A polymetallic deposit in the heart of Queensland’s North West Minerals Province is shaping up as a future supplier of high-grade lead-silver and copper-gold concentrates, with resource confidence, metallurgy, and mine planning advancing in lockstep.
A new bulk-tonnage gold project in Western Australia is shaping up as a standout case study in low-cost development and practical innovation, as it advances toward full-scale heap leach production with big rigs, tight metallurgy, and a streamlined cost base.
It might not sound like a futuristic mineral play: scrape up some wet lakebed mud, truck it to Fremantle, and fire up a shed full of pipes and valves.
With a bold reframe of its flagship project and a new managing director en route, Investigator Resources is drawing a sharper line under its development credentials.
Rox Resources isn’t just talking about going into development at its high-grade Youanmi Gold Project in WA’s Mid West — it’s doing it.
In a decisive move that rewrote its approach to underground ground support, Tomingley Gold Operations has phased out twin-strand cable bolts in favour of Falcon Bolts—an innovative self-drilling, mechanically anchored system developed by Jennmar Australia.
“You’re so vein, I’m so vein, we’re all so vein,” quipped Dale Sims as he opened his presentation at the AusIMM Mineral Resource Estimation Conference ‘MREC 2025’ in Perth.
Amid mounting global uncertainty, shifting trade policy, and resource nationalism, a clear signal has emerged from the Q1 2025 State of the Market webinar hosted by S&P Global Commodity Insights: gold has not only reclaimed its throne as a safe-haven asset but is doing so with a cleaner footprint.
At the 2025 AusIMM Mineral Resource Estimation Conference in Perth, geologist Jordan McDivitt delivered a sharp, technically grounded presentation on how machine learning and structural geology can work hand in hand to model complexity in orogenic gold systems.
A recent ammonia leak at a Western Australian manufacturing site has brought renewed attention to emergency release systems and operator response protocols after a shear coupling failed during a routine loading operation—triggering a toxic release that could have resulted in serious harm.
