24-year mine life · IRR 47.6% · development capital A$122.1 million

The Pre-Feasibility Study confirms Port Gregory as a 24-year Garnet operation with a Maiden Ore Reserve of 85.5 Mt at 4.43% THM. This is currently the largest of the Company's three Australian Garnet Projects and one it intends to build subject to a positive DFS. Ahead of it, the tailings processing agreement at Kanmantoo Mine targets potential first production in 2027.

Strategy

Sequenced by capital intensity and time-to-cash

HVY prioritises projects by time-to-cash and capital intensity:

  • Near-term — Kanmantoo tailings retreatment with Kantra, targeting potential first production in 2027 at 100 ktpa.
  • Mid-term — Port Gregory DFS commencement followed by FID; 5.9 Mt contained Garnet supports a flagship Australian operation.
  • Long-term — Red Hill exploration upside in WA and Inhambane optionality in Mozambique.

Why HVY

Three reasons the market is watching

Industrial demand

Garnet is critical to abrasive blasting, waterjet cutting and filtration — markets driven by infrastructure renewal, energy transition and shipbuilding. Stable industrial fundamentals.

Near-term production

Kanmantoo Hard Rock Garnet Project puts HVY on a credible pathway to first production in 2027 — de-risked by Kantra's existing operating envelope.

Resource depth

5.9 Mt of contained Garnet at Port Gregory plus substantial Red Hill exploration upside — one of the largest Garnet inventories in the world.
