Larvotto Resources Limited is developing the 100%-owned Hillgrove Gold-Antimony-Tungsten Project in New South Wales -- Australia's largest antimony deposit (8th largest globally) and a historic mine site with a fully operational processing plant and 15km of underground development already in place, being fast-tracked from acquisition (Dec 2023) to production in roughly 2.5 years. The Board approved a Final Investment Decision on 31 Jul 2025 (A$140M approved capex), fully funded via a US$105 million Senior Secured Bond and A$60 million equity raise. Commissioning began in early Aug 2026 with first production targeted for end of Aug 2026, positioning Larvotto as a major new Western supplier of antimony -- a critical mineral of increasing strategic importance amid tightening global supply.

Exact permit-grant date not separately confirmed in sources checked this pass, so the FID date is used as a same-period proxy rather than an invented earlier date. · Source

Milestones are recorded only from a company's own dated disclosure. A milestone with no date shown is one we can confirm was reached but for which no date was disclosed — we don't estimate one. "Not yet reached" means exactly that, not that a date is missing. An "Expected" line likewise only ever reflects the company's own guidance (e.g. a study or permit decision targeted for a stated quarter) — most not-yet-reached milestones have none, and that absence means no such guidance has been disclosed, not that one is overdue.
A relative ranking of how closely this company matches the profile of juniors that have actually been acquired — not a probability, and not a reason to buy. Acquisitions are rare: only a few dozen significant deals happen a year across a universe of thousands of juniors, so even a high score here describes a long shot. The strongest signal the underlying research identifies — whether a major already holds a JV, earn-in, or 5–19.9% strategic stake — isn't tracked yet and is absent from this score.
