Consistent low-cost producer, with a resilient long-term production profile and diversified customer base.
Financial performance and capital management
Year-end 2025 cash and cash equivalents at $48.6m, with net debt rising to $158.8m due to peak capex on WCP A upgrade.

Selective Mining Operation (SMO) contributed 50kt HMC in 2025; SMO 2 commissioning expected in Q3 2026.
WCP A upgrade and transition to Nataka ore zone secures future production, unlocking majority of 9bn tonnes of resources.
