Group Highlights
§ Production for Q1 2023 of 943 mtV (Q1 2022: 973 mtV).-slightly down, but explained why.
§ Weighted average production cash cost1 (C1) for Q1 2023 of US$25.9/kgV (Q1 2022: US$26.6/kgV).-heading in the right direction.
§ Increase in sales for Q1 2023 of 1,028 mtV (Q1 2022: 857 mtV), owing to increased sales out of inventory.-happy with this as cash is king.
§ Secured a third-party low-silica feed for Vanchem to support more stable production rates at no additional cost.-unbelievably good, well done team.
§ Completed construction and cold commissioning of the BELCO electrolyte plant.-great news, with discussions ongoing with the end users in relation to sales and off-take agreements, again great news.
I’m happy
