I would now like to hand the conference over to Natalie Chapman, Corporate Communications Manager. Please go ahead. Hello, everyone. Thank you for joining our call today. Some housekeeping items to note. The accompanying presentation for today's call is available for download from the company's website at alkres.com. Today's press release, the financial statements, and the MD&A are all posted on our website and SEDAR+. For those on the webcast, please move through the presentation slides yourself as directed by our presenters. Moving on to slide two. I'll remind everyone that this conference call contains forward-looking information that is based on the company's current expectations, estimates, and beliefs, and may also use terms that are non-IFRS performance measures. Please review Alkane's quarter three fiscal year 2026 disclosure materials for the risks associated with this forward-looking information and the use of non-IFRS performance measures. Please note that all dollar amounts mentioned on today's call are in Australian dollars unless otherwise stated. As management reviews the results, please remember that Alkane has a June 30th fiscal year-end. The quarter ending March 31st, 2026 is the third quarter of our 2026 fiscal year. As we close the merger with Mandalay Resources on August 5th, 2025, our group financial and operating results for quarter three 2026 shown today only include eight months from the Costerfield and Björkdal mines of former Mandalay operations and a complete nine months of results from Tomingley. Please move on to slide three. Today's speakers from Alkane Resources are Nic Earner, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, and James Carter, Chief Financial Officer. I will now hand the call over to Nic Earner. Please go ahead, Nic. Thanks, everyone, for joining us today. Let's jump right into slide four, which tells a pretty clear story. We've just delivered another record-breaking quarter across the board, and this is both operationally and financially. All three of our mines are operating really well. On a consolidated basis, we produced a record 45,800 gold equivalent ounces in the quarter. This is about 5% higher than in quarter two. For the first nine months of our fiscal year, we produced 120,000 gold equivalent ounces. This is well on our way to meeting our full-year guidance of 155,000-168,000 gold equivalent ounces. Remembering, as Nat said, that this doesn't include July's production from Costerfield and Björkdal. Given the strong prices for gold and antimony in our robust production results, our mines generated AUD 189 million in operating cash flow in the quarter. This is a bit over 40% higher than in quarter two. At quarter-end, we had AUD 374 million in cash, bullion and liquid investments on hand. We continue to build our financial position clearly to aggressively grow the company through both exploration and capital at each of our mines and advance the Boda-Kaiser copper-gold porphyry project. As I've discussed previously, we're simultaneously seeking M&A to opportunistically grow the company. Another accomplishment I'd like to point out, which we're pretty proud of, which occurred subsequent to quarter-end, Alkane was included in the S&P/ASX 200 index on April 22nd. We expect this to, in time, result in a further increase in stock liquidity and potentially reduce volatility as a greater number of investment funds can now own Alkane in their respective portfolios. Let me move on to slide five. On a consolidated basis in Q3, Alkane mined more than 620,000 oz of ore at an average gold grade of 2.33 grams per ton, an average antimony grade of 1.12%. Recoveries of 91.4% gold and 85.9% antimony remain fairly consistent quarter-over-quarter. As a result, our mines produced nearly 46,000 gold equivalent ounces, consisting of nearly 45,000 oz of gold and 377 tons of antimony, which again is a record for the company. I'll get into specifics on each mine shortly. Needless to say, all of our mines are operating well, and we remain on track to meet fiscal 2026 guidance. Moving on to slide six at Tomingley. In quarter three, we produced 315,000 tons of ore, which is just a touch less, 1% less than quarter two on an average recovery rate of 90.1% with an average grade of 2.4 g per ton of gold. This results in production of 21,652 oz of gold, which is a touch lower than in Q2. Processing continues to perform well and milling's exceeding plan. This is primarily as a result of an insertion of a mobile crusher to pre-crush material prior to entering the processing circuit. This pre-crushing material, we've tried different sizes prior to entering the circuit, continues. It's seen an increase in milling rates to about 1.3 million tons per annum. Further optimization to balance our throughput and the cost that occurs in this mobile crusher continues. The primary source of ore continues to be from the Roswell deposit. Underground ore was slightly below what we would have liked, primarily due to stope performance issues on several stopes that required rework. This was offset slightly by higher development ore