Red Metal启动Sybella稀土项目前期可行性研究

澳大利亚矿业公司Red Metal已启动其Sybella稀土项目的前期可行性研究1。该项目位于昆士兰州西北部Mount Isa以南20公里处，拥有全球重要的大规模稀土矿床1。根据JORC认证，该项目的勘探目标为24亿至49亿吨1。

Red Metal已聘请DRA Global、AMDAD和The Core Group三家昆士兰咨询公司参与此次研究1，这些机构将负责采矿和加工工艺的设计、成本评估和优化工作1。前期可行性研究将以年处理2000万吨矿石为基础情景进行建模，同时还将评估年处理1000万吨或2500万吨的可缩放方案1。该研究预计将于今年年底或明年初完成1。

Australian mining company Red Metal has initiated a pre-feasibility study for its Sybella rare earths project, located 20 kilometers south of Mount Isa in northwestern Queensland.1 The project contains a globally significant large-scale rare earth deposit with a JORC-compliant exploration target ranging from 2.4 to 4.9 billion tonnes.1

Red Metal has engaged three Queensland-based consulting firms—DRA Global, AMDAD, and The Core Group—to conduct the study, focusing on mining and processing methodology design, cost assessment, and optimization.1 The pre-feasibility study will model a base-case throughput of 20 million tonnes of ore annually, with the flexibility to scale operations down to 10 million tonnes or up to 25 million tonnes per year.1 The company anticipates results from the study by the end of this year or early next year.1
