【Ferro-alloys.com】:Element 25 Ltd (ASX:E25, OTCQX:ELMTF) has completed a comprehensive feasibility study (FS) to expand manganese production at its Butcherbird Project in Western Australia with positive outcomes providing a strong case to proceed.

Enhanced production

The expansion promises enhanced production capabilities, economic benefits and alignment with evolving market demands, particularly in the EV sector, while aligning with the company’s commitment to sustainable and responsible mining practices.

E25's study, which concluded this month, evaluates the feasibility of increasing manganese concentrate production to 1.1 million tonnes per annum to leverage economies of scale.

The expansion strategy involves enhanced open-cut mining methods, a modified comminution circuit and the integration of a dense media separation (DMS) back-end solution to optimise grade and recoveries.

Projected annual cash flow from the expanded operation is A$57.3 million, with low capital requirements of A$49.8 million.
