Altura Mining Ltd Altura Mining Ltd th 27 September 2013 INVESTMENT SUMMARY ASX Code AJM Altura Mining Ltd (ASX code: AJM) has a compelling portfolio of projects materially Shares on issue (m) 454.2 undervalued and offering significant long term upside. AJM will achieve pivotal milestones over the next twelve months with an emerging production profile and Share price $0.13 resultant free cash flow, significantly enhancing the AJM proposition. Market Cap (m) $59.1 Cash(m) $3.4 Altura has well-credentialed management and board with extensive experience and Enterprise Value(m) $55.7 well demonstrated capabilities in all aspects of major project development and delivery. Minority stake in the Delta Coal Mine in Kalimantan Indonesia, current production of 1.5mtpa of mid ranking low ash thermal coal. AJM is forecasting a run rate of 2mtpa over medium term. Final investment decision reached at Mt Webber iron ore project with first shipments scheduled for Q2 2014, elevating AJM to Pilbara Iron ore exporter status via JV Atlas Iron with attributable production 900,000tpa. Pilgangoora Lithium emerging world class hard rock lithium project. Existing resource of 25 million tonnes at 1.23% Li2O, encouraging scoping study delivered. Established Exploration Services business forecasting FY2013 EBITDA earnings of $US1.875m with history of cash flow generation. Tabalong Coal High Energy Low Ash Thermal Coal, low capital intensity, awaiting final 12 month high $0.21 approvals for initial production. 12 month low $0.076 Balline Garnet project, resource/reserve at 8.4% HM assemblage predominantly Daily turnover (m) $0.534 Garnet with Titanium group metals. Recommendation Speculative Buy Valuation $0.385 Broad portfolio of highly prospective exploration assets with encouraging data to date. Management James Brown ……………………….Managing Director Paul Mantell………………………….Executive Director VALUATION Allan Buckler…………………Non-Executive Director Beng Teik Kuan ………….…Non-Executive Director We have updated our valuation on Altura maintaining a speculative buy rating and a Dan O’Neill………………...…Non-Executive Director valuation of $0.385 using applicable asset valuation methodologies for individual assets. At both Delta and at Mt Webber there is a developing visibility to earnings, for any Peter Wright development company the establishment of earnings is pivotal. We have assumed BCP Equities Pty Ltd enduring subdued pricing in thermal coal and a long term price of $USD120/t cfr for [email protected] Pilbara Fines 62% a discount to prevailing 07 3212 9218 prices along with an $AUD/$USD of $0.90. We have moderated our valuation post initiation note reflecting several factors BCP Equities Pty Ltd namely more moderate coal prices and the on-going ambiguity regarding forestry ABN 49 145 857 512 permits at Tabalong. Corporate Authorized Representative of Centec Securities Pty Ltd We see several valuation catalysts over the AFS Licence No. 240877 next twelve months. Successful Level 9, Waterfront Place,1 Eagle Street commissioning at Mt Webber is crucial BRISBANE QLD 4000 enabling Altura to be valued on GPO Box 1164 BRISBANE QLD 4001 conventional investment metrics. Email: [email protected] INVESTMENT VIEW The breadth, composition and potential for long term value creation of Altura’s portfolio are not reflected at the current market price. At $0.13 AJM is more a reflection of a challenging market for junior resource companies than Altura’s long term potential. With a market capitalisation of circa $59m Altura has several constituent assets that in a more benign broader market could plausibly support the current market cap, chief among them Mt Webber. Altura is well placed to emerge from a challenging period for junior miners and reach key milestones via the delivery of production and cash flow with the commercialisation of vital components of its portfolio. Within 12 months Altura will be generating significant free cash flow from Mt Webber (Iron Ore) and Delta (Thermal Coal) for a modest capital outlay. Contrasted against a market cap of $59m we see the potential for considerable valuation uplift, at Mt Webber in particular projected free cash flow will allow the application of conventional investment metrics. At prevailing AUD denominated iron ore prices of circa $135 Altura would trade on very modest multiples from Mt Webber alone. Adding the operating Delta project, the continued emergence of Pilgangoora and its considerable scope to attract a joint venture partner, along with Tabalong finally navigating the arduous Indonesian permitting process we see several catalysts and minimal downside to the prevailing market price. Altura will attain the status of Pilbara Iron ore exporter via the development of the Mt Webber with joint venture partner Atlas Iron (ASX Code AGO). We view the announcement of 8th July 2013 as encouraging on several fronts, the modest capital requirement from Altura to develop, reflecting the capacity of management to negotiate a sound outcome with ostensibly a modest hand. The low capital intensity