Investor presentation summary
16 Sep, 2026Project integration and economic highlights
Integration of Manna mine and Nova processing plant boosts post-tax NPV to A$946M, a 100% increase over the previous DFS, with a post-tax IRR of 120% and payback in 11 months.
Total pre-production capex reduced to A$180M, 59% lower than the standalone Manna project, with a 13-year mine life and nameplate production of 250ktpa SC5.5.
All-in sustaining cost is A$1,185/t SC5.5, with a break-even SC6 price of US$870/t and LOM average price assumption of US$1,647/t.
Capital savings achieved by acquiring Nova’s established infrastructure, enabling early DSO production and accelerating spodumene concentrate output by mid-2027.
Sensitivity analysis shows robust project economics across key variables, with post-tax NPV remaining strong under various scenarios.
