Scully mine produces product with a concentrate grade as set out in the initial feasibility study at 65.9% Fe, a level that exceeds the specifications of both the industry’s standard 62% benchmark as well as the industry’s high grade 65% benchmark, with respect to both grade and quality.
Tacora has an agreement with Cargill, who purchases 100% of the high-grade iron ore concentrate produced by the Scully Mine and Cargill has rolling options to extend this agreement over the life of the Scully Mine.
