Sheffield Resources Limited ( (AU:SFX) ) has provided an announcement.
Sheffield Resources has resumed mining and processing operations at the Thunderbird Mineral Sands Mine in Western Australia after repairing its Dry Mining Unit. The operation is run through its 50:50 joint venture, Kimberley Mineral Sands, with China’s Yansteel, which operates its own titanium dioxide processing facility that will consume Thunderbird’s magnetic concentrate under a take-or-pay offtake deal.
The restart restores production at one of the largest and highest-grade mineral sands discoveries of recent decades, which is expected to supply zircon and high-quality ilmenite concentrates to global markets over a multi-decade mine life. The move underpins Sheffield’s growth strategy in mineral sands and reinforces Thunderbird’s role as a long-term, secure feedstock source for downstream partners like Yansteel, while supporting the company’s broader portfolio ambitions including its optioned project in Brazil.
The most recent analyst rating on (AU:SFX) stock is a Sell with a A$0.04 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Sheffield Resources Limited stock, see the AU:SFX Stock Forecast page.
