Far Northern Resources: Newly Listed Australia-based Gold, Copper Explorer


Far Northern Resources (ASX:FNR) focuses on three gold and base metals projects – two based in Northern Queensland (Empire and Rocks Reef) and one in the Northern Territories (Bridge Creek). Far Northern Resources debuted on the ASX on April 12, 2024, and secured AU$6 million in funding.

The company's Empire Project is located 34 kilometres west of Chillagoe in North Queensland covering 252 hectares, on granted mining lease 20380. The claims boast a rich exploration history, marked by substantial drilling conducted across various phases. This culminated in the determination of a 2019 mineral resource estimate of 22,505 oz of gold on the Empire Stockworks gold deposit.

Empire Project (Copper-Gold)

Far Northern is planning a 20,000-meter drilling program over the next two years, which will consist: of 5,000+ meters for Empire; 2,500 to 5,000 meters for Bridge Creek; and 2,500 meters planned at Rocks Reef in the China Wall prospect.
