Kangaroo Plains Project

The Kangaroo Plains Project is a strategically located exploration asset covering approximately 1.1 km² within Western Australia’s Eastern Goldfields. Though compact in size, the project holds significant potential for gold and base metal discoveries, supported by its location on a key regional structural boundary and a record of historic high-grade production.

Strategic Location

The tenement lies directly on the Bullabulling–Coolgardie domain boundary, a well-recognized mineralised corridor that hosts:

The producing Gecko Gold Mine, located ~30 km to the south-southeast
The major Bullabulling Gold Deposit (~3 Moz Au), situated another ~10 km south

This same structural setting enhances the geological credibility of the Kangaroo Plains Project, making it a strong candidate for systematic exploration.

Historical High-Grade Gold Production

Historical records from the Masterton Mine (1904) document the dollied recovery of approximately 1,000 ounces of gold from ore averaging 20.4 g/t Au. Operated by City of London GMs Ltd, the site was not systematically followed up, and the broader area remains largely underexplored, though actively held by local prospectors.

Prospectivity for Gold and VMS-Style Base Metals

The project warrants a modern, systematic exploration program, including:

Soil and rock sampling to identify near-surface gold anomalies
Mapping and gossan identification to evaluate potential for volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) systems
Assaying for copper, lead, and zinc, targeting VMS-style mineralisation potentially related to altered felsic volcanic rocks

In the 1970s, Kennecott explored VMS-style copper-zinc systems in the area, and subsequent drilling by Gold Tiger near the adjacent Credo Project revealed copper sulphide mineralisation in highly altered volcanic units—adding credence to the base metal potential across this corridor.

Exploration Outlook

With a legacy of high-grade gold production, location along a proven mineralised domain boundary, and compelling signs of VMS-style alteration, the Kangaroo Plains Project represents a high-impact, low-footprint opportunity for gold and base metal discovery.

Greta Minerals Pte Ltd is prioritizing next-phase groundwork including sampling, mapping, and geochemical analysis to assess both historical targets and new zones of interest.
