Targeting mineral discovery throughout Western Australia
3D Resources Limited (3D Resources) is a minerals explorer targeting high value commodities (gold, copper, lead, zinc and nickel) and “future metals” (platinum, palladium, molybdenum, uranium and rare earth metals) in Western Australia. The Company’s projects are located in the Proterozoic Lamboo Complex of the East Kimberley, the Ashburton region of the Southwest Pilbara, the Paleoproterozoic Glengarry Basin, in the Peak Hill Goldfield and the highly prospective Archaean Cosmo Newbery area, in the Eastern Goldfields.3D Resources represents a high risk – high reward investment with the potential for locating economic mineral deposits within all of these project areas that have received only moderate exploration in the past. One area, the Mt Angelo Porphyry in the east Kimberley, was last explored to any depth in the late 1960s with recorded diamond drill hole intercepts up to 152 m grading 0.54% Cu. This area can now be easily explored using modern deep drilling RC techniques and fully tested for its copper – gold – molybdenum – silver potential.
In addition, the Mt Agnes project in the Ashburton region of the southwest Pilbara, represents copper – gold mineralization occurring within a deformed quartz stockwork associated with magnetite and localised hematite alteration above a granodiorite intrusive. The mineralization represents a potential Iron Oxide Copper Gold (IOCG) deposit and as yet has not been drilled. Documented world class IOCG deposits include Ernest Henry in northwest Queensland, Cadia in eastern NSW and the mighty Olympic Dam deposit in South Australia.
The Company is actively expanding its exploration activities as tenements are being granted. The Company plans to compliment its exploration with innovative techniques such as deep seeking MAGLAG geochemistry as well as spectral identification and mapping of alteration assemblages potentially associated with economic mineralization.