tonnages. Capital expenditure during the quarter was allocated primarily for our Newell Highway Realignment project. Construction of this is expected to complete in Q2 FY 2027, so the end of this calendar year, 2026. By accessing the high-grade San Antonio deposits via two new open cuts, this high-return project will accelerate Tomingley's growth and further optimize our cost profile. All-in sustaining costs at Tomingley in quarter three were AUD 2,444 per ounce, about 10% higher than we had in Q2. The high costs were a result of higher processing costs, which include the cost of the rental crusher. Which as I said before, this is a high return initiative that's continuing to Q4 and expected to continue going forward. Overall, Tomingley generated AUD 54 million third quarter. Moving on to slide seven. At Costerfield, our gold antimony mine, we processed 36,000 tons of ore. In Q3, gold grades were 10.2 g per ton, in line with Q2, and antimony grades at 1.2%. It was about a third higher than in Q2. Gold and antimony recovery rates were 93.6% and 85.9% respectively, matching the previous quarter. The mine produced 10,584 oz of gold, which is similar to Q2, and 377 tons of antimony, which is 41% more than Q2. I want to stress that antimony grades can be variable throughout the mine and were higher than typically we're seeing in the ore body areas that we're in in Q3. Overall, we remain in our mining plan on our guidance for Costerfield. Costerfield delivered steady state operational performance during the quarter, with ore mining and milling rates exceeded our planned rates. We had strong mining performance in terms of tons mined for the quarter, and our extraction from different areas complied reasonably with forecast mining advance in each area per month. We do, of course, continue to work on our continuous improvement programs. For us at Costerfield, this is a bit of drill and blast optimization, capital development optimization. We continue to work on operator training and our transition to emulsion explosives to improve recovery and reduce dilution continues. Processing, we focus on blending control to maximize throughput, recoveries and re-produced metal. We also here had successful trials during the quarter with respect to pre-crushing ore feed as well and screening the lower grade ore stockpiles to further improve throughput, crusher downtime and blend control. Work continues here to prioritize that operational efficiency. All-in sustaining costs at Costerfield in Q3 were AUD 2,521 per ounce. This is 17% higher than in Q2. This is primarily a result of a one-off Australian dollar inventory adjustment of the run of mine stockpile following the introduction of a new inventory model to match that used at Tomingley. As a result of all of this, Costerfield generated a record AUD 80 million in cash flow. This is a significant increase compared to the AUD 30 million we had in Q2. Moving on to slide eight. In Q3 at Björkdal, we processed more than 320,000 tons of ore, an average grade of 1.5 g per ton and an average recovery rate of 90.4%. Building on this consistent operation, Björkdal produced 12,433 oz of gold, which is up nearly 25% compared to the previous quarter. In general, we allocated resources to capital development activities in preference to operating development. Mine grade was in line with plan grades. We had a slightly higher contribution from below the marble mining area, which traditionally has been a slightly higher-grade area for us rather than above the marble unit. Mill throughput decreased slightly while recoveries improved compared to the previous quarter, albeit not really much more than we would expect in line with increased head grade. Also during this quarter, of interest, we did a trial of processing a parcel of offsite ore from a small mine to the west of Björkdal. This was pretty successful. The goal with this program is to evaluate the option and possibility of sourcing offsite ore to increase production and lower costs at Björkdal. Through this trial, we got an understanding, hey, this ore, it works. It successfully fed into the plant. It's got great recoveries. Further studies of this, negotiations, what permitting things are needed are underway to understand how we can continue this program. During the quarter, there was continued underground capital development success. We achieved more than 1,100 m. This is in line with the previous quarter. We got 1,200 m and we're above plans both for the quarter and year to date. Capital works on a series of lifts at the tailings facility have commenced. We started this once the area there thawed post-winter. Additionally, the development of the Nylands open pit, a small open pit right next to the long-term Björkdal pit that closed many years ago, and an upgrade of the equipment fleet is also continued in quarter three. The higher production allowed all-in sustaining costs in Q3 to be AUD 3,699 per ounce, about 10% lower than in Q2. With this improved production, operating cash flow from Björkdal was AUD 55 million, or over 50% more than the second quarter. One of our key things is to