Mandilla features a large-scale, long-life mine plan with robust financials, targeting 100kozpa gold production for the first 7 years and 845koz over an 11-year LOM.
Feysville, 14km south of Kalgoorlie, offers potential for multiple 100koz-scale deposits, with recent upgrades and maiden resources at Kamperman and Rogan Josh.
Ongoing exploration and drilling continue to expand the resource base and project scale.
Theia is the cornerstone deposit at Mandilla, representing 81% of its resource with 1.02Moz in a single large open pit.
