No Excuse - statements from the audited results which show the timeliness of the expansion at Inyoni:
During February 2021, Jubilee commenced with the capitalisation and expansion of the 50 000 tonnes per month Inyoni PGM plant to a 75 000 tonnes per month processing facility. This formed part of the refocusing of the Inyoni Operation to a third-party processing facility for a variety of clients;
Achieved stated target of 50 162 PGM5 ounces for FY2021 (up 23% compared with 40 743 ounces for FY2020); this was achieved during a period which included the construction and commissioning of two new chrome beneficiation facilities and the commencement of the construction of the expanded and refocused Inyoni PGM operation
The expansion project of Inyoni PGM operations including an extended recovery circuit to target a variety of feed materials, was completed during October 2021
So, there is an overlap between the two financial years for the upgrade and we've had a 75,000tpm facility since October rather than 50,000tpm
