Diggers & Dealers Mining Forum 2026 summary
26 Aug, 2026Strategic progress, vision, and asset integration
Advanced from explorer to near-term gold and copper producer, integrating Ravensthorpe and Forrestania assets and focusing on scalable production in Western Australia.
Strategic acquisition of Forrestania, including processing plant and tenements, expanded production profile and mine life.
Strategy emphasizes capital efficiency, strong margins, and multiple growth options, including dual production assets and early production initiatives.
Management strengthened with high-caliber hires to support transition and growth.
Institutional and corporate support increased, reflecting confidence in assets and strategy.
Project development and operational milestones
First production expected next quarter, targeting steady state within 12 months at 80,000 oz/year, with first gold targeted for Q2 2027.
Fully permitted Ravensthorpe project, with box cut excavation starting this month and portal in November.
Forrestania plant leveraged for rapid, capital-efficient production; upgrades and modifications underway.
Early processing strategy at Forrestania to generate cash flow and cover holding costs ahead of Ravensthorpe ore.
Third-party ore deliveries and toll treatment agreements secured, providing immediate revenue streams.
Resource growth and exploration upside
Ravensthorpe resource at 950,000 oz (sulfide), with additional 240,000 oz (oxide/transitional) as future growth.
Kundip Mining Centre has a global MRE of 1.1Moz, with lodes open at depth and new high-grade discoveries.
Forrestania tenements include 33–53 gold prospects, historical resources, and significant untested data.
Lounge Lizard prospect undergoing confirmatory drilling and resource estimate, positioned as a near-term second feed source.
Systematic exploration underway to identify additional feed sources and extend mine life.
