Edjudina Gold Project, WA - Permitting Application to Mine Neta Prospect Lodged

Gibb River Diamonds Limited (ASX:GIB) has announced Edjudina Gold Project, WA - Permitting Application to Mine Neta Prospect Lodged.
  • Gibb River Diamonds Limited (‘GIB’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce that a Mining Proposal covering the Edjudina Gold Project (GIB 100%) has been lodged with the West Australian Mines Department (DEMIRS)
  • The aim of the ‘Mining Proposal For Small Mining Operations’ is to permit mining of the Neta Prospect, part of the Edjudina Gold Project, which is on granted mining lease M31/495
  • The Indicated and Inferred Resource JORC resource at the Neta Prospect is 378,000 tonnes @1.9 g/t for 24,000 Oz Au and includes an Indicated Resource of 110,000 tonnes @ 2.2g/t for 8,000 Oz Au1
  • It is the primary focus of GIB to mine or otherwise monetise this Neta resource as soon as is practicable. The lodging of this Mining Proposal is an important step forward in achieving this aim
  • Once granted, the Mining Proposal will permit for a Mine and Haul operation to be conducted at the Neta Gold Prospect, using toll treatment at a third-party mill (pending commercial contracts). This is the Company’s current priority.
  • The Company is currently communicating with the WTAC Native Title group to finalise a date for a heritage survey to be conducted at the Edjudina Project. It is anticipated that this heritage survey will take place sometime in April 2025. This survey will assist in facilitating both mining at the Neta Prospect and the drilling of new exploration targets in the Company’s recently acquired and highly prospective mining lease M31/481, adjacent to the proposed Neta mining area
  • Discussions are ongoing with various West Australian groups which specialises in mine, haul and toll milling gold operations

NB: it is anticipated that subsequent to the commencent of mining, from time to time, that additional permitting will be required at Edjudina. It is not the intention of GIB to report to the ASX permitting applications, or re-submissions, which the Company does not consider to be material, but are a routine part of permitting mining operations.

About the Edjudina Gold Project

GIB’s Edjudina Gold Project is 145km north east of Kalgoorlie and is located in the heart of the Eastern Goldfields of WA. The project comprises multiple parallel lines of nearly continuous historic gold workings over a 13km strike in which high grade veins have been worked2. A haul road owned and operated by Northern Star Resources Limited runs through the north of the project directly to the Carosue Dam milling complex 45 km to the south.

Discovery to Production: How Juniors are Rewriting the Gold Resource Playbook

Amid a sustained strong gold price, new opportunities are emerging for junior gold explorers to turn their discoveries into cashflow, not through the traditional M&A route, but through pathways to self-production. It’s a shift that is not only reshaping valuations and investor expectations, but the very nature of the junior mining sector.

For decades, the junior gold mining model has been predictable: make a discovery, build a resource, and then sell the project to a major producer. The goal was to de-risk an asset just enough to catch the attention of a larger company with the capital and processing infrastructure needed to bring it into production.

But as the gold price climbs and the competitive landscape tightens, that playbook could be changing — or at least, branching out. Increasingly, juniors are bypassing the “flip” stage and moving directly into production themselves.

Gold Price Breaks US$3,700 for First Time as Fed Cuts Rates

The US Federal Reserve held its sixth meeting of 2025 from Tuesday (September 16) to Wednesday (September 17) amid slowing growth in the country's jobs market.

The central bank met analysts’ expectations by lowering the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to the 4 to 4.25 percent range. It marks the first cut of 2025, after holding at the 4.25 to 4.5 percent range since December 2024.

Despite August consumer price index (CPI) data showing inflation rose to 2.9 percent from 2.7 percent in July, a weakening labor market became the focus of the Fed’s dual mandate of stable prices and maximum employment.
