Magnetic Resources NL: An Exciting Gold Development Play in Western Australia


Magnetic Resources (ASX:MAU) develops a portfolio of significant gold projects in the established mining province, Laverton region, in Western Australia. The company owns the Hawks Nest and Lady Julie projects in Laverton, the Homeward Bound South project in Leonora, and the Benjabbering project in Julimar. The main deposits include Hawks Nest 9 (HN9), Lady Julie Central (LJC), Lady Julie North 4 (LJN4), Mount Jumbo and Homeward Bound South, all located in an area with well-endowed regional infrastructure, including three processing plants within 10 to 35 kilometres.

Magnetic Resources focuses on LJN4 of the Laverton project, which hosts thick breccia and silica pyrite zones up to 50 metres thick. Mau breccia zones often carry higher grades and are now being extended by new drilling at depth and further to the east and northeast, potentially growing the LJN4 resource.

Magnetic Resources Project Location

The significance of LJN4’s gold resource has not gone unnoticed, as research firm Argonaut has called it a ‘sleeping giant,’ noting recent drilling at LJN4 “indicates a significant discovery unfolding in the Laverton region.” If MAU can replicate the recent drilling intercepts, the next resource update at LNJ4 could easily make it a 1-Moz deposit. This will position LJN4 as one of the best undeveloped gold assets in the Laverton region.
