Resource comprises two thick lodes of vanadiferous magnetite in Gabbro open at depth > 160m and strike of >10km
-
PFS targeted completion by mid-end 2023
-
Metallurgical and other studies progressing
-
Focus on Extraction of Vanadium from concentrate
Victory Bore anorthosite (waste rock) is either side of the gabbro magnetite host and appears valuable:
==> picture [438 x 206] intentionally omitted <==
Ore ratio of Aluminium Oxide (Al2O3)/Vanadium V2O5 4:1 Waste ratio of Al2O3 /V2O5 in waste 25:1 (grades up to 25% Al2O3)
Product is therefore a potentially high grade feedstock for HPA which Surefire evaluating
8
Surefire is evaluating this potential and is in discussion to commence testwork on its high Al2O3 material with leading research group Lava Blue
[1 ] : The predicted new markets for HPA are significant and include
==> picture [137 x 105] intentionally omitted <==
-
LED replacement lighting
-
CO2 emission separators
-
Semi-conductors
-
Lithium Ion battery cells
-
Global total demand for HPA in 2022 was between 60,000 tpa and 80,000 tpa
-
Annual demand growth is between 13.5% and >20%
Eg: IEA and G20 are moving to completely remove fluorescent lighting from the markets by 2025
- Indicating that the lighting replacement market for commercial lighting applications alone – are expected to grow significantly

Grind size of 45µm produces an ultra high grade iron concentrate
A 75µm grind produces a premium grade iron concentrate
Low alumina, phosphorous, and sulphur makes this an attractive product
-
High mass recovery means a low processing cost per tonne of product
-
Ultra high grade attracts a premium iron price, a differential with haematite that is likely to increase into the future
