global gold prices<\/a>. <\/p>\n\nThe Glencore agreement completes a key component of Larvotto\u2019s marketing strategy. Earlier, the company secured an offtake arrangement with Wogen Resources for antimony concentrate. With both major products from Hillgrove now covered by long-term sales agreements, the project\u2019s commercial foundation has been significantly strengthened. <\/p>\n\n
Hillgrove continues to demonstrate additional growth potential. Last year, metallurgical testing achieved 90% tungsten recovery while increasing feed grades by a factor of sixteen. The results indicate that commercial tungsten concentrate could be produced using relatively simple and cost-effective processing methods. Heeks confirmed that testing is continuing and that discussions regarding future tungsten concentrate sales will begin as the project advances. <\/p>\n\n
The first production from Hillgrove remains on schedule and within budget. Commissioning of the operation is planned for August this year. Larvotto shares were unchanged in Tuesday trading. The company currently has a market capitalization of A$690.3 million, equivalent to approximately US$485 million. <\/p>\n\n
The partnership with Glencore provides Larvotto with a solid foundation as it prepares to begin production. Securing a guaranteed sales outlet for seven years reduces commercial risk and allows management to focus on delivering the project on time. <\/p>\n\n
