INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS

Gippsland Critical Minerals is a future focused company that is seeking to develop a critical minerals site in the Gippsland region of Victoria. These minerals will help Australia develop an independent source of the materials needed for manufacturing many things including renewable energy infrastructure, electric vehicles, and aerospace technology. As Australia transitions into a future powered by renewable energy, these minerals, and by extension the Gippsland Critical Minerals Project become extremely important.

As part of the focus on caring for the environment, the operation itself would be minimally invasive, and the company is going above and beyond to protect and rehabilitate the landscape in question. Doing everything possible to ensure a better future for people and the environment are key values of Gippsland Critical Minerals.

The deposit was discovered in 2004 by Rio Tinto and has the potential to be high margin operation (1st quartile on the industry revenue-to-cost curve) and is currently ranked by the leading industry consultant as the best zircon project on an inducement pricing basis, driven by the zircon rich mineral assemblage. The project is expected to create 400 jobs during construction and ~300 direct jobs over the life of the project and deliver significant economic benefits for the region.

Appian is partnering with an experienced management team and shareholders who have an excellent track record of asset development in the critical minerals sector. Gippsland Critical Minerals is currently progressing through an Environmental Effects Statement process in parallel to key technical workstreams including a Definitive Feasibility Study.
