Executive Summary

  • High Tide Resources shipped ~5.6 t of coarse reject drill core from its 2022 Labrador West Iron Ore drilling campaign to German specialist SGA for direct‑reduction (DR) pellet beneficiation testing.
  • The test program will evaluate iron recovery, impurity reduction, and performance of DR‑grade pellets in both conventional DRI processes and next‑generation green‑iron routes using hydrogen.
  • Results are intended to feed into the forthcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), supporting accelerated project advancement.

Key Details

  • Sample Shipment: ~5.6 tonnes of coarse reject drill core sent to Studiengesellschaft für Eisenerzaufbereitung GmbH & Co. KG (SGA) in Germany for metallurgical testwork.
  • Test Objectives:
  • Produce a Direct‑Reduction (DR) grade pellet product.
  • Maximize iron recovery while lowering deleterious elements to steel‑producer specifications.
  • Validate pellet performance in the DRI process and in hydrogen‑based “green” iron processes.
  • Planned Test Workflows: Crushing & grinding, magnetic separation, gravity separation, froth flotation; followed by pilot‑scale pelletizing and DR/DRI testing.
  • Project Context: Labrador West Iron Project hosts a NI 43‑101 inferred resource of 655 Mt @ 28.84 % Fe (99 mineral claims, 2,475 ha). To date ~7,500 m core from 27 holes drilled (2020 & 2022 campaigns).
  • Strategic Importance: Results will be a critical input to the upcoming PEA, influencing feasibility and potential financing/partnering decisions.
  • Quote: Steve Roebuck, Director & CEO – “This represents an important milestone… The results from this testwork will form a critical input to the upcoming PEA, paving the way for swift project advancement.”

Notable Quotes
