The company has successfully tested the material handling system, with low grade iron ore fed into the plant as the first stage of full load commissioning.

Its technicians have run water through the plant, and are optimising product and water transfer chutes and piping works between equipment. The next step involves moving to further progress the full load commissioning with low grade ore to be systematically fed through the complete plant components to produce high grade premium price product, grading between 58-62% Fe.

NSL’s Managing Director and CEO Cedric Goode said the company was also progressing discussions with Indian steel mill BMM Ispat under its offtake agreement, adding that both parties were excited and encouraged by the potential outcomes related to the supply and pricing of NLS’s premium product.

“With continued milestones being achieved on site, the operation has now reached the final stages of development and is now transitioning towards production of our premium product,” Mr Goode said.

“The efforts of the team on site have been nothing short of extraordinary, working tirelessly to get the operation to this point and are energised by the Company’s future.”
