The Koojan project is a joint venture between Lachlan Star Limited (45%), Minerals 260 Limited (30%) and Wavetime Nominees (25%), where Minerals 260 are the operating manager of the joint venture. The project is located in the New Norcia region of Western Australia and approximately 80 kilometres north of the recent Julimar Ni-PGE-Cu discovery by Chalice Mining Ltd.
The project is situated within the Western Gneiss Terrain of the Archean Yilgarn Craton of southwest Western Australia and contains prospective mafic-to-ultramafic bodies, hosted within the Jimperding Metamorphic belt. The geological setting is interpreted to be comparable to the host rocks of the Julimar discovery.
The project is actively being explored for copper, nickel, cobalt and PGE mineralisation potential, within a region that has seen minimal historic exploration activity.
