Exploration Permit for Minerals (EPM) – Central Queensland, Australia.
The Mount Britton Gold Project is our latest acquisition in Queensland’s legendary gold-producing region, located near the historic township of Mount Britton. Located about 35 minutes north-east of Nebo, this Exploration Permit for Minerals (EPM) covers a highly prospective area with a long-standing reputation for rich alluvial gold and high-grade quartz reef systems. 

Strategic Location with Proven Gold Potential
Mount Britton was a major gold field during the 1880s and remains one of Queensland’s most historically productive regions. Our tenement spans [N/A] hectares, encompassing both historic workings and underexplored terrain. Situated within the Connors Arc geological corridor, the region hosts favourable structures for both epithermal and orogenic gold systems.

Project Highlights
Tenement ID: N/A
Location: Mount Britton, Central Queensland
Primary Commodity: Gold (Au)
Status: Active EPM – Early Stage Exploration

Geology & Mineralisation
The EPM includes sequences of volcaniclastics, granites, and sedimentary units known to host gold-bearing quartz veins and alteration zones. Historic records suggest the presence of free-milling gold from east-west trending quartz reefs, complemented by widespread alluvial activity in adjacent drainage systems.

Exploration Program
Our immediate exploration focus includes:

  • Historical data compilation and reinterpretation
  • Geological mapping and soil sampling
  • Targeted geophysical surveys
  • Alluvial testing and trenching
  • Shallow drilling across identified anomalies and historic mine zones

Our team is leveraging both modern technology and local geological knowledge to unlock the untapped potential this lease offers.

Access & Infrastructure
The project is easily accessed via well-formed dirt roads from nearby towns including [N/A]. The site benefits from proximity to services, power, and seasonal watercourses – ideal conditions for early-stage fieldwork and future development.

Looking Ahead
We plan to advance exploration quickly, with a view to defining a JORC-compliant resource and transitioning to a Mining Lease (ML). We’re currently seeking expressions of interest from strategic partners, investors, and joint venture collaborators as we scale operations.
