The Lefroy Exploration organization has confirmed the start of gold production at the Lucky Strike mine, a breakthrough that marks the transition from pure exploration to the active generation of economic resources. This operational success is based on an acquisition and discovery strategy executed with precision since 2016.
Operational and logistics development for gold production
Following extraction carried out in collaboration with BML Ventures, the high-grade ore has been processed through a contract milling system. The first gold bars have been transported to the Perth Mint refinery for final commercialization.
This process validates the technical viability of the deposits that make up the Lefroy Project, which covers a contiguous 635 km² expanse of highly prospective land.
Furthermore, the company manages a diversified portfolio exceeding 1.1 million ounces of gold, complemented by 58,000 tonnes of copper and 14,780 tonnes of contained nickel.
Strategic management of nickel and critical metal assets
The integration of Location 45 and the Burns deposit strengthens the firm’s presence in the region, allowing for a steady expansion of its asset base. The combination of precious and base metals provides strategic resilience against international market fluctuations.
In addition to its gold achievements, the company maintains control over highly significant nickel deposits such as Goodyear and Carnilya South. The Lake Johnston and Glenayle projects ensure long-term exposure to the critical metals sector.
Management will continue with technical evaluation programs to increase the value of these properties while capitalizing on current production at Lucky Strike and Red Dale.
