ASSET OVERVIEW
A high-priority regional exploration asset targeting extensive gold anomalies and heavy rare earth clays.
The Yelup Gold and REE Exploration Project is strategically located approximately 30km east of the major wheatbelt township of Katanning. The project captures a highly prospective geological environment highlighted by widespread gold surface anomalies and significant rare earth element signatures. Recent multi-element geochemical analyses indicate a highly fertile regolith profile, providing a rare opportunity to systematically evaluate a large-scale, dual-commodity system that remains largely untested at depth.

IONIC CLAY REE SIGNATURES
Mobile Metal Ion (MMI) soil analyses yielded highly encouraging results up to 23,800 ppb total REE, characterized by prominent Erbium (Er) fractions. The geochemical signature strongly implies the presence of an enriched, heavy REE ionic clay regolith profile derived from a fertile underlying charnockite suite.
UNTESTED DEPTH EXTENSIONS
Historical shallow fences of vertical aircore and RAB drilling returned encouraging anomalous values of 200 ppb Au and 140 ppb Au. These sparse programs terminated at insufficient depths, leaving primary structures wide open.
EXTENSIVE GOLD STRIKE
The property defines a coherent series of gold-in-soil anomalies extending over a 5km strike length, highlighting an extensive regional footprint with strong bedrock potential.
