ASX Release 6 June 2012 “Cacata Project – Scoping Study Produces Positive Results.” The scoping study test work was completed on material from 8 drill holes representative of the deposit. The recovery numbers were derived from a scrubbing and screening at +212um to 2.36mm. 2. The Dry beneficiation test work was completed on 8 tonnes of sample from two distinct zones in the high grade core of mineralisation. The recovery numbers are derived from sizing the material to 6-19mm, drying to 1-3% moisture followed by air classification to remove the -106um 3. The Wet beneficiation test work is being completed on 10 tonnes of sample from two different locations classified as medium grade. The results are derived from scrubbing and screening the material at +106um and -12.5mm.
M&I Grade Tonnage Options Preliminary Optimisation suggests: • Wet beneficiation will be suited to 9-11Mt of the M&I resources at a cut-off of 26% P2O5 • Dry beneficiation will be suited to 6-8Mt of the M&I resources at a cut off around >28% P2O5 WET DRY Mine engineering studies will optimise the value and utilisation of the entire 15Mt M&I resource incorporating the second stage with flotation.
Cacata Capex Savings Bulk sampling confirmed free digging material will not require ripping. No filter press for product dewatering Transport distance to Porto de Caio is 38km less than 2012 option Dry Beneficiation will not require process water supply and tailings disposal The decision between dry and wet beneficiation will be a tradeoff between additional capex for wet processing and shorter stage 1 mine life for dry processing.
Deepwater Port Porto de Caio Cabinda Located in Cabinda 60km by road from Cacata 12.5m depth ideally suited to phosphate vessel size. Letter of Intent 800tpa port capacity Construction commenced Stage 1 completion scheduled for end 2017
