14,000 tons of antimony concentrate which is about 5,000 tons of antimony metal, 14,000 tons or so of gold concentrate at about 50 g of a ton
Management-stated Oct 2025
Grade
high-grade narrower or body
Management-stated Oct 2025
Money on hand
raised 100 US in a bond and $60 million capital raise via the ASX
Stated capital need: about $150 million job

▲ Bull case

Management says Larvotto is building Australia's largest antimony mine—a critical metal commanding premium pricing—with antimony at $60,000/ton (up $20,000 from feasibility), gold concentrate, and a high-grade narrow body.

Management says Larvotto is building Australia's largest antimony mine—a critical metal commanding premium pricing—with antimony at $60,000/ton (up $20,000 from feasibility), gold concentrate, and a high-grade narrow body. An 8-month build finishing Q2, with a 500,000-ton plant scaling costs down, supported by $160 million raised (bond + ASX capital), could yield near-zero unit costs at current prices, making this a near-construction-phase asset with strong funding.

▼ Bear case

Management came to the project two years ago from administration, requiring $150 million capex to deliver.

What it rests on
Evidence: 2 moments from 1 interview
Read the full case

Management came to the project two years ago from administration, requiring $150 million capex to deliver. The deposit is high-grade but narrow and "trickier than some," with metallurgy assumptions resting on 12 months of intensive work on a plant that has produced these concentrates before but never in this configuration. Financing hinges on maintaining antimony and gold prices; dilution risk exists if spot prices weaken or construction delays arise.

◆ Watch next

Build completion end of Q2 and Q3 commissioning start are the critical path milestones.

What it rests on
Evidence: 2 moments from 1 interview
Read the full case

Build completion end of Q2 and Q3 commissioning start are the critical path milestones. Full production "midyear" and AISC performance at spot prices will confirm the negative-cost thesis. Watch antimony price hold above $50,000/ton and any construction delays or metallurgy adjustments that could extend the 8-month timeline or require further capital.

Each moment links to the exact point in the source recording. The cases are drawn from the transcripts, weighed as written — they are not a rating, a target or a recommendation.

region
Armadale, Victoria to Queensland and through New South Wales

Technical risk 1

What was actually said
metallurgy
12 months of really intensive metallurgy, plant has produced antimony concentrate before, produced gold concentrate and produced gold before
“We tied that in with u 12 months of really intensive metal urgy. But of course the plant has done all this before. It's produced antimony concentrate before it's produced gold concentrate and it's it's produced gold before.”

What was actually said
capex
about $150 million job
“So about $150 million job to do that.”
Unknown speaker· 08 Oct 2025·
key assumption
70 million Aussie build on the 500,000 ton plant, about $50 million of underground development
“we're taking that to 500,000 to lower it costs and it it's better suited for the size of your body as well. Uh that's about a 70 million Aussie build on that. Uh we've got about $50 million worth of underground development.”
Unknown speaker· 08 Oct 2025·
operating cost
increasing the capacity of the plant to 500,000 tons, making it better suited for the mine lowering unit costs
“we moved the project forward largely to do what they were doing but uh increasing the capacity of the plant uh making it better suited for the for the mine lowering unit costs and and we put a lot of effort into metal urgy”

price assumption
very conservative on gold and very conservative on antimony, Antimony at 60,000 a ton at the time, 20,000 more than what was in feasibility study
“So, we're very conservative on on gold and very conservative on antimony. But yes, antimony critical metal uh most critical of the criticals um used in armaments, used in solar panels, uh fire retardants. Uh it's it's become the the metal that everybody everybody wants. Uh China banned export of antimony. Uh the US doesn't mine or produce any of any significance at all. U so there was immediate deficits around the world for Yeah. What is the most critical of the critical minerals? >> Abs. Absolutely. I think the uh the the DoD or DOW is it department of war um in the US has um is investing into at equity level in the the very few um antimony potential producers in in North America at the moment. Um well, let's get on to the important bit which is obviously the the the buildout. So in terms of the engineering design um the the I guess the execution model is what I'm interesting. How is the build being managed? >> Uh we're using uh MKA interquip minres which is part of the t group. Um th”

Financing 2

What was actually said
capital needed
$150 million
“So about $150 million job to do that.”
Unknown speaker· 08 Oct 2025·
financing status
raised 100 US in a bond and $60 million capital raise via the ASX
“we we raised 100 US in a bond. Uh a lot of people ask why did we do a bond? There's there hasn't been a bond done in Australia for more than a few years. Um why? Because we could. A lot of projects just aren't able to do that. The story was good enough. uh the cash flows out of it was good enough. It's a very very simple mechanism. Uh it was very very professionally done. Uh we enjoyed working with the people and and the flexibility was there to do it the way you wanted rather than financially saying you've got to do it like this and this is how it is. It was more model to how we were going to work. Uh and then on top of that uh we did a $60 million capital raise um via the ASX.”

Timeline 2

What was actually said
construction start
build is underway now
“So we're doing the the long hole drilling and the blasting. Um and we have the development crew which is an external contractor of uh you know well known in Australia. Uh we haven't strictly signed the signed the contract yet so I won't say their name but uh you know they they understand where we're working and the environment we're working in. So that that's great. Um yeah so many synergies going on for where we are.”

track record
came to the project two years ago, picked it up from administrators, moved project forward increasing plant capacity and lowering unit costs
“we came to the project uh two years ago. Now uh it was in administration from a company that was putting it into production and unfortunately they had a catastrophic failure of another one of their operations. Uh ended up in in all sorts of financial issues due to that. um this operation became part of that. So we we picked up the pieces from the administrators and moved the project forward largely to do what they were doing but uh increasing the capacity of the plant uh making it better suited for the for the mine lowering unit costs and and we put a lot of effort into metal urgy”

How to read this page

What is here

Statements made by company representatives in the interviews listed above — each one carrying the words that made it, the date, and the recording. Nothing is added from any other source: if it was not said on a recording, it is not on this page. The one exception lives in the Claims & Checks record, which cites a metal price from our own feed so a stated cost can be set against it — and labels it as ours wherever it appears.

What is not verified

All of it. Resource figures, economics, timelines and promotional framing are management's own representations, checked against no filing and no technical report. Transcripts are automatic; we repair a clearly mis-heard word but never a number, a date, a unit or a speaker's hedge — “about 8.6 million ounces” keeps its “about”.

How to use it

Treat it as a map of what has been said, not as a source of fact. Where a figure matters to you, open the recording and read the company's filings. Nothing here is financial advice, a recommendation, or an offer to buy or sell any security — these are interested parties discussing their own company.
