YAMARNA PROJECT OVERVIEW
Advanced Mt Venn Cu-Ni-Co Discovery
-
Central deposit has mineralisation defined +1.5km of strike and remains open along strike and at depth
-
Copper dominant zone of the mineralised system
-
Wide, shallow, sulphide lenses amenable to large scale open-pit mining
-
Over 13,700m of drilling completed since discovery in October 2017
-
Drilling has only tested to a maximum depth of 260m below surface
Eastern Mafic Discovery
-
Located 7km from Mt Venn
-
Large intrusive body prospective for Cu-Ni-Co sulphide mineralisation
-
Identified in gravity survey and defined as the nickel rich part of the system
-
Historical drilling has defined the feeder and ‘neck’ of the intrusion as most prospective
-
Airborne EM has identified multiple, strong conductors over a 6km strike length