drive organic growth by increased mineral resources, and I'm gonna talk you through the ex-exploration program across our portfolio. Let me start by moving on to slide nine, Tomingley. At Tomingley, one of the interesting things that we did in the quarter was testing a seismic reflector feature quite deep beneath the Roswell deposit, which is bullet point number four on your map there, and near mine prospects such as El Paso, which is bullet point number five. Now at Roswell, this deep drilling intersected gold arsenic-enriched hydrothermal breccias and veining right where we expected it in the seismic reflector. This is 400 m below the current resources. We've got a fair bit of further drilling planned to test whether this structure intersects both the andesite and monzodiorite units. Both of these are favorable hosts at Roswell, and both of them extend down at depth. A pretty interesting area for us to see whether this is an area that has fluids that feeds gold up or into Roswell. At Roswell I mean, sorry, at El Paso, we had eight drill holes completed, and this resulted in us reinterpreting the geological model, allowing us to better understand the geological structure of the El Paso, which we don't really fully understand. A drilling program to test the new model is planned. Meanwhile, underground drilling at Roswell itself in the quarter focused on improving confidence in the inferred resource. We got some great results, like 5.9 m at 31 g per ton of gold, which includes 2.1 m at 78.4 g per ton of gold. Got a different one at 17.4 m grading 4.3 g per ton, which includes 2.5 at 21.1. These are all very typical of what we see at Roswell. Additional underground drilling has commenced to keep and accelerate this infill drilling program. Moving on to slide 10 at Costerfield. We invested just under AUD 7 million, AUD 6.6 million in Q3 to work to expand the resources. As you can see in points one and two on the map on the slide, True Blue drilling continued. We were well advanced this in Q2, and we included step-out testing of surface geochemical anomalies. Targets around the existing workings, which these targets will be incorporated, our results will be incorporated in the plan in the coming year, so into FY 2027, including Kendall, bullet point three, Brunswick South, bullet point four on the slide. At Kendall, 25 individual veins have now been identified and modeled. These are immediately above the currently mined Youle and Shepherd ore bodies. These surround the historically mined from many decades ago, Costerfield deposit. We looked at extension drilling in that area, and this gave us pretty strong results, including amazing results like 1.94 m grading 132 g per ton of gold, so over 4 oz of gold per ton. 19.8% antimony, very high-grade antimony. 2.3 m grading 267.5 g per ton, so over 8 oz per ton of gold and 5.6% antimony. These are clearly ultra-high grade, they're similar to mineralization at the nearby Fosterville mine. These present one of our most exciting prospects. I would not want you to think that I'm saying that we have a massive tonnage here, but they're certainly very, very high grade. At Brunswick, we conducted infill and extension drilling programs with additional drill rigs mobilized to accelerate that program. Up at bullet point six, you can see on the screen, we're also testing for potential of Sunday Creek, the Southern Cross style mineralization just below Costerfield's historic mines. Let's move on to slide seven. At Björkdal, drilling expenditures were just under AUD 3 million during the quarter, as three exploration targets were progressed. Drilling at North Zone, that's bullet point one. This moved from growing to infill, while the eastern extension program targeted the continued depth and the eastward extension of the main and central zones. This is bullet point two. Further to the northeast, most interestingly at Storheden, its growth drilling also continued, as did to the east at Norrberget during the quarter. At Björkdal, we continue to explore for narrow high-grade veins, which we've shown that we can mine these efficiently. Let's move to slide 12. The Northern Molong Porphyry Project, the entirety of which is shown on the map on this slide, is a highly prospective gold corridor. This project also encompasses our Boda-Kaiser copper-gold project, which is in the bottom right of the picture that you're looking at. Exploration on this project for the quarter included our continued inversion and interpretation of the mobile magnetotellurics, or MMT, survey data that was flown in November. Reconnaissance drilling for a total of 4,000 m that commenced through December was completed, and we're interpreting this, and we expect to report them in the coming months. Other low-cost activities to advance the development of Boda-Kaiser gold-copper project in the quarter included the continuation of our environmental baseline studies. We did stakeholder consultations, property negotiations, site selection, infrastructure. These are low-cost but high-impact activities. We think this keeps us well on the path towards a project approval