THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN
ON SHORE MAGNETITE PRODUCTION.
CONCENTRATE SHIPPED FOR DOWNSTREAM PROCESSING. OFF SHORE PROCESSING IN SAUDI ARABIA.
-
The KSA is a significant user of vanadium products, particularly in its steel sector where demand is estimated at 10 - 12 ktpa and growing at 4 - 5% Year on Year.
-
• High Purity Alumina (HPA) feedstock from Victory Bore could also be processed in KSA where demand is increasing or for export to Europe.
-
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
-
• A low capital cost operation in Australia, with value-add downstream processing and production of high value products in a low energy cost jurisdiction.
