Highlights:
- The Orlando deposit now hosts 5.95Mt of resources, showing significant increases in both copper and gold.
- The combined resource for CuFe’s Tennant Creek project stands at 10.35Mt, expanding development options.
- CuFe partners with Emmerson Resources and Tennant Minerals to enhance processing capabilities for copper, gold, and critical metals.
CuFe’s Tennant Creek project, which includes the Orlando deposit, has seen impressive resource growth. The Orlando deposit now hosts 5.95 million tonnes of resources, grading 1.16% copper and 1.5g/t gold. This represents a remarkable increase in both copper and gold grades compared to previous figures. With these results, CuFe’s overall resource at Tennant Creek now totals 10.35 million tonnes. This increase broadens the scope for future developments in the region and provides more options for both immediate and long-term planning.
Collaborations for Development and Processing
CuFe is working closely with its partners Emmerson Resources and Tennant Minerals on a shared facility for processing copper, gold, and other critical metals. This collaborative effort is designed to maximize the value derived from high-grade discoveries in the Tennant Creek region. By combining their resources, these companies aim to enhance operational efficiency and scale, leveraging the newly expanded resource base.
Exploration and Development Plans
The updated resource estimation has been facilitated by expert consultants, allowing for more detailed modeling of the Orlando deposit. With this new data, CuFe is actively exploring both independent project options and collaborative ventures with its partners. The company is focusing on further exploration, including additional drilling and resource auditing for nearby Gecko and Goanna deposits. These activities will provide insights into the broader mineralization potential in the area, supporting more informed decisions on development strategies.
Expansion of Exploration Efforts
Looking ahead, CuFe plans to continue expanding its exploration efforts. Detailed mine planning for the Orlando and other nearby deposits is ongoing, and further drilling campaigns are expected to target additional mineralized zones. The results of these exploration initiatives will help refine CuFe’s understanding of the resource base and contribute to more effective planning and development.
The continued exploration, development, and strategic collaborations mark a significant period of growth for CuFe and the Tennant Creek project. As further assessments and exploration are undertaken, the potential for expanded resources and enhanced processing capabilities grows.