application in late 2027, calendar 2027 or early 2028. We have here the goal of receiving approval to then go on and make an investment decision in late 2029. As you can see, there's a tremendous amount of exploration work going on with each of our projects, all with the goal of expanding resources and driving for new recoveries to increase the mine life, therefore increase production levels and contain and potentially lower the cost. With that, I'll now hand the call over to you, Jim, to provide a review of our financial performance. Thanks, Nic. Hello, everyone who's joined us on the call, wherever you are, wherever you are today. We're on slide 13. I'm going to start with an overview of the key financial highlights for our third quarter of our financial year 2026. I'll be focusing on really just this financial year as the results of the previous year don't include the former Mandalay operations. Group revenue for the quarter, that was a record just over AUD 274 million on sales of about 42,500 oz of gold and 280 tons of antimony at average realized gold price of just over AUD 6,300 per ounce and an average antimony price of about AUD 34,400 per ton. During the quarter, we also delivered about 8,700 oz of into our gold hedge book. That's at an average price of just around AUD 2,855 per ounce. We've got about five quarters remaining of hedged deliveries through to June 2027, which is very, just a very small percentage of our overall forecast production and revenue. All-in sustaining costs on a consolidated basis were just over AUD 2,900 per ounce on a gold equivalent produced basis. A little bit higher than Q2. A little bit of impact there from, you know, the impact that we're seeing across the industry with diesel fuel. Not so much of an issue for us as Alkane, plus just a little bit of more planned sustaining capital around underground capital development and some equipment purchases, which is sort of what we are forecasting to do. EBITDA in the March quarter, that was a record, AUD 161 million, higher than the quarter previously. For the nine months and for the nine months so far this year, we've generated AUD 334 of EBITDA, and that's on an EBITDA margin of just under 50%. Net profit after tax for the March quarter, another record, AUD 93 million after tax, AUD 0.681 per share. On a year to date basis, our net profit after tax is just under AUD 158 million or AUD 0.1244 per share. Sustaining capital during the quarter, AUD 24 million. Largest programs, around AUD 7 million for underground capital development at Björkdal. AUD 9 million for ongoing equipment replacements at Tomingley and Björkdal as well. Just reminding everyone that across our three operations, we do own and operate all our own equipment because that works for us best efficiently and economically. Growth capital was AUD 10 million for quarter, most of that's invested at our Tomingley operation in our Newell Highway realignment, which is for the eventual mining of the San Antonio open pit in 2027. Exploration across the group in the quarter was AUD 13 million. Nic sort of spoke about that across our operations and our Boda-Kaiser project. I'll turn to slide 14 now. We've got the cash waterfall here. In the third quarter, cash flow from our three operations was a record AUD 189 million, 42% higher than the second quarter. Corporate and other expenses, sort of in that bucket of AUD 20 million of cash outflows. We've got corporate and technical support costs. That includes about AUD 3 million on our Boda project and some other regional exploration. AUD 6 million for the Lupin Project in Canada that we're rehabilitating and closing down. AUD 5 million for a net repayment of equipment lease finance. We also received AUD 4 million during the quarter from a non-core divestment of the La Quebrada project in Chile. After sustaining capital expenditures, growth, exploration, taxes, corporate, we ended the quarter with AUD 328 million of cash. Net about AUD 110 million cash growth over that quarter. At the end of the quarter, we've got a really strong, robust financial position. We have access to up to AUD 520 million of liquidity through the cash, bullion and unlisted investments. We also finalized a new AUD 110 million revolving credit facility and AUD 40 million contingent instrument facility during the quarter. Yes, records all around, you know, very strong quarter financially and on the back across the industry having, you know, a very good strong gold price environment. I think it's important for us to highlight that, yes, we all have that benefit and those tailwinds, you know, on the ASX, when we compare, we have industry leading margins during the March quarter as well. I think maybe what on a, on a clear cash generation per ounce sold during the quarter, I think maybe second place out of all the industry producers. You know, more than just a strong gold price, but, you know, priding ourselves on taking advantage of that through strong efficient operations, trying to keep an eye on costs as well. You know, that gives us in a, in a, in a great position to help, you know, internally