-
Costs include arms length mining infrastructure service agreements with MRL
-
RIM went into commercial production on 1 March 2017. The production costs net of sales receipts of 37Kt of spodumene produced pre 1 March 2017 were capitalised in line with accounting standards. Accordingly, unit revenues and costs set out above for 2H FY17 are derived on 79Kt of spodumene produced post commercial production

“As of the date of this announcement, RIM has shipped a total of about 79,000 tonnes of lithium concentrate, of which 38,000 tonnes have been put into production by the company. After the use of the above raw materials, the calcination of the rotary kiln of the main equipment of the production line has been improved and the energy consumption of the production has been reduced. From the RIM spodumene concentrate, the company has produced about 1,600 tonnes of battery grade lithium carbonate and about 2,800 tonnes of battery grade lithium hydroxide. The company production and operation has produced normal, stable product quality, and has all achieved sales to its customers with the product.” Ganfeng Company Announcement – June 16 2017
