As with the inaugural auction, there was strong interest in both BMX platform participation and bidding within the auction. Pilbara Minerals intends to accept the highest bid of US$2,240/dmt (SC5.5, FOB Port Hedland basis) for the intended 8,000dmt cargo. On a pro rata lithia basis inclusive of freight costs this is approximately equivalent to a price of USD$2,500/dmt (SC6.0, CIF China basis).

Pursuant to the terms of the auction, the bidder is now required to enterinto a sales contract with the Company in the coming days which requires a letter of credit to be presented. Ship loading is expected November.

Given the strong margins yielded through the BMX trading platform to date, Pilbara Minerals expects to channel more concentrate sales through the platform, including concentrate generated from the recommencement of the Ngungaju processing plant.
