REVIEW OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT EVENTS
KAMBALDA LANDHOLDINGS
The Company's key assets consist of strategic landholdings in the Kambalda District of Western Australia, a major nickel and gold producing area with significantly developed mining infrastructure.
KAMBALDA NICKEL OPERATIONS (100%)
In September 2020, the Board made a Final Investment Decision ("FID") for the development of the Company's Kambalda Nickel Operations ("KNO") integrated nickel restart plan based on the Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS") completed in March 2020. KNO comprises the Cassini and Northern Operations. The FID was made following the receipt of a credit approved term sheet for A$55 million from two Tier-1 international banks, BNP Paribas and Société Générale. In November 2020, the Company commenced development at both operations.
COVID-19
Mincor took proactive steps during the financial year to address the risks arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and activated Government measures to prevent the virus' spread. Company policies and procedures were outlined to all staff and contractors, and hygiene and social distancing protocols implemented.
The Company's workforce is largely based in Western Australia, reducing the impact of interstate border closures and enabling Mincor to effectively maintain business operations throughout the reporting period. No staff members or contractors have been diagnosed with COVID-19. There were minor disruptions to operations throughout the year, and more recently in June 2021 when the Western Australian Government imposed restrictions on the Perth and Peel regions which impacted flights to and from Kalgoorlie. Mincor, Pit N Portal and Webdrill employees worked longer rosters during the lockdown period to cover operational requirements.
The Company will continue to monitor any future developments associated with COVID-19 to identify and manage risks that may arise.
Heritage
During the year, Mincor and its mining contractor Pit N Portal continued discussions with the Ngadju Native Title Aboriginal Corporation to formally lay the foundations for how the parties can cooperate and work together on Indigenous employment and training programs. The Ngadju Body Corporate has nominated the committee members for the Mining Operations Implementation Committee with the first meeting held in July 2021.
Safety and Environment
There were no lost-time incidents ("LTI") during the year. At 30 June 2021, the LTI frequency rate was zero and the 12-month moving average Total Reportable Injury Frequency Rate was 9.2.
During the year, the Company implemented safety management systems at all operations. Several safety processes and controls were the focus for the start-up of mining operations, including a Whole-of-Mine Risk Assessment, the implementation of Safe Systems of Work, Emergency Management Preparedness Workforce Training and the establishment of Mines Rescue Teams.
