Key highlights of the Henty Gold Mine include:

  • Established production platform: Henty Gold Mine is a proven gold production operation, with historical production of 1.4Moz -8.9g/t2. Since its acquisition by Catalyst in 2021, significant operational improvements have been made, including investments in drill platforms, drilling, tailings, underground fleet and people.
  • 5-year mine plan: Work to date has culminated in establishing a robust 5-year mine plan underpinned by a current Ore Reserves of 1.2Mt @ 4.0g/t for 154koz3. There is significant scope to extend mine life based on the current Mineral Resource of 4.1Mt @ 3.4g/t Au for 449koz3 along with the opportunities for near-mine exploration and development success.
  • Significant infrastructure: The Henty mine benefits from significant infrastructure including a 300ktpa CIL processing plant, surface & underground workshops, administration complex, access to hydro generated grid power and refreshed tailings storage capacity.
  • Implement and build on operational capacity: The Kaiser executive team brings extensive experience in optimising similar assets through a combination of operational improvement and targeted exploration investment. Supported by Catalyst as a 19.99% strategic shareholder, and skilled operating team and local workforce of over 150 employees, Kaiser is well-positioned to drive further value.
  • Flagship asset: As Kaiser’s flagship asset, Henty will receive dedicated focus to continue the significant work completed by Catalyst and further drive operational improvements.
  • Significant increase to Kaiser’s gold production: Kaiser has transformed into a multi-asset gold producer with +30koz of annual production. This allows Kaiser to generate immediate cashflow, providing the Company with enhanced financial flexibility for further reinvestment, exploration, debt reduction or return to shareholders. The current record gold price environment provides Kaiser with an excellent opportunity to generate strong margins from an operation that has historically held a stable cost base.
