Q3 2025 TU earnings summary
5 Jun, 2026Executive summary
Scoping Study confirms a 20-year LOM with average annual production of ~4,800t TREO and high-grade (55.3% TREO) MREC product, positioning the project as the lowest-cost rare earth operation in the Western world.
Project development is focused on the Ema deposit, with a simplified, low-risk, and fast-tracked approach.
Updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for the Ema project: 943Mt @ 716ppm TREO globally, with 341Mt @ 746ppm TREO in the starter zone, 73% now in the Indicated category.
No accidents or incidents reported during the quarter; environmental baseline and stakeholder engagement activities ongoing.
Financial highlights
Post-tax NPV8% of US$498M and IRR of 55% at LOM prices of US$74/kg NdPr; payback period of 28 months.
Pre-production capital cost of US$55M (including 35% contingency), with ramp-up capital of US$22.1M in year 4 funded from cash flow.
LOM operating cash cost: US$6.15/kg TREO; all-in sustaining cost: US$6.69/kg TREO.
Annual revenue forecast: US$182M; total LOM revenue: US$3,634M; post-tax net cashflow: US$1,279M.
