Port Gregory PFS: post-tax NPV of A$322.8 million and a maiden Ore Reserve


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 brings potential first production forward to the first quarter of 2027.

Company snapshot

Industrial Minerals, Australian-built

Heavy Minerals Limited (ASX: HVY) is an Australian-domiciled industrial minerals developer with a current focus on Garnet. Incorporated in Australia in 2021, the company combines a near-term live tailings processing pathway at Kanmantoo (Hard Rock Garnet) with two large WA Alluvial Garnet projects at Port Gregory and Red Hill, plus an inferred resource position at Inhambane in Mozambique (non-Garnet).

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 HGO, targeting potential first production in the first quarter of 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 end-of-2026 first-production pathway — de-risked by Hillgrove'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.
