Following this update, the company will take a significant step forward by initiating a scoping study to provide a high-level economic valuation of the project, setting the stage for further development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe company has been busy positioning itself for the first steps towards mining at Coglia via the commencement of a scoping study, with the aim of putting a dollar value on one of the largest nickel-cobalt laterite resources in Western Australia,\u201d managing director Daniel Tuffin said.<\/p>\n<p>The 5.5km long Coglia resource of 70.6 million tonnes currently is already one of Western Australia\u2019s top 10 largest JORC-2012 compliant nickel deposits not owned by a major, with significant further exploration upside.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhilst future near-resource drilling will continue, a substantial nickel-cobalt resource has already been identified \u2013 the company has determined that it\u2019s time for a strategic shift towards focusing the project on development in anticipation of future mining activities,\u201d Tuffin explained.<\/p>\n<p>In line with this, Panther has proactively applied for a mining lease to position itself for potential future requirements and a seamless transition towards a pre-feasibility study.<\/p>\n<p>The commitment to project advancement is further underscored by the completion of stage one metallurgical test work.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs part of this transition, the company has proactively undertaken metallurgical test work having already identified the project\u2019s potential for onsite heap leaching,\u201d Tuffin noted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat same company foresight has also led to the application to convert the entire Coglia exploration licence into a mining lease.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year, the company <a href=\"https:\/\/stockhead.com.au\/resources\/panther-proves-coglia-can-deliver-high-nickel-laterite-recoveries\/\">confirmed nickel extraction of 92.6% and cobalt extraction of 73.9%<\/a> from the Coglia project using a high-pressure acid leach (HPAL) process.<\/p>\n<p>Identifying the optimal leaching reagent for heap leaching is a critical step, and Panther has chosen sulphuric acid due to its cost-effectiveness and superior performance in leach tests.<\/p>\n<p>The company has already begun stage-two metallurgical test work to explore various leach testing methods and enhance recovery potential.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cWe expect to have a better understanding of the economic value of the project once the scoping study is complete, at which point we\u2019re confident that the project will quickly advance towards a pre-feasibility study and subsequent ore reserve,\u201d Tuffin said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis rapid progression of the Coglia project from discovery through to development has occurred within just two years of listing the company.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>This story was developed in collaboration with Panther Metals, a Stockhead advertiser at the time of publishing.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>This story does not constitute financial product advice.
