[BCI Minerals 2023 Annual Report]() (executive management team) ## Contributions and company outcomes ### ACCIONA reported a safe, timely module move under his project-director role [deighton_rockingham] 24 June 2021 · issuer reported · medium materiality ACCIONA identified Deighton as Project Director on East Rockingham during the June 2021 transport of large preassembled boiler modules. Its account says the move was completed safely and in a timely manner. This documents a project milestone during his role, not sole contribution or final plant economics. **Attribution:** Role overlaps event; causation unproven. His project-director role overlapped the milestone, but ACCIONA does not assign exclusive personal responsibility. **Relevance:** A relevant example of complex-project execution, with limited outcome breadth. [The Big Move at Rockingham]() (24 June 2021 project update); [BCI Minerals 2023 Annual Report]() (executive management team) ### Mardie construction progressed to 90% while he led the project [deighton_mardie_progress] April 2023–September 2026 · issuer reported · high materiality BCI reports Deighton as Project Director from April 2023. Mardie reached 85% construction completion by June 2026 and 90% by September (87% including liner works), with construction cost to date A$1.265bn and A$178m estimated cost to complete. These are issuer-reported progress figures; first shipment is pending. **Attribution:** Role overlaps event; causation unproven. Project oversight overlaps the reported construction progress; the reports do not isolate Deighton's personal contribution. **Relevance:** Relevant delivery evidence, tempered by remaining work and first-shipment timing. [BCI Minerals FY26 Annual Report]() (pp.24–25); [September 2026 Quarterly Activities Report]() (pp.1–4) ## Business failures and setbacks ### First shipment target shifted from December 2026 to calendar 2027 [deighton_schedule] 2025 target to 20 October 2026 · issuer reported · high materiality BCI previously targeted First Salt on Ship by the quarter ending 31 December 2026; its October 2026 quarterly described a CY2027 pathway, subject to weather and evaporation. The schedule change is relevant to the project director's remit but does not establish personal fault. **Attribution:** Role overlaps event; causation unproven. Role overlaps schedule management; BCI cites natural evaporation/weather and no individual causal finding. **Relevance:** Material measure of project delivery risk before commercial shipment. [BCI Minerals FY25 Annual Report]() (Mardie Salt project schedule); [September 2026 Quarterly Activities Report]() (pp.1–4) ## Suitability for the current role ### Long project-delivery background matches Mardie's construction phase [deighton_fit] Career through cutoff · analyst inference · medium materiality BCI reports more than 25 years in construction, engineering and project management, including ACCIONA, Primero and Mineral Resources roles. The ACCIONA source documents one project milestone. Independent review of broader project budgets, safety outcomes and completion performance remains incomplete. **Attribution:** Responsibility not applicable. Experience is supported by issuer profiles and one employer project report; broader measurable individual outcomes are not established. **Relevance:** Strongly relevant delivery background; the Mardie schedule and transition to production remain the practical test. [Leadership]() (Tim Deighton biography); [BCI Minerals 2023 Annual Report]() (executive management team); [The Big Move at Rockingham]() (24 June 2021 project update) ## Evidence gaps - The exact BCI commencement day and dates for ACCIONA, Primero and Mineral Resources roles are not established; the selected roster's 1 April 2023 date is unverified. - No independent project-cost, safety, schedule or return series attributes Mardie performance to Deighton; first commercial shipment remains pending. - No comprehensive prior-employer litigation, safety or environmental review was completed.
