Toro Energy Limited (ASX:TOE) advances a portfolio of assets prospective for nickel, gold and base metals. The company's flagship Wiluna Uranium Project includes four key deposits: Lake Maitland, Centipede, Millipede and Lake Way. The Lake Maitland deposit is amenable to a beneficiation process, which maximises yield with simple screening and de-sliming before ore proceeds to the leach phase. The Lake Maitland deposit is subject to a joint venture partnership with two Japanese corporations, Japan Australia Uranium Resource Development Co. Ltd. (JAURD) and Itochu.
With unique challenges and risks associated with uranium projects that can delay development, Toro Energy has worked to address key risk areas for the Wiluna Uranium Project. To date, the project has received state and federal approval and been granted mining leases, allowing Toro Energy to focus on process design and project costs.
