what happened
Mining company MMA reported that its resource exceeds 65 Mt. The preliminary economic assessment (PEA) of the Starter Zone showed an NPV at an 8% discount rate of A$377m at study pricing and A$908m at spot pricing.
The company plans a 40,000 m drilling program and a pre-feasibility study (PFS) aimed at a larger development case of 2.0 Mtpa. Updated studies are targeted for the second half of FY27. The information was published by TradingView.
why it matters
The gap between study and spot pricing shows how sensitive the project's valuation is to commodity prices, with NPV more than double at spot. For investors in projects like this, the results of further studies will show whether it can move to a larger scale.