fund our own organic growth projects and really position ourselves for any anything that might happen opportunistically as well. I think at that stage, I'll turn the call back to you, Nic. Great. Thanks, Jim. Let's move on to slide 15. Let me focus on our outlook. We wanna build on this momentum that we've achieved today throughout fiscal 2026. Leveraging the financial strength that Jim just outlined, we're well-positioned to deliver on our dual-track strategy. Growing production whilst containing costs to maintain overall margins and to increase our cash-generating capabilities. We're pretty firmly on track to achieve the top end of our annual production guidance of 155,000-168,000 gold equivalent ounces. It's worth noting again, sorry, this will end next financial year, but the true scale of our operational footprint, had we included all of the Oakdale and Costerfield production for July 2025, then the full year guidance would climb to the 160,000 - 175,000 gold equivalent ounces, which firmly establishes Alkane as a mid-tier gold producer. On the cost front, we retained discipline. Our consolidated all-in sustaining cost is on track to hit guidance at AUD 2,600-AUD 2,900 per ounce or between, if you're talking US dollars, $1,690-$1,885 per ounce. We do expect to be at the top end of that guidance. We do have a pretty aggressive commitment to organic growth. We're deploying in the vicinity of AUD 80 million in gross capital and exploration to keep unlocking value at our sites. Our primary goal for FY 2026 was to establish Alkane Resources a reliable consistent producer, and I think our performance to date shows that we've done exactly that. Moving on to slide 16. We remain focused on execution and as the numbers show, I hope you all think that we're delivering on that promise. We're positioned to meet our targets both in production and cost. We're deploying the drill bit across our entire portfolio to expand our resource base. This is what we wanna do, the bedrock of our strategy. We want to extend our mine life, we want to accelerate production growth at all three mines. Of course, we have Boda-Kaiser. This is a very serious copper gold porphyry project, remains an important part of our portfolio, and we think it's a key to long-term value creation for all of our shareholders. We're moving purposefully on the environmental studies and permitting to advance the project. In doing so, we give ourselves maximum flexibility to unlock value. Corporately, I think at this time now of the market, our balance sheet is a clear strategic advantage. Given our steady state operation in this pretty robust still gold and antimony price environment, we expect to continue to build our cash position. This allows us to grow from within as well as inorganic growth opportunities. Well, we're pretty well positioned to move quickly. Of course, we will maintain discipline. In closing, we think we're well positioned to drive long-term value for our shareholders and our stakeholders. Thanks, everyone. With that, I'll hand back to the operator to start the Q&A session. Thank you, operator. Thank you. As a reminder, to ask a question, please press star one one on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced.

Once again, please press star one one and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw your question, please press star one one again. We are now going to proceed with our first question. The question's come from the line of Lawrence Retail from Retail Investor. Please ask your question. Good evening in Australia. I'd like to thank the Alkane team for staying up late on a Friday evening. I have several questions, Nic, and I'll start with the first one. When will Alkane disclose the exploration and mining plan for the Nagambie earn-in? Yeah. Lawrence, thank you very much, mate. No problems staying up, but thank you for acknowledging. Nagambie, at the moment, we're compiling exactly what we're looking to do. However, w e've already obtained a drill rig. We're mobilizing that to site. We expect to start drilling in the next couple of weeks. The first drilling we're looking to do is simply to put sort of three, four holes into the existing inferred resource that Nagambie has in order just to firm it up, redo the model, and then start to do targeting. Once we've done that, then we can detail a more detailed program. I would say, mate, probably in reality, about two, three months. Okay. That's great. On the Nagambie presentation, I think it's dated 2023. They mentioned Whroo and Red castle JVs for some of the Nagambie permits, just that are off, I think, kind of northwest and north of the mine. Are those JVs still in progress? As far as I'm aware, and forgive me, I may be a tiny bit inaccurate, but as far as I'm aware, no. The only remaining agreement is with a company called Golden Camel, who has the right to process material. I'm gonna call it the northeast corner of the mine, a very long-standing relationship there. They, of course, need to attract funding and all the other stuff to do that. At this stage, though, most of the work that we're doing will