Argent Minerals Limited is an ASX-listed public company focused on creating shareholder wealth through the discovery, extraction and marketing of precious and base metals. A key goal of the Company is to become a leading Australian polymetallic producer. The Company’s project assets are situated in the Lachlan Orogen in New South Wales, Australia, a richly mineralised geological terrane extending from northern NSW and the highly prospective Gascoyne Region, Western Australia.
Argent Minerals’ two projects, in each of which the Company owns 100% interest, is strategically positioned within a compelling neighbourhood which hosts world-class deposits including one of the largest underground copper-gold mines in the southern hemisphere, Newcrest’s Cadia Valley Operations in NSW. The WA assets lie proximal to HAS -Hastings Technology Metals, Dreadnought, Fortescue Metals and Rio Tinto Limited.
Currently the company’s tenement package cover over 1,000 km2 in Western Australia targeting Cu-Ni-REE-PGE and Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag within 175km2 in New South Wales. The company also has the Kempfield Deposit currently estimated under the 2012 JORC Code at 52 million ounces silver equivalent of silver, lead, zinc & gold
