly above the sulphide deposit for assay and PGE recovery/metallurgical testwork (Figure 3). These three areas have been identified from the Rosie Nickel Sulphide Scoping Study as having potential upside by either impacting early cash flow or extending the life of mine (see ASX announcement 28th April 2021).

The Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate for Rosie is 2.56 million tonnes at 3.14% nickel equivalent (NiEq) (reported in accordance with the 2012 JORC Code). The resource estimate is reported at >1% NiEq. Over 66% of the Resource has been classified as Indicated and the mineralisation is open in all directions. This MRE was completed using January 2021 Spot Prices.

- (1) Assumptions for the nickel equivalent are: Prices (in USD) $8.00/lb Ni, $3.65/lb Cu, $15.30/lb Co, $1,100/oz Pt, $2,300/oz Pd and $15,500/oz Rh. Recovery assumptions from metallurgical test work are: Pentlandite domain 96.9% Ni, 99.5% Cu, 95.1% Co, 78.2% Pt, 97.6% Pd and 83.4% Rh. Violarite domain 88.7% Ni, 94.5% Cu, 88.5% Co, 57.6% Pt, 87.3% Pd and 64.8% Rh.
This resource includes the Nariz mineralisation, discovered by DKM in 2014. The Mineral Resource contained metal is 49,100 tonnes of nickel, 10,600 tonnes of copper, 1,400 tonnes of cobalt and over 205,000 oz of total PGEs (Table 5).
The resource includes a reportable nickel equivalent number after metallurgical work was completed to determine recoveries (see ASX announcement 8[th] July 2020 & 10[th] July 2020). It is the opinion of DKM that all the elements included in the metal equivalents calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold.
The total JORC compliant nickel resource for the Bulge Area (Rosie & C2) stands at 87,100 tonnes of nickel, 12,900 tonnes of copper and 231,000 ounces of PGE’s (Tables 6-8).

Regional Exploration
Regional exploration has been ongoing throughout the quarter. Multiple new targets have been generated creating a significant and robust pipeline of organic opportunities.
Granted tenements:
-
Stephens – base metals VMS project in the Gullewa-Koolanooka Greenstone Belt with a number of significant intercepts
-
Doris – uranium tenement within the Narryer Terrane, 125km north of Meekatharra
Tenement applications:
-
Eagle – gold project in the Tanami Region, two small non JORC gold resource and numerous other significant intercepts
-
Lake Barlee – gold project surrounding Halleys East Gold Mine, 200km north of Southern Cross
-
Fisher South – gold and nickel project at the southern end of the Fisher Greenstone Belt
-
Mulga Tank North – gold project within the Minigwal Greenstone Belt with several gold in regolith anomalies
-
Cunyu – project covering the entire Merrie Greenstone Belt, early stage exploration
-
North Walgoolan - prospective for gold and VMS style base metal mineralisation within the north western extension of the Westonia Greenstone Belt, 45km NE of Merredin
-
Ninghan –prospective gold and base metals ground within the Paynes Find Greenstone Belt, 17km west of Paynes Find
Ongoing Strategy
Duketon remains well positioned to drive value from four approaches:
-
Expand/Study Nickel Resources - Complete mining study and target extensions to Rosie C2 and the greater area for Ni-Cu-PGE’s
-
New Projects – Acquire advanced Gold or Nickel projects with inherent upside that can be unlocked through technical and/or commercial means
-
New Tenure – Acquire new tenure via opportunistic applications or by simple/low cost commercial means.
