Investor presentation summary
15 Jul, 2026Investment highlights
Fully funded gold developer with 4.5Moz Mineral Resources and 351koz Ore Reserves across two large-scale Western Australian projects, aiming for major production growth and a Top 10 Australian producer status.
TARGET200 strategy seeks to achieve over 200koz annual production, leveraging two production hubs: Goldfields and Sandstone.
Goldfields project features a new 1.5Mtpa CIL plant (expandable to 2.5Mtpa), with first gold targeted for June 2027 and a six-year plan averaging 75koz per annum.
Sandstone project holds a 2.9Moz Mineral Resource, with ongoing upgrades and a PFS underway to establish a long-life, large-scale production center.
Robust funding position with $193M equity and US$120M debt secured, and $163M net cash as of March 2026.
Project development and economics
Goldfields project construction is underway, with GR Engineering appointed for a fixed-price EPC contract, de-risking the build and enabling future expansion.
Life-of-mine plan includes staged open-pit and underground mining, with three open pits delivering over 70% of total production.
Goldfields DFS2.0 outlines a pre-tax NPV of $606M, IRR of 74%, and $1.0B free cash flow over six years at A$6,000/oz gold price.
Average annual production is ~75koz, with a group AISC of $2,998/oz and payback period of approximately 15 months.
Sandstone project is advancing through a two-year strategic plan, targeting resource upgrades, maiden Ore Reserve, and a large-scale processing plant.
Exploration and growth strategy
Over 100,000m of drilling planned for CY26, transitioning from infill to growth-focused exploration to expand and upgrade resources.
Sandstone offers significant exploration upside, with shallow resources and limited historical systematic exploration, plus greenfield targets.
Montague project within Sandstone provides 664koz at 1.3g/t Au, with potential for open-pit development and haulage to the central plant.
Central Sandstone hosts multiple deposits with over 1Moz in Inferred Resources, targeted for conversion to higher confidence categories.
Exploration strategy now focuses on both resource quality and growth, aiming to illustrate the full scale of the Sandstone gold camp.
