  • Heraeus Precious Appraisal I 1 Precious Metals Review
    HERAEUS PRECIOUS Ed. 36 APPRAISAL th 14 October 2019 MARKET SPOTLIGHT Implats aligns its output more closely with future order books Impala Platinum (Implats) is acquiring North American Palladium (NAP) for ~$758 million. Implats will gain an existing mine, Lac des Iles, which is a primary palladium mine. It has very small amounts of platinum, gold and copper by-products. This will provide Implats with immediate low-cost palladium production at a time when palladium prices are very high and are expected to remain high. NAP reported all-in sustaining costs of $875/oz in H1’19, against an average palladium price of $1,411/oz. The acquisition reduces the combined company’s average cost of production. Lac des Iles is situated in Canada so this also provides geographic diversification of production and reduces the company’s exposure to high-cost, deep-level conventional mining. The acquisition does not add any extra palladium production to the market. Impala’s output moves closer to what the market requires. Based on 2018 production, the addition of Lac des Iles’ output to that of Implats increases attributable palladium output by 37% to 887 koz and Implats’ palladium output stays fairly stable going forward. This reduces the ratio of the company’s platinum to palladium production significantly from 1.71:1 to 1.27:1. The ratio of platinum to palladium demand globally (excl. investment) in 2018 was 0.70:1, and palladium demand is expected to grow faster than platinum demand. Implats has the potential to maintain or increase its palladium production. Lac des Iles’ life-of-mine could be extended beyond 2027.
