Alignment of BHCP with Australian Critical Minerals StrategyThe BHCP will significantly add to the sovereign capacity of Australia, by:a doubling Australia’s cobalt production from 3,500 tpa to 7,000 tpa;a building the first Australian cobalt refinery to produce cobalt sulphate;a enabling development of a downstream battery industry, through supply of cobalt sulphate as a raw material into a Precursor Cathode Active Material plant;a lowering the economic hurdle for additional (primary and secondary) cobalt supply by providing an intermediate to cobalt sulphate refining capacity;a being the first domestic producer of elemental sulphur, with potential to displace up to 1/3 of national imports; and a providing up to 400 FTE regional jobs in critical minerals for the 20+ year duration of the project, with a significantsocio-economic multiplier effect.The BHCP is the only large scale, ex-African, greenfield primary cobalt project globally – a top fiv, cobalt project (ex-Africa). BHCP production will significantly elevate Australia to become a top three global cobalt producer. QUOTE from COB market update 28/4/22
Notice that reference of being first domestic producer of elemental sulphur with potential to displace 1/3 of national imports , this is a strong benefit to the company when mine is in place IMO.
