Stock of the Day – Sirius Resources (SIR)
Sirius Resources has released the Definitive Feasibility Study for the 100% owned Nova Nickel Project. The DFS reaffirms that Nova represents a compelling project development with low technical risk that remains robust even under bearish commodity price assumptions and ignoring potential exploration upside near mine and within the region. On current timing Sirius expects to have the native title agreement finalized in the coming weeks for the grant of the mining license in August 2014.

The proposed 1.5Mtpa plant is expected to generate production of 26Ktpa nickel, 11.5Ktpa copper and 850tpa cobalt for separate saleable nickel and copper concentrates over an intial mine life of 10 years. Production levels of nickel have come down slightly from 28Ktpa forecast in the scoping study which is a reflection of an adjusted mine schedule with production tailing off near the end of mine life.

The updated sustaining capex of A$127m, included forecast closure costs of A$25m which when removed is in line with the scoping number of A$104m. We gave the BUY on Sirius at a price of $2.51on 26/03/2014 under
KRR - 110. At the current price of $3.95 it represents a gain of 57.37% and a premium to our valuation. We put a SELL recommendation at the current price of $3.95.
