Pre-payments for quarterly orders were confirmed by September 30, 2025. Additionally, a Binding Offtake Agreement was signed for the sale of 120,000 tonnes of kaolin products over the first five years of production, targeting the Chinese market.

Promising Technical Progress

Independent test work and value in use analysis conducted by ITC on Great White CRM™ confirmed its potential as a replacement for zircon. The end-use customer validation test work on Great White HRM™ also continued, showing promising results.

Operational Advancements

Andromeda made significant progress in the procurement of long lead items, with all necessary items now in the process of being ordered. This ensures efficient operations in the future.

Corporate Updates

The company announced the appointment of Pascal Alexander-Bossy as the new Chief Financial Officer, who will join the team starting from November 20, 2023. Andromeda also received a $1. 2 million refund from the Australian Taxation Office related to incentives for research and development activities conducted during the 2022 financial year.

Looking Ahead

Andromeda's Managing Director and CEO, Bob Katsiouleris, expressed satisfaction with the quarter's achievements, citing significant progress in building partnerships for The Great White Project's development. He emphasized that the completion of the 2023 DFS allows for the continuation of their funding strategy, enabling the project to move forward towards construction and production as planned.
