Interestingly, while they’re generating the assay data needed for the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate, they’re simultaneously producing actual tantalum concentrates that potential offtakers can evaluate.
This means they’re producing representative coltan concentrate right now that downstream users can assess for quality, recovery rates and commercial parameters.
Coltan concentrates are typically sold at approximately 30% Ta₂O₅ (tantalum pentoxide) equivalent. Tantalum prices are currently reported in excess of $250,000 per tonne - up from the $200,000 mentioned in earlier company communications and significantly higher than the November 2022 peak levels.
