Notes
Armadale's wholly-owned Mahenge Liandu Graphite Project is
located in a highly prospective region, with a high-grade JORC
compliant indicated and inferred mineral resource estimate
announced February 2018 - 59.5Mt at 9.8% TGC. This includes 11.5Mt
@ 10.5% Measured 32.Mt Indicted at 9.6% and 15.9Mt at 9.8% TGC,
making it one of the largest high-grade resources in Tanzania.
The work to date has demonstrated the Project's potential as a
commercially viable deposit, with significant tonnage, high-grade
coarse flake and near surface mineralisation (implying a low strip
ratio) contained within one contiguous ore body.
The Company's updated Definitive Feasibility Study (June 2020)
confirmed Mahenge as a long-life low-cost graphite project with a
US$430m NPV and IRR of 91% based on a two-stage expansion strategy
comprising:
-- Stage One - processing plant and infrastructure at a nominal
design basis rate of 0.4-0.5 Mt/pa to produce a nominal 60,000t/pa
graphite concentrate in the first three years of production
-- Stage Two - a second 0.5 Mt/y plant and associated additional
infrastructure doubling throughput to 1 Mt/y from Year 5 of
operation
The DFS shows that Armadale can be a significant low-cost
supplier to the graphite industry with the potential to generate
pre-tax cashflows of US$985m over an initial 15 year mine-life and
scope for further improvement as this utilises just 25% of the
current resource, which remains open in multiple directions.
Projected timeline to first production is expected to be
approximately 10-12 months from the start of construction and the
capital cost estimate for Stage 1 is US$39.7m, which includes a
contingency of U$S4.1m or 15% of total direct capital cost, with a
1.6 year payback for Stage 1 (after tax) based on an average sales
price of US$1,112/t. Stage 2 expansion is expected to be funded
from cashflow.
