Impact Minerals managing director Dr Mike Jones said: “The sale of a 75% interest in our long-held Commonwealth Project in New South Wales is a very good outcome for the company and its shareholders.

“It allows us to continue our strategic change in focus to the large and prospective portfolio of battery and strategic metals projects in Western Australia which we have put together over the past 18 months and in addition also gives Impact considerable exposure to the upside potential of the Commonwealth project into which we have invested financial and considerable intellectual capital.”

Covering more than 500km² within the prolific Lachlan Fold Belt copper-gold province in NSW, the Commonwealth Project is a high sulphidation, gold-rich VMS deposit.

Based on Impact’s work, the project has defined inferred resources of 88,800oz of contained gold, and 3.3Moz of contained silver with significant zinc and lead credits.
