Exploration Projects

In addition to advancing the Bullabulling Gold Project, Minerals 260’s exploration portfolio contains the following projects.

Moora Copper-Gold-PGE Project

Julimar Mineral Province, Western Australia (100%)

The 100%-owned Moora Project is located ~150 km north-east of Perth and covers a 371km2  landholding in the Julimar Mineral Province (JMP). The area is considered highly prospective for base and precious metals, with previous drilling by Minerals 260 intersecting multiple zones of bedrock mineralisation. 

Minerals 260 has been exploring at the Moora Project for approximately three years and has drilled 448 holes for ~36,000m (311 AC, 113 RC, 13 DD and 11 RC / DD), discovering several new prospects. 

Some of the more significant intersections reported have included: 

  • Mynt – up to 24m @ 1.9% copper and 0.7 g/t gold, and 36m @ 1.0% copper and 0.4g/t gold. 
  • Angepena – up to 43m @ 1.8g/t gold, and 16m @ 2.8 g/t gold. 
  • Dwel – up to 2.7g/t gold, 0.5% copper, 0.08% cobalt and 5.7% zinc. 
  • Acga – up to 0.6 g/t palladium and 0.6% copper.

Ongoing work includes geophysical interpretation, pending assay results, and planning for follow-up drilling.

Aston Lithium, Uranium & Rare Earth Element Project

Gascoyne Province, Western Australia (100%)

Minerals 260’s Aston Project comprises 16 largely contiguous tenements covering 1,750km², located ~850km north of Perth in Western Australia’s Gascoyne Province.

Historically explored for gold, base metals, tungsten, and uranium, the region is now emerging as highly prospective for hard rock lithium (spodumene), rare earth elements (REEs), niobium and uranium.

Mineral’s 260 exploration has defined multiple lithium, tantalum, and rubidium soil anomalies — including a 5km-long lithium trend at Pyramid Hill and confirmed uranium mineralisation at the Jailor Bore Extension Prospect, with rock chips recording uranium (up to 1,095ppm U3O8) and vanadium (up to 518ppm V2O5). 

Ongoing desktop studies are underway to assess strategic exploration pathways, aligned with current market conditions and investor sentiment toward lithium and critical minerals.
