Avalon Project

  • 5 granted tenements covering approximately 43.4km2 in Bulong, near Kalgoorlie, WA.
  • Tenement group host to the Bulong Nickel laterite deposits mined historically.
  • Bulong initially developed and operated by Resolute Resources using a high temperature acid pressure leaching (HPAL) followed by solvent extraction and electrowinning (SX-EW) process based on reserves of 140Mt of ore.
  • Contained within the Bulong Nickel Operation area with virtually no historical exploration at depth for gold since the 1990s.
  • Gold exploration recommenced in 2013 though no drilling was included.
  • Short-term strategy is to undertake extensional RC drilling at the more advanced prospects to develop Mineral Resources with the view to develop near-term production.
