EQR & GOLDING EXECUTE MINING CONTRACT FOR MT CARBINE

EQ Resources Limited is the 100% owner of the Mt Carbine Tungsten Mine near Cairns.

EQ Resources Limited (“EQR” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce it has executed a Mining Services Agreement (the “Contract”) with Golding Contractors Pty Ltd (“Golding”) or jointly referred to as the (“Parties”) for the restart of the open pit mining operations at Mt Carbine (the “Project”).

Highlights:

• The Parties have agreed to the first 12-18 months to be completed on a rates and cost-plus basis to establish a site-specific baseline cost, thereafter, the Parties intend to transition to rise and run matrix rates, on fleet composition and material type basis.

• The committed Contract period is 70 months and represents an estimated Contract value of $179M.

• The estimated material movement over the Contract period includes:

  • Approx. 16.3 million tonnes mine waste material;

  • Approx. 6.0 million tonnes mined Ore;

  • Approx. 2.9 million tonnes low-grade stockpile material.

This completes a positive first phase of engagement between the Parties as set out in the ASX release “EQR Executes Early Engagement Contract with Golding for the Restart of Open Pit Mining”, dated 4 July 2022. This has seen several areas finalised over the period, including pit design, equipment selection, contractor engagement, stakeholder engagement, and scheduling.

The Parties agreed to split the Contract into two phases to ensure a refined understanding of the schedule of costs in regard to the unique nature of mining hard rock tungsten. This was done to help de-risk the Project and ensure scope delivery without having to build significant risk pricing upside into the Contract. Phase 1 is estimated at 12-18 months which will be completed on a rates and cost-plus basis, thereafter, the Parties intend to transition to a rise and run matrix rates, on fleet composition and material type basis.

EQR CEO Kevin MacNeill said, “We’re very happy with the relationship we’ve developed with Golding over the past year. It’s been a collaborative process and has been a positive engagement throughout. It feels we’ve gained a long-term partner rather than just a contractor. Their level of professionalism, proactive approach to problem solving and willingness to work with the EQR team has really set them apart.”
