Updated Feasibility Study and Financial Model
During the quarter, TNG completed an updated Feasibility Study (FS) and Financial Model for its flagship 100%-owned Mount Peake Vanadium-Titanium-Iron Project in the Northern Territory.
The results of the FS reconfirm and enhance the outcomes reported in the Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) completed in 2015 (see ASX Announcement 31 July 2015), reinforcing the robust business case for the Mount Peake Project against the backdrop of a much stronger commodity environment – paving the way for TNG to secure a an attractive and competitive funding package for the project’s development. The updated results are summarised in Table 1 below:
Table 1 – Updated Feasibility Study results as at November 2017
| Updated FS, November 2017 | DFS, July 2015 | |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-production CAPEX (Stage 1 infrastructure,mine site,concentrator, processplant) |
A$853 million | A$970 million |
| Pre-tax IRR | 44% | 41% |
| Pre-tax NPV8% | A$4.7 billion | A$4.9 billion |
| Pre-tax NPV10% | A$3.8 billion | A$4.0 billion |
| Pre-tax NPV12% | A$3.1 billion | A$3.3 billion |
| Pre-tax net annual average cash-flow | A$738 million | A$785 million |
| Life-of-mine net cash-flow | A$11.7 billion | A$11.6 billion |
| Total Operating costs2 | A$185 per tonne of ore processed |
A$167 per tonne of ore processed |
| Payback | 3 years | 4 years |
1Updated Feasibility Study assumptions include long-term A$;US$ exchange rate of 0.75; updated long-term price assumptions of US$22,400/tonne for V2O5 (US$10.00/lb), US$3,500.00/t TiO2 pigment and US$410.00/tonne for Pig Iron All other key physical parameters including mining and processing rates remain unchanged.[2] Includes BOOT repayments
The updated FS achieved a new pre-production Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) of A$853 million, representing a significant decrease of A$117 million from the 2015 DFS CAPEX of A$970 million, due primarily to the optimisations achieved during the past 18 months.
The financial model has shown an increase in the Project’s pre-tax internal rate of return (IRR) to 44% (up from 41%) on with only a moderate increase in forecast Operating Expenditure (OPEX) from A$167 to a$185 per tonne of ore processed[2] and a reduced payback period of 3 years.
The completion of the updated FS and Financial Model marked the culmination of an extensive body of work completed over the past 18 months in conjunction with the Company’s strategic development partner, SMS Group, Como Engineers and METS.
This work also included substantial additional variability test work overseen by Como Engineers in Perth on the TIVAN® flowsheet and mine site beneficiation flowsheet, a number of important enhancements to the TIVAN[R] flowsheet from work undertaken by the SMS Group, and further technical de-risking measures.
Details of the Optimisation Studies completed as part of the updated FS – including the updated Concentrator flowsheet finalised by Como Engineers, the updated and optimised flowsheet for the TIVAN® processing plant, the updated FS assumptions, details of the proposed BOOT (Build-Own-Operate-Transfer) arrangements for the TIVAN® facility, a revised mine schedule, and revised capital and operating cost estimates – were published as part of the detailed announced on the updated Feasibility Study and Financial Model released on 20 November 2017 (“Updated Feasibility Study and Financial Model Confirms Robust Business Case for Development of Mount Peake Vanadium-Titanium-Iron Project”, ASX – 20 November 2017).
Project Approvals
During the quarter, TNG completed and submitted the Environmental Impact Statement Addendum Report for the mine site component of the Mount Peake Project to the Northern Territory Environment Protection Authority ( NTEPA ) for final assessment.
2
==> picture [461 x 20] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [83 x 20] intentionally omitted <==
The submission follows the completion of a number of work streams, including an extensive fieldwork component, which have allowed the EIS Addendum to be finalised. The scope of work leading to the lodgement of the EIS Addendum was agreed with the NTEPA following detailed feedback received on the original EIS submission.
Lodgement of the final EIS Addendum with the NTEPA represents the final step in the Northern Territory process for gaining environmental approval for the mine site component of the Mount Peake Project. The EIS Addendum provides additional information aimed at clarifying matters raised by review respondents.
The Mount Peake Project comprises a mine and processing facility to be located at Mount Peake, approximately 235km northnorthwest of Alice Springs and 50km north-west of Ti Tree, and the Darwin TIVAN® Process Plant, to be located at the Middle Arm Industrial Precinct, some 16km to the south-east of Darwin.
The Mount Peake mine site and processing facility includes a proposed open-cut mining operation, integrated waste landform, ore processing plant, water dams, gas-fired power station, accommodation village, site access roads, Stuart Highway underpass, rail load-out facility and bore-field.
