Hillgrove Resources (ASX:HGO) is a fully funded copper mine redeveloper with a market capitalisation of $113 million and excellent leverage to the copper price via imminent production and exploration appeal. The company’s Kanmantoo underground mine and 3.6mt processing facility is scheduled to recommence processing ore in the March quarter of CY ’24 at 1.5mt pa. Estimated Measured and Indicated Ore Resources total 5.3 million tonnes grading 1.1% Cu supports an initial mine plan to produce 44 Kt of copper and 11 Koz of gold over a four-year programme.
Ore will be sourced predominantly from development of two of nine recognised underground copper-gold lodes. Underground ore production is set to ramp up to 1.5mt pa at a grade of around 1% copper, after applying a cut-off grade of 0.6% Cu. An initial 10-11Kt of copper production in concentrate is target in the first full year of operation, moving to a high of 15Kt in later years.
A well-maintained processing plant will operate on a two-week cycle of production and maintenance but could be reconfigured to boost output beyond 1.5mt pa or extend mine life if additional mineralised zones are discovered and developed.
Ore is readily processed using a course grind size of 300 micron, enabling copper recovery of up to 94% into a clean concentrate at an estimated all-in sustaining cost of $8,000 per tonne or ~US$2.30/lb.
The project is located within a 45-minute drive from Adelaide’s CBD. Unlike many others in the resources sector, Hillgrove has had little difficulty attracting quality staff who can commute from home and maintain family life.
