Mineral Sand Markets – Zircon

==> picture [77 x 53] intentionally omitted <==

  • ➢ Chinese zircon demand softened during late 19 & 1H’20 as the COVID-19 pandemic impacted downstream demand and international exports.

  • ➢ Global supply side disruptions have provided some stability to pricing.

  • ➢ Chinese domestic zircon stocks now low following a destocking by large Chinese buyers.

  • ➢ International downstream consumers returning to production after period of lockdown.

  • ➢ Current zircon prices currently at levels that may jeopardise/delay new project development.

  • ➢ Prices substantially higher than Image break-even price.

Mineral Sand Markets – TiO 2

==> picture [77 x 53] intentionally omitted <==

  • ➢ TiO 2 markets showing strength and stability.

  • ➢ Ilmenite markets buoyed by limited global supply exacerbated by Chinese domestic mine suspensions and strong operating rates at sulfate pigment plants and relatively low inventory levels

  • ➢ Rutile markets remain stable in part due to longer dated nature of industry offtake arrangements.

  • ➢ USD pricing expected to remain relatively stable through Q3 2020 with some moderation expected by year end.

Operational Performance – Cost Control

==> picture [77 x 53] intentionally omitted <==

Demonstrating cost discipline

  • ➢ Improved operating rates and expected ore grade are supporting high HMC production rates which in conjunction with continued cost discipline are reflected in falling unit costs.

  • 1H 2020 sales impacted by COVID & shipping delays but shipping rates now improving – target for 2H 2020 of 190-200Kt (refer 27 July announcement for further details). HMC inventory of 114kt at 30 June 2020.

Image has made no change to 2020 guidance following the emergence of COVID-19 at the end if the March Quarter. Following the increasingly volatile economic landscape Image would like to emphasise there are a number of factors outside of its control that may impact downstream demand for its end products and therefore sales guidance. Image is continually reassessing its guidance position and will update the market if required and at a minimum will comment on guidance as part of its quarterly reporting.

  • Existing Mineral Resources at 100%-owned Helene and Hyperion deposits deemed to be within economic pumping distance of Atlas

14

Multiple Extension Areas at Boonanarring

==> picture [77 x 53] intentionally omitted <==

  • Northern

  • ➢ Initially focused on areas within 10km of Extension Area

  • current location of Boonanarring Wet Northwest Concentration Plant (WCP) Extension Area

  • Southern Extension Area • Access available; within current environmental footprint Southern

  • • Extension Lower grades than NEA implies lower potential to add mine life Area

  • New 50mRL Strandline Boonanarring

  • • Announced December 2019 West

  • • Includes Northwest Extension Area, Blue Lake, Boonanarring West and Gingin North and South
