Summary
Wildcat Resources Limited has published a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) update for its Tabba Tabba project ahead of the scheduled delivery in Q3 CY2026. The study focuses on the processing of various mineral resources, including tantalum, spodumene, and petalite, across different orebodies such as Leia, Luke, Chewy, Han, and Hutt. The company is working with several expert consultants for various aspects of the DFS, including mine design, metallurgical testwork, and financial modeling. Significant differences from the Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) include updated parameters for mine production, processing methodologies, and resource estimation. The DFS aims to bolster Wildcat's resource base, with updates to the Mineral Resource estimate (MRE) and maiden Ore Reserves for petalite and tantalum. The company is also progressing with exploration at its nearby Bolt Cutter Central project, which is not part of the DFS but shows promising lithium mineralisation.
