The company is currently exploring within Australia and Peru and holds in excess of 8,000 km² of exploration title (granted tenements and tenement applications).

In February 2017 the Company announced a Strategic Alliance with South32 (SAA) who are providing funds to advance selected early stage prospects to the drilling stage with follow-up drilling under agreed joint venture terms. During 2018 the Company received approximately A$9.5M for exploration programs in both Peru and Australia and for ongoing project generation.

The company explores for a range of commodities and mineralisation styles including magmatic nickel-copper-platinum group element sulphides, large porphyry copper and iron oxide-copper-gold, and stratabound base metal deposits. Most of the projects are “greenfields” in nature.

Peru - Copper-Gold

Over the past eight years AusQuest has assembled a world-class exploration opportunity in Peru, South America – one of the world’s most prominent destinations for international copper exploration

Cerro de Fierro

The Project is located in southern Peru ~140km south of the Mina Justa Cu deposit. Drilling in 2018 intersected significant Cu (Au) mineralisation related to a sizeable IOCG system.

Parcoy IOCG Project

The project is located approximately 50km north of Cerro de Fierro within similar volcanic rocks. Rock and soil sampling in 2019 have outlined large areas of highly anomalous Cu (+/- Au) associated with intrusive monzodiorites and the adjacent volcanic rocks.

Balladonia Nickel-Copper Project

The Project is located ~60km south of the Nova–Bollinger nickel-copper deposit and consists of four Exploration Licences covering an area of ~1200 km². Shallow aircore drilling in 2019 identified a base metal target approximately 500m x 200m in size.

Tangadee Zinc Project

The project is located ~50km south-west of Newman close to the eastern margin of the Edmund Basin of WA. Exploration is targeting sediment hosted zinc deposits similar to those found in NW Queensland.

Hamilton IOCG Project

The Hamilton Project is located in NW Queensland approximately 120km south of the Cannington mine and is targeting IOCG style deposits. Phase 1 drilling intersected anomalous copper associated with argillic alteration in the Proterozoic rocks beneath the Cretaceous cover.

Our Geological Consultants

The company comprises a team of highly experienced geologists and geophysicists with a great breadth of technical and managerial expertise across most mineral commodities.
