Iron Ore, Gold, Copper and Cobalt Mining

Tennora Resources holds 26 granted Mining Leases within the highly prospective Tennant Creek mineral field in the Northern Territory, encompassing historically significant mineral assets within one of Australia's renowned Iron Oxide–Copper–Gold (IOCG) mineral districts. This polymetallic geological system is characterised by magnetite-rich ironstone associated with substantial gold and copper mineralisation, together with cobalt and bismuth. Building on decades of historical mining, geological investigations and resource assessments, Tennora is advancing its development strategy to unlock the value of these minerals. With established magnetite-rich resource recovery operations and ongoing planning for gold, copper and cobalt mining, Tennora is progressing towards a diversified, multi-commodity mining operation.

 

The underground mineral system within Tennora Resources' Tennant Creek mineral assets is characterised by a lode that divides into a copper-rich northern section and a gold-rich southern section. Copper minerals are noted as native copper, cuprite and malachite as found on the dumps, the result of significant secondary enrichment for copper and gold. Lode minerals are listed as gold, magnetite, hematite, chalcopyrite, pyrite, quartz, minor calcite.
