Highlights
• The Property comprises a 14,700 ha granted exploration licence, 320km northeast of Wiluna, Western Australia.
• Soil sampling and an airborne geophysical survey of the Property has identified several drill-ready targets for base and battery metal mineralization - copper, nickel, cobalt, PGEs and zinc - characterized by the coincidence of geochemical anomalies with high priority VTEM conductors.
• The Corporation intends to commence an initial drill program in the current quarter, subject to all relevant Authorities and Stakeholder approval.
• Major mining companies - Fortescue Metals and Rio Tinto - are significant property holders adjacent to or near the Oldham Range Property. In addition, Rumble Resources Limited (ASX: RTR, Market capitalisation of approx. AUD$300m) has announced in April 2021 a new major zinc-lead- silver discovery in 2 areas approx. 110km north of Wiluna, Western Australia. This discovery is some 120 km from the Property. A large 30,000 metre drill program is underway by RTR.
• The Corporation can earn a 100% interest in the Property by AUD $300,000 expenditure based on an agreed budget on or before 31 December 2021. Following the minimum expenditure being met, MYR will have an exclusive right to acquire the Property at any time subject to:
1. Issuing 2,000,000 MYR shares;
