West High Yield: Developing a Strategic Critical Minerals High-Grade Magnesium Project with Near-Term Production


West High Yield (TSXV:WHY) focuses on critical minerals with a high-grade magnesium project nearing production. The company’s Record Ridge property will soon capitalize on the opportunity to create a new supply of magnesium outside of China and Russia. West High Yield has an experienced management team ready to bring its project to production.

The 100 percent owned Record Ridge project in British Columbia is poised to create a secure, strategic domestic supply chain to cater to North America’s magnesium demand. The company is currently awaiting permits to begin production. Once production commences, West High Yield will begin generating cash flow through the sale of ore and seek new offtake agreements.

West High Yield Project Location

The Record Ridge asset has one of the largest and highest-grade magnesium deposits in North America, and globally. The company’s resource estimate shows 43 million tonnes of ore at 24.6 percent magnesium, which implies it is a world-class asset containing 10.6 million tonnes of magnesium. In addition, West High Yield’s pre-feasibility study indicates strong economics with an after-tax NPV of 5 percent of $872 million, an internal rate of return (IRR) of 72 percent over a 172-year mine life, and payback in 1.5 years.

West High Yield Exec Says More Secure Magnesium Supply Chain Key to Decarbonization

Manufacturers and governments are increasingly looking to secure alternative magnesium supply as geopolitical events raise concerns about the potential instability of current supply chains.

Magnesium Bike Frames: A Challenge and Opportunity

As cyclists search for the strongest and lightest bike, magnesium may play a role in their quest.