of the project overall is pleasing and reflective of a rapidly moderating cost environment. The short lead time to first product and progress to date is pleasing. Acknowledging the healthy deferral of capital expenditure into Operation expense, we arrive at an all-inclusive operating cfr cost of $89.71 a tonne at cost at which we see the scope for considerable free cash flow with prevailing AUD received price of over $A150.00. Factoring in deductions for product we can see scope for the project generating free cash flow in the vicinity of $20m annually equating to 40% of the companies market cap. At Delta Coal; Altura has acquired an Indonesian production profile producing a mid-ranking thermal coal at a reasonable margin. Altura has identified the scope to optimise production for an annual run rate of 2 million tonnes with Altura having a 33% attributable share of production. Whilst Delta delivers on a long held ambition of attaining a production profile the Tabalong asset remains the driver of long term coal strategy for Altura. Progress at Tabalong has been frustrating with the majority of an involved permitting process to first coal largely completed with only the Pinjam Pakai (forestry approval remaining). Whilst hard to get visibility on successful permitting, any clarity on production timeline would serve as a major catalyst to Altura. Considering Tabalong hosts an existing resource/reserve of ICI-1 category coal, has a low capital intensity a considerable tenement footprint and the scope for growing both resource inventory and attributable production any progress would serve as a significant value catalyst. At Pilgangoora Altura has an exposure to Lithium with the third largest undeveloped hard rock lithium resource in the world. Altura has tabled a scoping study forecasting a modest capex of $96m and project NPV of $93m. We see considerable potential for Altura to create value with Pilgangoora, be it through a JV agreement with a strategic investor or asset spin off over the coming twelve months. Altura has within its structure several other valuable components; the exploration services business has consistently delivered free cash flow at reasonable margin. The Balline garnet project in West Australia has a resource and reserve of 65mt at 8.4% HM with an assemblage dominated by Garnet along with Titanium metals and a considerable exploration portfolio. Altura is a conservatively run company with management and board having a depth of experience in delivering projects and running successful companies primarily through New Hope Coal. Within the next twelve months we see the Altura proposition rapidly derisking with progress to production at Mt Webber. In summary Altura represents a sound opportunity at current prices which reflect little of the companies’ long term value potential. AJM has all the portents for significant value creation over the longer term with sound assets exposed to commodities with compelling long term fundamentals. AJM has credentialed management, near term production at Mt Webber, an expanding production base in Indonesia, an emerging lithium asset, broad exploration portfolio and profitable Mining services business. For those willing to look past the immediate market sentiment Altura represents a considerable opportunity with several visible and significant catalysts. 2 MT WEBBER IRON ORE Altura owns a 30% interest in the strategically placed Mt Webber deposit. Mt Webber hosts a 42mt resource with 34mt of this classified as reserve, the current resource to reserve conversion ratio is running above 97%. Whilst a nominally meagre ore body by Pilbara metrics the key differentiation is the identifiable pathway to market. Mt Webber needs to be viewed in this context with its relative proximity to port allowing road haul. Mt Webber is located within 220klms from the Port Hedland Port Authorities (PHPA) Utah Point common user facility where JV partner Atlas has an export allocation of 6mtpa moving to 12mtpa by 2015. TH DECISION TO MINE 8 JULY 2013 July 8th Altura and Atlas Iron (ASX code AGO) announced the decision to mine at Mt Webber. As highlighted in previous reports Mt Webber is of critical strategic importance to Atlas reaching its Horizon 1 goals via road haul and its prized inner harbour capacity at Port Hedland via Utah Point. Mt Webber will produce 3 mtpa of a fines product at a target head grade of 57.0%. The project comes with a forecast capex of $145m materially below estimates and reflective of a major slowdown in the West Australian Mining sector and an emerging competitiveness in tendering. Altura has a modest capital expenditure at Mt Webber of $5m with Atlas recouping a proportion of its capex via a management fee and an infrastructure access fee of $17/t of production. The governing parameters of the project have improved post the announcement of the deal with a previously rigidly strong AUD retreating from a $1.04 average throughout 2012 to be currently trading circa $0.93, weaker exchange rates have a material effect on project NPV.

