IRON RIDGE Project Geology

  • Multiple mineralised lenses dipping around 80º to the south east

  • Significant intercepts of high grade mineralisation

  • In the Main BIF unit, grade averages 62% Fe near surface and increases to well in excess of 65% Fe at depth

  • Enrichment of BIF occurring through 2 distinct hypogene alteration events replacing Silica-rich/Iron-poor bands with Fe oxide rich bands

  • Supergene Goethite-hematite ore zones controlled by brittle faults intersecting the enriched ore zones

IRON RIDGE Capex and Opex Considerations

CAPEX requirement is expected to be modest due to:

  1. No additional port infrastructure required as Geraldton Port currently has abundant surplus capacity for ore storage and ship loading

  2. Existing road used by Crossland Resources/Murchison Metals to haul iron ore from its Jack Hills project (20062011) passes within 15km of Iron Ridge

  3. High grade product needs only minimal processing and no tailings disposal facility OPEX likely to be majority related to transport and logistics, such as :

  4. Road transport some 490km to Geraldton Port

  5. Port storage and handling fees
