PROJECT BACKGROUND & HISTORY

The Monjebup Project is located circa 80km north-east of Albany, Western Australia and lies predominantly over private land with efficient road access within and around the Project area.

From a geological standpoint, the Monjebup Project is in the Albany portion of the Albany Fraser Orogen. The Albany Fraser Orogen extends along the southern and south eastern margin of the Archaen Yilgarn Craton and comprises ortho-gneisses, granites and to a lesser degree sedimentary rocks and remnants of mafic dykes and large sheets of metagabbros, as well as mafic granulites.

Historical sampling by Windward Resources in 2015 identified anomalous Ce, La and Y levels. However, sampling was mainly targeted for nickel-copper-gold and REE potential was not considered at the time.

In early 2022, Liontown applied for the Project tenements with the intention to explore for ionic clay rare earth element potential. Early stage field reconnaissance and surface sampling along publicly accessible roads was completed within the Project area. Highly anomalous REE results were subsequently obtained, including up to 969ppm TREO within E70/6043. Please refer to the RMX announcement dated 10 July 2023 for further information on the sampling results.
