Intentionally or not, It appears to contain a lot of information that you might expect to be reserved for a feasability study. The three paragraphs below are straight from the executive summary:

"The above logistic arrangements translate to an overall transportation cost from the mine to the port shiploader at an estimated $93.31 to $73.80 per tonne for 1 Mtpa and 3 Mpta correspondingly."

"The associated estimated upfront capital expenditure required is AUD$89.6 million and AUD$115.8 to support 1 Mtpa and 3 Mtpa throughput respectively. A part of the capital investment differential can be progressively made in certain infrastructure (e.g., accommodation) components as the operations grow towards the ultimate task of 3 Mtpa"

"The annual transportation cost from the mine to the Port only is estimated to be $74.3 to $64.49 per tonne for 1 Mtpa and 3 Mpta correspondingly. The anaylised capital expenditure portion is within the range of 14 % to 25 %."

There's a lot of information there but well worth the read.
