The Group operates predominantly in only one geographic segment (Australia). During the year, the following segments were in operation: The Nova Operation, the Tropicana Operation and Growth, which comprises Regional Exploration Activities and Project Evaluation. The Nova Operation produces nickel and copper concentrates. Revenue is derived primarily from the sale of these concentrates containing nickel, copper and cobalt to multiple customers. The General Manager of the Nova Operation is responsible for the budgets and expenditure of the Operation. The Nova Operation and exploration properties are owned by the Group's wholly owned subsidiary IGO Nova Pty Ltd. The Tropicana Operation represented the Group's 30% joint venture interest in the Tropicana Gold Mine. AngloGold Ashanti Australia Limited (AngloGold Ashanti) were the manager of the Operation and held the remaining 70% interest. The Tropicana Operation was sold effective 31 May 2021. The Group’s General Manager - Exploration is responsible for budgets and expenditure relating to the Group’s regional exploration, scoping studies and feasibility studies, and the Head of Corporate Development is responsible for budgets and expenditure relating to new business development. The Growth division does not normally derive any income. Should a project generated by the Growth division commence generating income or lead to the construction or acquisition of a mining operation, that operation would then be disaggregated from the Growth division and become reportable in a separate segment.
