Performance of Mt Marion Project
Due to the ongoing mining of lower-grade transitional ore and plant shutdowns brought on by the increase in production capacity to 900k tpa (100% basis), the Mt Marion production was lower qoq (quarter on quarter).
In accordance with the cooperation agreement with Ganfeng, MinRes' 51% offtake share of the Mt Marion spodumene concentrate during the quarter was toll converted into 3,772 t of lithium hydroxide and sold. For the quarter, the average achieved price for the sale of lithium hydroxide was US$79,288/t.
Throughout the quarter, drilling was done to explore and learn more about the ore body. For metallurgical testwork studies to maximise product yield via the processing facility, a total of 692 m of diamond core was drilled. Additionally, 6,585 m of reverse circulation drilling for near-mine exploration was finished.
