Opportunity & Potential
- StanAurum stands at the precipice of the next boom in the metals market, ideally positioned to capitalize on the increasing demand for tin, critical minerals, and clays.
- Tin, a critical component for electronic soldering, is poised for a surge in price due to a worldwide shortage in supply. This presents a lucrative opportunity.
- StanAurum is not just well-situated but also well-prepared, boasting pre-drilled tin resources with a flagship exploration target with a potential of 120,000 tonnes of tungsten & 77,000 tonnes of tin. This is just the beginning - mineralisation is abundant throughout the prospective zone and the project area at large.
- The potential for resource expansion is substantial, with 52,000 hectares playing host to 84 occurrences of gold, tin, critical metals, and kaolin clay.
- The region’s rich history in tin mining, which has yielded 80,000 tonnes of tin, with potential to locate further substantial mineralization, which lends credibility to its untapped potential.
- Tin mining is an environmentally friendly process that doesn't rely on harmful chemicals. This is due to tin's innate characteristics - it's safe, inert, and extensively used in food production.
- Tin's value extends beyond food production. It acts as the metaphorical glue holding together the electronic circuitry in a myriad of devices, especially electric vehicles. As the EV market continues to expand, so too will the demand for tin.
Company Structure
StanAurum Limited is a public unlisted company with seven subsidiaries:
Sugarloaf Critical Metals Pty Ltd - Tin, tungsten, molybdenum, bismuth, rare earth, light metals, kaolin clay.
Ruby Creek Resources Pty Ltd - Tin, tungsten, molybdenum, bismuth, rare earth, light metals, kaolin clay.
Severn Critical Metals Pty Ltd - Tin, tungsten, molybdenum, bismuth, rare earth, light metals, kaolin clay.
Magnus Critical Metals Pty Ltd - Tin, tungsten, molybdenum, bismuth, rare earth, light metals, kaolin clay.
Potential Near and Medium-Term Production
Each of these sites represents a potential source of considerable revenue.
- Lode Creek Mine is a hard rock deposit with significant potential, hosting tin, clay, and rare earth elements. It has the potential to contain between
8.0 million tonnes of resource bearing material in addition to the 200,000 BCM of tin-tungsten bearing mullock dumps. In addition to the above resource, there are large areas of remnant old alluvial workings to be investigated. - Preliminary estimates for Lode Creek suggest a value exceeding $200 per tonne of rock, based on current market prices for tin, tungsten, kaolin clay, and rare earth elements. However, this is pre-scoping and yet to be verified. Capital expenditure, operating expense scoping, and pre-feasibility studies will be conducted after listing.
- Sugarloaf and adjoining Trollopes Hill is a promising target area within large mineralised zones, spanning over 3,000 meters, known for tin, tungsten, and molybdenum deposits.
- Horrigans Gully is another long-term prospect with historically reported high-grade Tin deposits.
- Mineral Hill presents an additional opportunity for the extraction of tin, tungsten, and molybdenum.
- Similarly, Lord Nolans is a promising area, known for its tin, tungsten, and molybdenum deposits.
