Scaddan Gold and Ree Exploration
Northwest of Esperance Township, Southeast Region, WA
ASSET OVERVIEW
A high-priority regional exploration asset targeting a major Archean crustal boundary.
Following a recently approved expansion, the Scaddan Gold and REE Exploration Project is situated in the Southeast region of Western Australia, northwest of the Esperance township. The expanded exploration tenement covers a commanding position directly along the Ida Fault—a major Archean crustal boundary. This strategic structural corridor features comprehensive strike potential for orogenic gold mineralisation alongside extensive clay and saprolite profiles highly prospective for rare earth elements (REE).

Early Exploration / Systematic Target Definition
PARTNERSHIP
Orelian Resource
PRIMARY TARGET
Orogenic Gold (Au) & Clay-Hosted Rare Earth Elements (REE)
INFRASTRUCTURE
Proximal to the regional logistics networks of the Esperance district
EXTENSIVE REE REGOLITH
The project area features widespread clay and saprolite weathering profiles, introducing a highly prospective, large-scale regolith environment for potential clay-hosted rare earth element exploration.
DRILL-TESTED CORES
Initial reconnaissance testing across a localized 5km zone confirmed primary bedrock fertility, returning encouraging early intercepts of 0.5m @ 3.9g/t Au and 2.1m @ 1.22g/t Au.
CRUSTAL SCALE CORRIDOR
The expanded asset encompasses a substantial 30km of continuous strike along the Ida Fault, a primary Archean crustal boundary that served as a major conduit for regional mineralising fluids.
