Robust Base Case Economics:
An after-tax NPV of 6% of $1.07 billion, IRR of 28%- and 1.9-year payback period based on the 3-year trailing average metal prices at the effective date
Strong critical mineral production during pre-production and the first three years of commercial operation:
151 Mlbs of payable copper, 720 koz of payable palladium and 156 koz of platinum
Initial Capital Cost:
C$992 million
Attractive AISC:
