About Focus Minerals Limited (ASX: FML)

Focus Minerals is a Perth-based, ASX-listed gold exploration company focused on delivering shareholder value from its 100%-owned Laverton Gold Project and Coolgardie Gold Project, in Western Australia’s Goldfields.

The flagship Laverton Gold Project covers 362km[2] area of highly prospective ground that includes the historic Lancefield and Chatterbox Trend mines. Focus’ priority target is to confirm sufficient gold mineralisation at the Beasley Shear Zone, Lancefield-Wedge Thrust and Karridale to support a Stage 1 production restart at Laverton. In parallel, Focus is working to advance key Laverton resource growth targets including Sickle, Ida-H and Burtville South. Focus is finalising a Pre-Feasibility Study into Stage 1 production.

Focus is also committed to delivering shareholder value from the Coolgardie Gold Project, a 175km[2] tenement holding that includes the 1.4Mtpa processing plant at Three Mile Hill (on care and maintenance), by continuing exploration and value-enhancing activities. An updated PFS in September 2020 highlighted the potential for a low capital cost, fast-tracked return to mining at Coolgardie and delivered an NPV7.5% of $183 million. The Company’s efforts are now focused on increasing production-ready Mineral Resources at Coolgardie.
