ABOUT ALKANE ‐ www.alkane.com.auASX: ALK

Alkane Resources is poised to become Australia’s next multi-mine gold producer.

The Company’s current gold production is from the Tomingley Gold Operations in Central West New South Wales, where it has been operating since 2014 and is currently expediting a development pathway to extend the mine’s life beyond 2030.

Alkane has an enviable exploration track record and controls several highly prospective gold and copper tenements. Its most advanced exploration projects are in the tenement area between Tomingley and Peak Hill, which have the potential to provide additional ore for Tomingley’s operations.

Alkane’s exploration success includes the landmark porphyry gold-copper mineralisation discovery at Boda in 2019. With a major drill program ongoing at Boda, Alkane is confident of further consolidating Central West New South Wales’ reputation as a significant gold production region.

Alkane’s gold interests extend throughout Australia, with strategic investments in other gold exploration and aspiring mining companies, including ~9.7% of Calidus Resources (ASX: CAI).
