The Rare Earth Potential of the Gascoyne Region of Western Australia

Project: Research

Project Details

Description

The Gascoyne Region of Western Australia is an emerging Neodymium-rich rare earth district in its early stagesof development. The mineral occurrences of the region are complex and their geological distribution and source(s)remain unclear. With the support of all the active explorers in the region, a better understanding of the entiremineral system is sought to maximise exploration efficiency. This project aims to undertake a full assessment ofthe minerals, their processing and the environmental impact of production to determine the potential of the region.The expected outcome of the project is to develop a world-class rare earth mineral district in Australia, to ensurefuture supplies of these strategically important metals.
