By GlobalDataLocated almost 450km south of Ulaanbaatar, the 175km² Bronze Fox Project comprises three underexplored, large and near surface porphyry systems as well as other early-stage copper and gold targets.
Woomera CEO Ralf Kriege said: “This transaction provides Woomera with an opportunity to explore for high-quality, large-scale copper-gold discoveries, offering globally significant potential, in an established porphyry copper region.”
Woomera plans to start an exploration programme at the Bronze Fox project to focus on new discoveries, increase the resource base and target the higher-grade sections of the system.
Kriege added: “We are eager to unlock substantial upside and collaborate closely with Kincora to advance the Southern Gobi project towards its full potential.”
Kincora’s previous drilling efforts have identified three large porphyry complexes, highlighting the project’s potential for new discoveries and resource delineation.