be on that primary tenement package in and around the old mines under the old open cut. If I've stuffed that up, I apologize, mate, but our primary target is in and around that existing mining area. Okay. I'm still trying to figure out the Boda-Kaiser project. I'm trying to understand what the profitability is because it seems to look like a Kinross project where you have high tonnage, low grade. Oh, mate, you're absolutely spot on about that. If we rewind a fair bit to the scoping study that we put out in July 2024. We looked at a 5 million ton, a 10 million ton, and a 20 million ton per annum scenario, way back when gold price was AUD 3,500 per ounce, right? Copper was under what it is today. Gold price now is in Aussie dollars, I'm gonna say AUD 6,400, so another AUD 3,000 per ounce. Copper has gone from being around this AUD 15,000 per ton to nearly AUD 20,000 per ton. You are correct. It is a large, very large, lower-grade deposit, which contains gold and copper in nearly 50/50 value. The overall grade is 0.58 g per ton equivalent. That changes, of course, on gold price. It's comprised of 0.3 g per ton of gold, 0.18% copper. A couple of key things around value. Back then, the IRR was solid, but not, you know, amazing. At current prices, if we did 20 million tons per annum, the IRR on a pre-tax basis is up over 50%. A couple of things that will have changed, of course, since that study. Capital costs will have risen slightly, so we'll redo that as we work through this next year or two. OpEx will no doubt have been influenced. We're all, you know, waiting to see where everything ends up over the next year or two. It's fair to say that prices have moved way more as a percentage, gold and copper prices in, in those terms. You know, if you look at the 20 million ton per annum scenario, it averaged over a 17-year life of mine, it would average the equivalent of being a bit over 200,000-220,000 oz equivalent operation. You know, if you did a 10 million ton per annum, it was a tiny bit higher. It was sort of in the 110-125. What you're seeing is in this price environment, it's a very profitable operation, but you're exactly correct. It needs big tons. The bigger the tons, the better it is. It will start open cut. It will transition to underground in 10-30 years, depending what size processing plant is. Look, mate, I certainly would encourage you to, you know, check out that scoping study. Do you think ore sorting could be used at the Boda-Kaiser project? No. No, sorry, mate. It's not I mean, ore sorting at some of our other prospects, yes, but not this one. It's a really large calc-alkaline porphyry, so no, I don't see we would get an uplift from ore sorting. Yeah. Okay. I think my next question is, I assume that you've heard about the Trump administration's Project Vault. Yes. To talk about it like an expert would be incorrect. Yeah. Yeah. I was wondering if Alkane has had any discussions with the Trump administration with regards to selling antimony into Project Vault? We've had, as many people have, because they've been very thorough around the world. We've had some communication around the selling of concentrate, once they establish that downstream smelting. Yes, there's nothing committed at all. Okay. Well, at least you're having discussions. That's a good news from my point of view. I'm not sure where they are in developing Project Vault. Obviously, they're gonna have to have some strategic warehousing set up across their country, and I don't know if they're at that stage yet. Oh, no worries. Great. Thanks for your questions, Lawrence. Just actually, just one other question. Yeah. Does the communication officer or investor relations officer have a phone number? Yes. If you look on the, if you look on the bottom of any of our announcements on our website, you will see Natalie's contact details there. Yeah. I guess the only other piece of feedback I have, and this has to do with, you know, my neurological PTSD situation, is that could today's presentation be put in the investor presentations webpage, just to make it easier to find? Because I couldn't find the presentation that you were using on the call today. I'm wondering if it could be put into the presentation section prior to having the investor call. Understood. Thank s for the feedback, mate. It's something we'll check out. Okay. Again, thank you for hosting this call late in the evening. I wish you all a wonderful weekend. Thanks, Lawrence. We are now going to proceed with our next question. The question comes from the line of Kevin Tracey from Oberon Asset Management. Please ask your question. Thanks for taking my questions. The first one is on Kendall. Pretty exciting exploration results there you announced in February. You mentioned that Kendall is quite close to your existing infrastructure. Can you talk about the timing of when you could mine material volumes from Kendall? Yeah. You know, how the results- Yeah, yeah. No, yeah, certainly. -impact or change your outlook for the mining plan? Yeah. Yeah, certainly, Kevin. We expect that we'll be mining Kendall over the next 12 months, you