Investor Presentation summary
2 Jul, 2025Strategic vision and business overview
Expanding operations at the Butcherbird Manganese Mine in Western Australia to produce high-quality manganese oxide concentrate and battery-grade HPMSM for global EV markets.
Developing a vertically integrated supply chain with a planned HPMSM refinery in Louisiana, USA, supported by offtake and funding agreements with GM and Stellantis.
Targeting global expansion with additional HPMSM modules in Europe and Asia to supply sustainable, low-carbon manganese products.
Share register includes significant holdings by offtake partners and management, with 229M shares on issue and no debt.
Butcherbird project resources and expansion
Butcherbird hosts over 270Mt in resources and 101.4Mt in reserves, supporting an 18+ year mine life at 1.1Mtpa production.
Resource is metallurgically clean, with no toxic contaminants and low strip ratio, enabling low-cost, low-impact operations.
Expansion feasibility study projects AU$561M NPV, 96% IRR, AU$70.5M annual cashflow, and 1.3-year payback on AU$64.8M capex.
Expansion aims to move production costs lower on the global cost curve, with robust demand and negotiations for additional offtake.
Processing technology and ESG leadership
Proprietary process technology reduces reagent use, carbon emissions, and waste, producing non-toxic residues.
Life cycle assessment shows HPMSM process emits ~1.7kg CO2/kg, 67% lower than Chinese competitors and 26% below the next best global project.
Digbee ESG benchmarking awarded a BB rating for 2024, with executive KPIs now linked to ESG outcomes and ongoing improvements in reporting.