Environmental approvals for the mine and Darwin-based plant are being progressed separately, reflecting both their geographical separation (1,400 km) and the fact that significantly different environmental and social issues need to be addressed at the two locations. The mine and Darwin plant were referred separately to the NTEPA, which determined that both required assessment under the Northern Territory Environmental Assessment Act 1982 (EA Act) at the level of Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).
The mine and Darwin plant were also separately referred to the Commonwealth Department of the Environment under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 . Both were determined to be controlled actions with assessment by accredited assessment under the EA Act.
In late December, the NTEPA advised TNG that it had not requested any further information on the EIS Addendum, clearing the way for it to finalise the Assessment Report and provide it to the Minister, the Company and key Northern Territory agencies to allow the Project to advance to the next stage of approvals and construction (subject to all approvals and financing). The Assessment Report is also provided to the Federal delegate to facilitate completion of the assessment under Federal environmental legislation.
The completion of the EIS process will allow a decision on construction and mine development to move ahead next year subject to financing and other approvals.
Patent Coverage Extended
During the quarter, patents for TNG’s proprietary TIVAN® hydrometallurgical process for the extraction and recovery of highpurity vanadium were approved in both United States of America and Russia after being granted in Australia.
The patents provide protection and security for the Company for one of its core pieces of Intellectual Property as it reaches the final stages of pre-development, reflecting the robustness of its leach process. TNG also owns the trademark “TIVAN”.
The TIVAN® process patent is based on the extraction and recovery of vanadium and was developed by TNG and its metallurgical consultants, Perth-based METS Pty Ltd. The leach process is the backbone of the TIVAN® process which allows the Company to extract vanadium, titanium and iron in commercial grades and quantities. The Company’s long-term business plan is for the TIVAN® process to be developed for licensing globally, which could be potentially highly lucrative for TNG and its shareholders.
The global patent process is being managed by Perth-based patent lawyers WRAYS. Approvals for China, Vietnam, South Africa, the European Union and Canada are currently in process.
Project Finance
TNG is continuing to progress financing discussions in conjunction with its Financial Advisor, Gresham Partners. The updated full financial model will be presented to the leading German Government-owned KfW IPEX-Bank GmbH in early 2018.
Research & Development Refund
During the quarter, TNG received the full amount of its Research & Development refund claim totalling $1,730,700 before costs. The claim covers eligible test work for the 2016/17 financial year under the Federal Government’s R&D tax incentive scheme.
3
==> picture [461 x 20] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [83 x 20] intentionally omitted <==
Under the R&D tax incentive scheme, companies with a turnover of less than $20 million which undertake research & development activities are entitled to a cash refund of 43.5 cents per dollar spent on eligible research and development in Australia. This incentive provides direct assistance for companies like TNG to continue their research and development activities with a view to potentially building further value for shareholders.
TNG’s research relates to the commercial extraction of high-purity vanadium, titanium and iron from vanadiferoustitanomagnetite using its patented TIVAN[™ ] hydrometallurgical process. The TIVAN[™] process forms a key part of the Company’s development plans for its flagship Mount Peake Vanadium-Iron-Titanium Project in the Northern Territory and its strategy to become a significant global supplier of strategic metals.
Commodity Pricing Development
TNG’s expected production commodities all saw further significant improvements during the quarter, capping a strong year in 2017 which saw the following price increases across the Company’s suite of strategic metals:
-
Vanadium pentoxide prices increased by 110% − from US$5/lb to a peak of US$12/lb
-
Titanium dioxide pigment prices increased by 12% − from US$2,900/t to US$3,250/t
-
Pig iron prices increased by 15% − from US$340/t to US$390/t
Importantly, the price increases outlined above appear to represent more of a reversion to the historical mean prices after a period of extremely low sentiment in the industry, rather than a sudden bullish sentiment. The vanadium price in particular has been subject to positive analyst commentary since the beginning of 2018.
Other Prospects at Mount Peake
The Company has identified other significant mineralisation potential in the Mount Peake area.
Graphite
The graphite potential of the Mount Peake Project is also continuing to emerge. This work is still at an early stage, however the graphite prospectivity at Mount Peake represents an exciting emerging opportunity for TNG, and requires further drilling and metallurgical testing. This may occur in 2018.
Other Projects
Cawse Extended Mine Project: Nickel-Cobalt (80%: Mesmeric / 20%: TNG)
The Company has a 20% free-carried interest in the Cawse Extended Mining Lease. As outlined in the last Quarterly Report, the Company understands that Mesmeric Resources has moved significant processing equipment onto the lease and there is potential for mining activity to resume in 2018. Further updates will be provided as they come to hand.
CORPORATE
Annual General Meeting
The Company’s Annual General Meeting was held in Perth on 28[th] November 2017, with all resolutions put to the meeting supported by shareholders. Resolution 8 was withdrawn and not put to the meeting.
Cash
TNG had total cash reserves of $4.83 million at Quarter-end.