know, later in the next 12 months. The nature of Costerfield as a mine is that, you know, we seek to at least replenish the reserves each year. Also, if possible, you know, obviously, we want to expand the reserve further. The high-grade areas of Kendall we'll be developing up towards, and also Brunswick South is a new mining area that we'll be developing towards. I don't see that significantly changing the outlook from sort of this year's production, mate. Certainly it'll be good to get up there and then start to, you know, check it out with some development drives. Okay. At Björkdal, the production number was the best we've seen in a long time. My question really is about the gap between the process grade and the mined grade. Historically, we've seen the process grade be lower than the mined grade as you've supplemented underground ore with stockpile. In the most recent quarter, the process grade was a good deal higher. Is this totally explained by the kind of off-site trial of processing of third-party ore that you talked about or- Yeah. Is it explained by something else? Pretty much. Yeah. Yeah, pretty much, mate. Yeah. The mine that we looked at, obviously because we're tracking it, had a head grade of, I'll just say 6 g per ton. You know, you can understand why we're looking to see if that works for us. There's a whole host of different aspects there. Yeah, that is the main explanation of what to do. We are looking at ore sorting, but no, it's not that. It is all the offsite production. Okay. Are you hopeful that you'll be able to sustain the processing of that ore? Yeah. This grade as sustainable in the quarters ahead? Yeah, totally. No, do not, do not put it into any model that you might have yet. We are hopeful that we can secure some sort of arrangement from that mine or others, but there's a couple of hurdles to overcome. One, negotiating with those parties. Two, also the permitting. Part of the trial was to get, you know, tailing samples and other things to make sure that we would be compliant with any of the environmental conditions we have on-site. We have to test that with the regulator over the coming months to get permission to bring in ore such as this from offsite. Yes, we very much want to pursue it. Yes, we very much want to do deals. Yes, we'll be suing with the regulator, but it's more months than years, but it is still something we need to land, mate. Okay, great. Bigger picture at Björkdal, you have a broader strategy of opening more mining fronts and- Yeah. -you know, filling the mill with more of your underground ore. Can you just update us on, you know, the status of those efforts and, you know, kind of give us a preview of what we should expect in fiscal 2027 in terms of volumes at Björkdal underground? Yeah. We absolutely do have a strategy. There's two-part strategy. Number one is the pit at Nyland, which is just a tiny bit to the east of where that Björkdal open cut was. That's a mine open cut that we've been doing pre-stripping of. At present, it's got a stripping ratio sort of of the order of six or seven to one. We expect to be delivering ore from that at, you know, around sort of this 0.8, 0.9 g per ton, which is higher than the low-grade stockpile later this calendar year, so during the next financial year. That's sort of part one. Part two is the Storheden deposit to the north of the existing mine. We have a mining lease there, we need to get the environmental permit to mine that. We have greenlit already the development towards that. That needs a new cross-cut count going across to it from underground and then a decline. That's probably the better part of three years activity and an update of the environmental permit. They're the two things we're doing. Next year, I expect our production will be similar-ish to this year. I expect our capital costs will rise because we're looking to invest in those two things that I described, but they are all be setting us up for increasing production going forward, you know, ideally the year after year after that. Okay. Thank you very much. Thanks, Kevin. There are no further questions on the phone line. I'll now hand over to Natalie Chapman for the written questions. Thanks very much. We'll start off with, what opportunities does Alkane see in gold and antimony beyond Costerfield? Okay. Outside of our own exploration things that I just described, clearly for us, there's the joint venture with Nagambie in our immediate vicinity. There are some other companies that have gold and antimony deposits more regionally, we'll call it within a 150 km radius. We're only in the very early, you know, let's just have a look at these and consider it top stage, please don't read too much into that. Looking more broadly internationally, I'm sure many of you that know the antimony market will be aware of other projects. At the moment, at the very most, we have a desktop review of some of those. We're not actively pursuing in our M&A and antimony lead on anything. We are looking at gold projects, and some of them do include antimony, but not really. I hope that's answered your question. If