RARE EARTH ELEMENTS (REE)
A New REE Province in Low Sovereign Risk South Australia
SUMMARY
REE are widely associated with copper-gold mineralisation in the Curnamona Craton.
Recovery of a by-product REE mineral concentrate can potentially provide an additional revenue stream for Havilah's copper-gold mining projects.
POTENTIAL REE PRODUCTION AS A
BY-PRODUCT OF COPPER-GOLD MINING
DEFINE POTENTIAL
Assay copper-gold mineralised drill samples for REE to define the areas of highest grade REE. West Kalkaroo is already defined as a high priority area.
RECOVER REE MINERAL CONCENTRATE
Research agreement with UniSA, supported by ADI grant, to recover REE concentrate from oxidised and sulphide copper-gold ores.
MARKETING STUDIES
Seek buyers for the REE concentrate that has a high proportion of the higher value, in demand REE.
SUPPLY CRITICAL REE MINERALS
Establish a reliable REE supply chain to Western processing facilities as by-product of copper-gold mining operations.
APPROVALS
No known adverse social, technical or environmental permitting issues preventing development.
LOGISTICS
Close to railway line and regional mining centre of Broken Hill.
OWNERSHIP
100% ownership of secure mining tenements in low sovereign risk, mining friendly,
South Australia.
REGULATION
World's best mining practice and environmental protection are enforced in
South Australia.
