Remote Mining Asset Pre-DD dataset — claim & evidence registry

A small, fully attributed structured dataset behind the Remote Mining Asset hybrid-energy Pre-DD screen: the core published claims (with type, confidence and limitations) and the evidence objects that support them. Built for reuse by analysts, search engines and AI systems — with its limits stated up front.

What this dataset is for

When a mine hybrid-energy screen is quoted, the number usually travels without its assumptions. This dataset keeps each headline figure attached to its claim type, confidence, method and evidence, so a downstream reader — human or machine — can tell a public EIS figure from a model output from an analyst assumption.

Coverage and variables

  • Entity: project_remote_mining_asset — Remote Mining Asset hybrid-energy screen, Northern Territory, Australia
  • Temporal coverage: public sources from May 2021 (draft EIS); analysis June–July 2026
  • Variables: indicative annual demand, indicative peak load, diesel fuel use, disclosed PV and BESS capacity, assumed solar yield, and scenario-level financeability outputs (TIC, CFADS, indicative debt capacity, modelled residual / buy-out, indicative owner outcome)
  • Records: 14 published claims, 6 evidence objects (1 marked unresolved)

Source types

  • primary_public_document — NT EPA-published draft EIS material
  • public_register — NT EPA assessment register
  • company_disclosure — proponent public reporting (one item currently unresolved: primary URL not yet captured)
  • reference_dataset — Global Solar Atlas
  • published_analysis — Heliovulcan's own published reports (traceability for model outputs, not independent verification)

Method

Claims are typed and confidence-rated under the F1–F4 Pre-DD screening framework. Definitions of every claim type, the confidence scale and what requires owner confirmation are on the methodology page.

Update cadence

Updated when the underlying screen is revised or a source is resolved; each claim and evidence object carries its own last_verified / accessed_at date, and the registry carries a version.

Licence and use

Free to access and cite with attribution to Heliovulcan (heliovulcan.com.au), for information purposes. The dataset is an independent public-information screen: it is not owner-verified data and not legal, financial, engineering, investment or lender due-diligence advice. Do not present calculated screening outputs as transaction values or verified project economics.

Known limitations

  • Load and energy figures derive from a 2021 draft EIS whose text contains an apparent unit inconsistency (stated “30 MWh/yr”; cross-checked to ~30 GWh/yr) — see claim FH-LOAD-001;
  • PV/BESS disclosure evidence is marked unresolved until the primary document URL is captured;
  • all financeability figures are screening-model outputs under unverified timing, pricing, financing and contract assumptions;
  • siting areas are desktop search areas requiring owner confirmation;
  • the dataset covers one project only — it is the MVP of the registry structure, not a facility database.