it doesn't, please type in another one. Thanks. Are you still conducting a geophysical exploration? Absolutely. We've broadly finished our geophysics at Boda-Kaiser because we've updated those. We've updated gravity, magnetotellurics, and other things for targeting. Down at Costerfield, we are almost finished updating our information density there. We have a structural expert looking at that to assist with our targeting to, you know, extend the mine life. At Tomingley, it's similar. We've done, you know, further survey work there, geophysics. Most of that's finished. We're now engaging structurally, and we're looking at that deep drilling I said to test some of the, you know, seismic work that we've done there. I hope I've answered your question. Thanks. When will Alkane pay its first dividend? It's something we talk about in the board all the time, particularly as we have such strong cash flow generation. We're looking to put together a capital management strategy, you know, buybacks, dividends, et cetera. We expect to announce that, you know, in the second half of this calendar year and the first half of next financial year. People have a pretty clear idea of the sort of ratio of, you know, liquidities and what we intend to do with cash. At the moment, our key thing is to really look at our M&A opportunities and run those to ground. Yeah, we're putting out a capital management policy before the end of this year. We do not expect, at this stage, even though we talk about it each month when we meet as a board, we're not anticipating paying a dividend at the end of this financial year. That may occur, but people should not count on that. How much, if any, of the drop in the all-in sustaining costs at the Oakdale this quarter was down to the trial sample? Would you expect further cost declines there if the outside ore is brought in on a continual basis? Yeah. Absolutely. The costs at the Oakdale are pretty much fixed. You know, they're close to 65%, 70% fixed. It was definitely the per ounce cost base was absolutely influenced by that offsite ore, which is, of course, why we're looking at that and other sources for it. In the event that we do find, and, you know, follow up the, you know, the questions that I gave Kevin around that offsite ore, then yes, I would expect the all-in sustaining cost to come down. That's the whole premise of all the different activities we're trying to do at the Oakdale. Thanks. Congratulations on a strong quarter and the smooth integration. I appreciate you maintaining a strong balance sheet and the investments in exploration and optimization. With 20% of market cap in net cash June year-end, it's building quicker than can be spent. Any thought on maintaining 20% of net cash bullion if you're successful finding an external opportunity? Allocating a portion of incremental free cash flow to opportunistic buybacks at this level of undervaluation. Yeah. The capital management strategy will no doubt incorporate something such as the questionnaire is envisaging. However, we're also very much looking at dividends given we have Australian franking credits as well. Right. What impact does the rising cost of oil have on your operations, particularly those in Australia? Oh, man. Yeah. Obviously topic for all this. To date, given that we are grid powered at all three mine sites and we're underground, not operation, so lower tonnage movements. The oil price itself for diesel fuel has not had that much of an impact. It's fair to say I'm pretty, you know, concerned about all the flow on things. Things like, you know, drill bits with the tungsten as a portion is, you know, the cost of those are rising, the cost of polypipe is rising, the cost of some reagents is rising. I do have some sympathy for our suppliers as it rises and falls. When we ask them, "Okay, we're preparing our budgets for next year, what's this gonna be?" And stuff. To be honest, people can't really tell us that much, right? Directly related to oil, not much. As to where it all settles on the broader, I don't know, I'll just call it supply base of, you know, reagents, explosives, drill steels and other things that transport is affected. I really can't say. Today, we haven't seen that flow through. You know, it to be honest, it does feel like it's going to be inevitable and certainly all the external, you know, commentary I read makes me think that as well. Thanks, Nic. We have no further questions. I'll hand back to you for closing comments. Okay, great. Great. Thanks, Nat. Hey, look, thanks everyone for taking the time to join us today. Look, while we've had a successful financial year so far, we of course look forward to showing more of our progress in the next call in a few months. As always, please reach out should you have any questions. As I said to Lawrence, our first questioner, Natalie's details are on the bottom of all of our announcements. Thank you and good evening to everyone here in Australia. Have a good day everyone in Canada. Thank you. This concludes today's conference call. Thank you all for participating. You may now disconnect your lines. Thank you.
