Western Australian Projects Overview

Waite Kauri Project

The project area hosts a sub to outcropping sequence of intermediate volcanics, with interlayered mafic and ultramafic units that are partially covered by alluvium/ colluvium. This is an excellent geological environment to host both nickel oxide & nickel sulphide mineralisation. The tenements directly adjoin GME Resouces Limited's Waite Kauri nickel oxide discovery, and the indications are that the mineralisation runs directly into Birimian Gold's Project area.

Randwick Project

The Randwick project lies 40kms to the north east of Leonora, and is on the northern strike extensions of the structure that hosts the Randwick-Anglo Saxon gold workings and surround these workings to both the west and north. This corridor hosts high grade gold mineralisation and strikes into Birimian Gold's project area.

Leonora East Project

The project area covers an extensive strike length of prospective stratigraphy with known gold and base metals occurrences. In addition the geological environment is not dissimilar to that 50kms along strike to the north, where the Jaguar-Teutonic Bore copper-zinc-silver deposits are found – exploration for these types of deposit has been limited to date. Prospective gold and base metals targets have been identified for drilling.

Apollo Hill Project

The Apollo Hill project is located 46kms to the south east of Leonora, adjacent to Kookynie Terrane. The tenement also lies adjacent and along strike from the Apollo Hill-Porkies resources, which reportedly contain a substantial non-JORC compliant resource.

Erlistoun Project

The Erlistoun project is located on the Duketon Greenstone belt, 67kms to the north of Laverton. The Project is prospective for both gold and nickel mineralisation. A database of the previous exploration is currently being compiled from the historical reports and will be utilized to further evaluate the tenement areas and to allow the targeting of future exploration. The data indicates the potential for a significant shallow gold resource, based on the initial evaluation of the historical data. The 'Erlistoun Line' is a series of historical gold mines that include the Erlistoun Queen, Battler & Caledonia. These mines were operated at various times between 1900 and 1955 and were of particularly high grade, over 30 gpt Au. The presence of this tenor of mineralisation provides strong encouragement for continued exploration; the Caledonia workings are located within the western half of M 38/561.

Little Doris Project

The Little Doris project is located on the Duketon Greenstone belt, 56kms to the north of Laverton. The tenements overlie a sequence of prospective greenstones that include amphibolite facies ultramafic, mafic and felsic volcanic stratigraphy and lie on the eastern side of the Mt. Varden Transfer, a region fault structure. The tenements also contain the historical 'Little Doris' workings. The 'Little Doris' mine was in production between 1898 and 1907 and was of particularly high grade, over 42 gpt Au. The presence of this tenor of mineralisation provides strong encouragement for continued exploration, especially for repetitions or extensions to the historical system.

Wandry Well Project

The Wandry Well project is located is 76kms to the south east of Leonora, 4kms to the north-west of the historical gold mining centre of Yerilla. The tenements overlie a partially covered sequence of ultramafic, basaltic and volcanoclastic greenstones on the western margin of the southern Leonora Greenstone Belt. Exploration in the 1960s & 1970s focused on nickel mineralisation and included some drilling by both Cominco Exploration & Australian Selection. Exploration since the 1980s has concentrated on gold mineralisation, with groups such as Great Central Mines and CRA Exploration only having undertaken limited surface sampling and drilling. The project is prospective for both gold and nickel mineralisation.
