Buxton Resources Ltd (ASX:BUX) updates its shareholders that the company has entered into a Farm-In and Joint Venture (JV) Agreement with ASX listed Trek Metals Ltd (ASX:TKM) for the presently 100% Buxton owned Centurion Project (E80/5579), located in the Great Sandy Desert Locality Western Australia.
Buxton was granted E80/5579 in November 2021. This license is located in the Great Sandy Desert on unclaimed crown land approximately 400 km south of Halls Creek, Western Australia (Figure 1).

This license covers a prominent dipolar magnetic anomaly exceeding 1,500 nanoteslas in amplitude and 3,500 m by 5,000 m in extent (Figure 2). Results from an airborne gravity gradiometer survey reveal a similarly dipolar gravity high in a slightly offset position to the magnetic feature - a characteristic pattern observed in Iron Oxide Copper Gold (IOCG) deposits including Olympic Dam and Prominent Hill. An historical hole by CRA failed to penetrate the Canning Basin cover but did intersect clasts of altered intrusives and geochemical anomalism consistent with local derivation from an IOCG setting.

Under the Joint Venture terms, Trek will be required to drill test the Centurion IOCG target within 21 months of signing of the JV and shall sole fund $500,000 of expenditure including satisfying a minimum of at least 300 metres of diamond core drilling (Stage 1). On completion of Stage 1, Trek may elect to withdraw from the JV or will have earned a 51% interest in the tenement.
If results from the first drill hole are positive/encouraging TKM will have the ability to elect to proceed to stage 2 where TKM will have earned 51% of Centurion’s project equity and be obliged to spend a further $3 million within 3 years to earn a further 24% taking them to 75% overall project equity and Buxton will be free carried at 25% project equity level until a Decision to Mine milestone is reached where both parties may elect to into a co-contributing JV.
