Bekisopa is Akora's 100%-owned flagship iron-ore development in south-central Madagascar. A March 2025 PFS defined a conventional shallow open-pit Stage 1 DSO mine producing two million tonnes per year of average 61.6% iron lump and fines for an initial six years. Madagascar granted mining permit PE 10430 for an initial 25-year term in March 2026. The current weathered Mineral Resource and Probable Ore Reserve support the Stage 1 plan. A separate 194.7-million-tonne fresh-rock magnetite Inferred Resource grading 32.0% iron can produce a 67.6% iron concentrate in test work and underpins longer-term high-grade concentrate potential.
