We are uniquely positioned incorporating mining, processing, beneficiation, marketing, sales and logistics. Tharisa is a low cost producer of PGM and chrome concentrates resulting from two distinct revenue streams from a single resource with costs being shared between the commodities. We continue to explore beneficiation opportunities through innovation and technology.

GEOLOGY MG REEF STRATIGRAPHY

GEOLOGY

  • The MG reef package is classified into six chromitite layers

– MG0, MG1, MG2, MG3, MG4, MG4A

  • Partings are generally anorthosite, pyroxenite or norite
  • Reef package varies from 50 m in the west to 74 m in the east

(incl. partings)

  • PGMs are concentrated in the MG2, MG3 and MG4 reefs

KEY FACTS

  • Process plants are owned and operated by

Tharisa

  • Each plant operates independently,

providing flexibility and limiting potential process disruptions

  • Basic process:

─ ROM is crushed and screened ─ Selected reef ROM sent to Challenger Plant to recover foundry and chemical grade ─ Primary milling to liberate chromite crystals ─ Primary spirals to recover chromite ─ Secondary milling to liberate PGM particles ─ Flotation circuit to recover PGM particles ─ Secondary spirals to recover additional chromite

INDEPENDENT PROCESSING PLANTS

VOYAGER PLANT

  • Capacity: 300 ktpm ROM
  • Processes reefs with higher PGM

and lower chromite grades

  • Produces both metallurgical and

chemical grade concentrate GENESIS PLANT

  • Capacity: 100 ktpm ROM
