- Record heavy mineral concentrate ("HMC") production of 187kt for 1H 2021 compared to 167kt for 1H 2020. Strong HMC production in the March quarter ("Q1") of 85kt was followed by record HMC production in Q2 of 102kt.

- A lower average HMC realised sales price of A $480 per tonne for 1H 2021 compared to A $642 per tonne for 1H 2020 was mainly due to lower average zircon grades in HMC and a stronger A$ versus US$.
