Commissioning and production ramp-up at Goondicum successfully continues to advance on schedule. Ilmenite production was 5,238 tonnes in January exceeding our budget forecast. ; Production of our secondary product apatite, of 317 tonnes was below forecast. Apatite sales represent around 15% of forecasted revenue and provides useful margin expansion. Modifications for the apatite circuit are being implemented and management is confident that apatite production will be brought up to budgeted levels over the next few months.</p>

Notable to highlight is that initiation of product offtake is on track. ; The first ilmenite shipment remains scheduled for Q1 CY2019 and ilmenite haulage to the port from the mine has now commenced.</p>

No Lost Time Incidents were recorded during January and the project has been LTI free since the start of construction.</p>

Mark McCauley, Melior&rsquo;s CEO, said, &ldquo;January saw further welcome progress with production rates of over 400 tonnes per day of ilmenite which is getting close to levels of our projected steady state of production. Management remains confident that our clear target for Goondicum to produce 14,000 tonnes of ilmenite and 3,500 tonnes of apatite per month in the second half of CY2019 will be achieved.&rdquo;</p>