  • Roy Hill Celebrates Historic First Shipment
    10 December 2015 Roy Hill Celebrates Historic First Shipment Hancock Prospecting Pty Ltd and Roy Hill Holdings Pty Ltd are pleased to announce the historic inaugural shipment from Port Hedland of low phosphorous iron ore from the Roy Hill mine on the MV ANANGEL EXPLORER bound for POSCO’s steel mills in South Korea. Mrs Gina Rinehart, Chairman of Hancock and Roy Hill Holdings Pty Ltd, said “The Roy Hill mega project is the culmination of hard-work from the dedicated small executive and technical teams at Hancock and more recently by the entire Roy Hill team.” “Given that the mega Roy Hill Project was a largely greenfield project that carried with it significant risks and considerable cost, it is remarkable that a relatively small company such as Hancock Prospecting has been able to take on and complete a project of this sheer size and complexity.” “The Roy Hill Project has recorded many achievements already and with the first shipment it will also hold one of the fastest construction start-ups of any major greenfield resource project in Australia. This is a considerable achievement, and although the media refer to a contractors date for shipment, it remains that the shipment still occurred ahead of what the partners schedule had planned in the detailed bankable feasibility study.” “The performance on the construction gives great confidence we can achieve performance as a player of international significance in the iron ore industry. To put the scale of the Roy Hill iron ore project into perspective in regard to Australia’s economy, when the mine is operating at its full capacity, Roy Hill will generate export revenue significantly greater than either Australia's lamb and mutton export industry or our annual wine exports.

  • Case Study: Rio Tinto Iron Ore (Pilbara Iron) Centralized Monitoring Solution
    Case Study: Rio Tinto Iron Ore (Pilbara Iron) Centralized Monitoring Solution of 2007, seven mines all linked by the world’s largest privately owned rail network. CHALLENGES To meet the growing demand for their iron ore, particularly from the ever-growing Chinese market, Pilbara Iron were faced with the challenge of increasing production from their mining operations, or more importantly preventing stoppages in production, while maintaining quality. It was recognized that the process control systems at their processing plants were critical assets required to be available and reliable while keeping the plant within the optimal production limits. At the same time the mining industry, like most industries, was and is facing a worldwide shortage of skilled labor to operate and maintain their plants. Rio Tinto Iron Ore Figure 1. Pilbara Iron’s operations has the added burden of very remote mining operations, making it even harder to attract and retain experienced and skilled labor, PROFILE particularly control and process engineers. The mining operations of Rio Tinto Iron Ore (Pilbara Iron) in Australia are located in the Pilbara Region, In order to offer the benefits of living in a a remote outback area in northwest Western modern thriving city, a group of process control Australia, some 1200 kilometers from Perth.

  • Appendix 1 – Project Changes to the New Acland Coal Mine Stage 3
    22nd November 2011 Prof David Shearman Secretary, Doctors for the Environment Australia Dear Professor Shearman I am writing to ask if you could please bring the health experience and expertise of your organisation to help us with a matter of extreme concern to our community. It is regarding the proposed Stage 3 expansion of New Hope Corporation (NHC) open cut coal mine, a Project of State Significance currently under consideration by the Queensland Coordinator General, Mr Keith Davies. The Oakey Coal Action Alliance is greatly concerned about this large mine due to existing and future health and social impacts on nearby residents. Residents of Acland, Jondaryan and Muldu are already experiencing intolerable living conditions and impaired health which will worsen considerably with approval of the expansion, doubling output from 4.8 million tonnes per annum to nearly 10 million tonnes per annum of coal. Summary of the project Acland is a small town 14 km north of Oakey, and is part of the Walloon coal measure. It previous population was between 200-400 people. There were a number of small underground collieries in the district including the Acland No 2 Colliery, a unique complex on the QLD Heritage Register. It ran from 1911-1984 and as a museum thereafter. Acland had a proud history of Tidy Town participation including judged QLD first Tidiest Town in 1990, due largely to the community parks and gardens established by Mrs Thelma Beutel. Acland is located in good quality agricultural land which supported 5 generations of farming families. 1999 New Hope (a subsidiary of Soul Pattison Group) purchased coal tenements from Shell.
