“It is our goal to restart operations at Cloncurry to become Australia’s next copper producer and this Equity Raising will strengthen our balance sheet through to steady state production at the CCP. Backed by our binding offtake and toll milling agreements with Glencore, we are ready to transform our Cloncurry Project into a profitable mining operation. First copper concentrate sales from commercial mining at CPP is expected in 2H 2024 at a time when copper prices are at 10 year highs. Cash flow from mining will fund extensive exploration at both Mt Oxide and the Cloncurry district. We are grateful for the support from our new and existing Shareholders in this – in particular Tembo Capital and Nebari who have committed to sub-underwrite our Retail Entitlement Offer.

In addition to restarting Cloncurry, we have vast potential to grow resources and reserves for this project as well as further build our inventory at the Mt Oxide Project, with a +10km prospective trend we are keen to explore in addition to our Vero Resource which hosts a resource of nearly 16 million tonnes at 1.43% copper and 6.91 g/t silver total combined Measured, Indicated and Inferred resource.”
