Analyst Comment:

This is potentially the most significant announcement by Carbine to date. As pyrite is a relatively unknown commodity, we believe the market had uncertainty regarding both the off-take as well as the potential revenue that could be generated from pyrite sales. This announcement should provide comfort regarding both issues as well as confirm that Mount Morgan has the potential to be one of the lowest-cost gold producers in Australia.

In addition, securing offtake will assist Carbine with future debt negotiations as off-take for the pyrite concentrate would be a pre-requisite prior to drawdown.

We maintain our valuation for Carbine at $0.26 / share (current price – $0.07 / share) as the off-take terms were in-line with our previous forecast (PFS).
