Investor presentation summary
26 Oct, 2026Portfolio and strategy
Three Australian project areas span Hillgrove in NSW, Mt Isa in Queensland and Eyre in WA, targeting antimony, gold, tungsten, copper, lithium, rare earths, nickel and other minerals.
Hillgrove is presented as Australia's largest antimony producer and the largest antimony supply source outside China; Australia's $1.2 billion Critical Mineral Reserve Strategy prioritises antimony as one of three critical minerals.
Hillgrove's production target is ~7% of global antimony demand; annual targets are 4,900 t antimony, 40,500 oz gold and potentially 600 t tungsten.
Hillgrove production
Commissioning began July 2026, production commenced August, first concentrate was produced in September and first antimony concentrate delivery was scheduled for October 2026; ramp-up focuses on plant availability and concentrate grades.
First gold concentrate and gold doré deliveries are targeted for Q4 2026; potential tungsten production is targeted for 2027, with metallurgical testwork underway.
Hillgrove's JORC 2012 Ore Reserve totals 3.01 Mt at 6.6 g/t AuEq, containing 304 koz gold, 35.8 kt antimony and 636 koz AuEq.
The JORC 2012 Mineral Resource totals 8.766 Mt at 7.2 g/t AuEq, containing 1,135 koz gold and 96 kt antimony; Measured and Indicated resources total 4.914 Mt at 8.2 g/t AuEq.
90% of staff are local residents; operations use mains power with minimal diesel, and local employment, procurement and community benefits are central to the regional approach.
Hillgrove growth and exploration
Hillgrove has 255 km² of exploration tenure and 14.5 km² of granted production licences; resource growth is intended to support mine-life extension and production optionality.
Initial Metz Exploration Target: 2.8–3.6 Mt at 7.4–9.46 g/t AuEq for 670,000–1.08 Moz AuEq; Midas target: 2.7–10.7 Mt at 2.58–8.55 g/t AuEq for 223,000–2.95 Moz AuEq. Targets are conceptual and require further exploration.
A Mineral Resource upgrade is expected in 2027; multiple mining areas could allow production mix adjustments as antimony and gold prices change, subject to mine planning and ore availability.
Midas has a 900 m strike exploration target; existing Syndicate underground access may provide a pathway to schedule Midas ahead of deeper mineralisation.
More than 200 deposits and occurrences are known on Hillgrove leases, with exploration targets extending below existing workings and the current resource.
