Q&A with stakeholders
Plant optimization is ongoing; all components operational but continuous, cost-effective production not yet achieved.
Optimization is time-consuming and expensive, with current costs at $750/ton and a target of 4,000 tons/month, totaling $3 million/month.
Revenue generation is dependent on achieving consistent plant output; current stockpiles and byproducts (tantalum, quartz) offer future value.
Mutare project under review by a major Chinese mining company; preference is for sale to support other operations, but Canmax has right of first refusal.
RHA tungsten project may become viable again due to improved prices and prior offtake agreements.
Plant process adjustments require significant time to stabilize and assess; lab analysis is a bottleneck.
Plant has produced high-grade spodumene (SC6) in specific circumstances, but consistent output remains a challenge.
In-pit grades are 30-40% higher than original resource model, indicating positive resource potential.
Saleable product will be sold ex-mine gate, with initial parcels being prepared for sale.
