Nimy gains CSIRO Kick-Start program funding for gallium exploration
Mining exploration company Nimy Resources Ltd of Perth, Western Australia has entered into an agreement with Australia’s national science agency CSIRO, supported by their Kick-Start program, to commence the Regolith Research study. This study aims to develop a geomorphic model to enhance the confidence in gallium exploration within the Mons Project in Western Australia.
The aims of the CSIRO Kick-Start program are as follows:
- the regolith research will focus on the Block 3 Gallium Resource;
- the research will utilize cutting-edge machine learning and scientific expertise;
- the findings from the project will be utilized in improving the understanding of in-situ and transported regolith at Mons and how gallium and associated pathfinders move through these environments.
“The focus of the project will be on the Block 3 Gallium Prospect, building upon the recently developed CSIRO LandScape+ Model, to develop a more refined geomorphic province model,” says Nimy’s managing director Luke Hampson. “Our exploration findings from the studies will assist in targeting on both an individual deposit and regional scale, focusing on additional high-grade gallium resource tonnes.”
