Investor presentation summary
6 May, 2026Project overview and strategy
Developing a globally significant palladium-nickel-copper mine in Western Australia, targeting FID in H1 2028 and first production in 2030.
Gonneville is the largest and lowest-cost undeveloped PGM reserve in the western world, with a 23-year open-pit life and robust financial metrics.
Project is substantially de-risked with $250M invested, strong land position, and advanced permitting and feasibility studies underway.
Board and management include experienced mining executives and strategic advisors, enhancing project execution and stakeholder engagement.
Strong institutional shareholder base and financial position, with ~$63M in cash and investments, funded through to FID.
Resource, reserve, and production profile
Mineral Resource: 17Moz 3E (Pd-Pt-Au), 960kt Ni, 540kt Cu, 96kt Co; Ore Reserve: 7.1Moz 3E, 400kt Ni, 260kt Cu, 43kt Co.
Production profile: ~220kozpa 3E, 7ktpa Ni, 8ktpa Cu, 0.7ktpa Co over 23 years, exploiting only ~50% of the resource.
Low strip ratio (1.2x), high grades near surface, and significant high-grade core with strong mining continuity.
Resource remains open at depth, with substantial upside for future expansion via deeper open-pit or underground mining.
Financials and cost competitiveness
Pre-tax NPV8 of A$1.4–2.0bn and IRR of 23–29% at base and spot prices, with rapid 2.4–2.7 year payback.
All-in sustaining costs of US$370/oz 3E, placing the project in the second quartile globally and as the lowest-cost undeveloped PGM project.
Exceptional leverage to palladium price increases, with significant NPV and cashflow uplift per US$100/oz Pd price rise.
Development CapEx estimated at A$820M, with strong inbound interest from sovereign and export credit agencies for up to 60–70% debt funding.
