Belararox Limited (ASX:BRX) (“Belararox” or “the Company”), an advanced mineral explorer focused on high value clean energy metals, is pleased to report on its quarterly activities for the period ending 30 June 2023. During the quarter, the Company executed binding agreement to acquire TMT project in Argentina, commenced Phase 2 drilling at Belara project and exploration work at Bullabulling project.
Operational Highlights
TMT Project (Argentina)
- Satellite imagery confirms hydrothermal alteration at the Toro, Malambo, and Tambo project, revealing 11 prospective targets identified by Dr. Steve Garwin.
- The targets are interpreted to be associated with high sulphidation epithermal and/or porphyry mineralisation showing similar characteristics to Filo del Sol and/or Veladero Projects.
- Nine Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) applications for the upcoming 2023-2024 field season have been submitted to the San Juan Mines Department and are expected to be approved soon.
Belara Project (NSW)
- Phase 2 drilling at Native Bee confirms and extends massive sulphide mineralisation, with mineralisation continuing over 100 meters south and remaining open at depth, indicating significant potential for further mineralisation.
- Highlights include:
- 6.0m at 4.00% Zn, 0.27% Cu, 1.15% Pb, 33.70g/t Ag and 0.37g/t Au from 151.0m in NBDD007, including 3.0m at 7.57% Zn, 0.06% Cu, 2.11% Pb, 58.27g/t Ag and 0.70g/t Au.
- 8.0m at 2.17% Zn, 1.08% Cu, 0.14% Pb, 15.55g/t Ag and 0.16g/t Au from 175.0m in NBDD009.
Bullabulling Project (WA)
- Anomalous rock chip assays collected during geological mapping of Belararox's Bullabulling project indicated potential Lithium-Caesium-Tantalum (LCT) pegmatites, with fractionated pegmatite assays showing 2,444 ppm Li2O, anomalous Cs at 196 ppm, and Rb at 982 ppm.
- Historical workings also exhibited high-grade gold assays of up to 11.95 g/t Au in vuggy gossanous quartz material associated with mafic basalts and amphibolites, similar to the adjacent Bullabulling goldfield.
Corporate
- Cash at bank at the end of the quarter was $3.15 million.
- In May 2023 Belararox settled the acquisition of the TMT Project in Argentina.
- Belararox completed a strategic capital raise of $2.5 million through a placement of shares at $0.33 and free attaching options.
- Belararox announced the appointment of Jason Ward as a non executive director with effect from 1 June 2023; and the resignation of Michelle Stokes with effect from 1 July 2023.
Managing Director, Arvind Misra, commented:
The TMT Project in Argentina confirmed hydrothermal alteration and identified 11 prospective targets, with EIA applications submitted for approval, showcasing our commitment to field work. The Belara Project in NSW made notable progress, extending massive sulphide mineralization through Phase 2 drilling at Native Bee. Additionally, the Bullabulling Project in WA expanded its potential with Lithium- Caesium-Tantalum pegmatites and high-grade gold assays. On the corporate front, we successfully raised $2.5 million, strengthening our financial position, and have up to USD $1m of services at the TMT Project that can be settled through shared issuance per the agreement with Condor Prospecting Pty Ltd(1). We are also pleased that Jason Ward has joined us as a non-executive director, with his extensive knowledge and experience working in Argentina, as we strive for continued success in achieving our strategic goals. I take this opportunity to thank founding director Michelle Stokes for her dedication to the Company and wish her well for the future.

Belararox Limited
Overview
Belararox Limited (ASX:BRX) is an Australian mineral exploration and development company focusing on its 100-percent-owned base and precious metals projects, targeting zinc, copper, gold, silver, nickel and lead resources, and aiming to be. The company aims to be a significant contributor to help meet the world’s growing demand for battery and renewable energy metals.
The Australian government is investing nearly AU$70 billion to boost renewable energy initiatives to meet its 2030 net-zero goals, which not only provides Belararox opportunity to access government funding but also allows it to benefit from a supportive policy regime.
Belara, the company’s flagship project in New South Wales, has an inferred resource estimate of 5 million tonnes of base and precious metals. Belararox also recently acquired a new asset in Argentina, which the company will soon begin exploration work on.
Belararox has completed Phase 1 drilling, confirmed historical mineralizations, and upgraded the JORC-compliant inferred resource estimate at its flagship Belara asset. The updated resource estimate resulted in a 100-percent increase in mineralized tonnes, a 65-percent increase in copper, and a newly defined 33,762 ounces of gold. The company is now moving towards Phase 2 drilling.
Bullabulling, the company’s secondary asset in Western Australia, is slated for lithium permatite exploration work to be completed by middle of 2023, with results being available by the end of the year.
In March 2023, Belararox entered a binding agreement to acquire 100 percent of the Toro-Malambo-Tambo (TMT) Base Metals and Cu-Au Porphyry project in Argentina (TMT Project) from Fomo Ventures. As part of the transaction, Belararox will enter into royalty deeds with Fomo shareholders with respect to a one-percent net smelter royalty. The TMT project is believed to be highly prospective for zinc, an in-demand clean energy metal used in processes to reduce carbon emissions.
Company Highlights
- Belararox Limited is a mineral exploration and development company focussing on its 100-percent-owned precious and base metal assets.
- The company’s focus on battery metals creates an opportunity to gain access to funding from the Australian government, which is investing in mining projects to reach its 2030 net-zero goals.
- Belara, the company’s flagship asset, has an inferred resource of 5 million tonnes of base and precious metals, including zinc, lead, copper, silver and gold.
- Belararox Limited will soon begin the next phase of drilling at Belara.
- The company’s secondary Bullabulling project in Western Australia has a planned drilling campaign for 2023.
- Belararox’s recently acquired Toro-Malambo-Tambo (TMT) project in Argentina includes untested assets. The company inspected and reviewed key mineralised sections of historical drill core stored in trays as part of its due diligence process in acquiring the project and has verified the presence of zinc mineralisation.
- An experienced board and management team leads the company towards exploring and developing its asset portfolio with expertise throughout the mining industry.
