Legend

The Georgina and McArthur Basins host to Legend's phosphate projects, are amongst the largest undeveloped phosphate deposits in the world.

Legend has historically defined phosphate deposits of more than 1 billion tonnes at 16% P2O5 (Note 1 - see resources statement and Queensland Minerals - Summary of Major Mineral Resources, Mines and Projects as published by the Queensland Department of Mines and Energy).

Past feasibility studies, conducted by BH South Ltd (later acquired by WMC then BHP), at the Paradise deposit (previously known as Lady Annie project) in 1974 demonstrated that the project was technically and economically feasible.

The adjacent D Tree deposit also had positive feasibility studies conducted by IMC Corporation (later acquired by Mosaic) in the early 1970's.

In 1973 a pilot plant was built at Paradise produced international quality phosphate rock. The pilot plant operated for 1 year at 100 tonne/day, producing high quality beneficiated phosphate rock averaging 34% P2O5.

In conjunction with GHD, Legend is currently replicating the feasibility study conducted in 1974 using current economic parameters.

Legend is developing a 5 million tonne/year phosphate rock mine; on site beneficiation plant; and Road/Rail transport options to the Port of Townsville.
