Project Overview

  • Very large total ground holding, contains multiple mining centres:

  • Siberia

  • Davyhurst (LOI)

  • Callion

  • Waihi

  • Mulline/Riverina

  • Mt Ida

  • Each centre hosts multiple o/p and u/g opportunities (Mt Ida u/g only)

  • Near term production ounces sourced from Davyhurst, Siberia and Callion

  • Aggregation of 5 former stand alone Projects
