Everlast Minerals Ltd has completed its second export of mineral sands concentrate from the Gaibandha Mineral Sands Project in Bangladesh, dispatching approximately 18 tonnes of zircon concentrate to China.

The shipment has arrived safely at a Chinese port, following the company’s maiden export of roughly 109 tonnes of mineral sands concentrate in June 2026. While the initial cargo established the baseline export route, this latest delivery of zircon concentrate demonstrates the company’s capacity to supply a higher-value product as processing capabilities expand.

"The completion of our second export is another important step forward and demonstrates that the production and export pathway we established through our maiden shipment can be repeated."

— Paul Qian, Executive Chairman

The operational milestones build upon foundational infrastructure work at Gaibandha, which previously achieved a key power milestone in October 2025 with the connection of a 500kW electricity line to support trial production and future plant expansion.

The project also recently hosted Bangladesh Ministry of Science and Technology Secretary Anowar Hossain, who inspected active mining operations and development work alongside local teams to observe the progress of the country's emerging mineral sands sector.

Everlast is advancing the installation and commissioning of new mineral sands processing equipment at the site as it works toward larger-scale, consistent production volumes.
