The 3 key ingredients for discovery success …

An unconformity-related HREE deposit must have 3 key ingredients:

1. The right stratigraphic setting

Unconformity between the Pargee Sandstone and the Killi Killi Formation at Castella is analogous to the unconformity between Gardiner Sandstone and Browns Range Metamorphics at Browns Range. Read more

2. The right style of mineralisation

Extensive surface mineralisation includes HREE in Xenotime, confirming the right ore-forming system (same as Browns Range). Read more

3. The right plumbing system

Structures (faults and folds) are present, offsetting and deforming the unconformity. The Pargee Sandstone and Killi Killi Formation both host mineralisation with breccia zones linking the two. Read more

The Brazilian Projects represent the next step for PVW with the essential criteria for success including:

1. A promising jurisdiction

Brazil is one of the world’s most prospective and proactive countries for mineral exploration and mining.  Multiple successful REE projects are at various stages from discovery to production. Read more

2. The right Executive Team

PVW have put the right team in place in Brazil, the people reflect the quality of the mining industry and the country’s potential for growth. Read more

3. Geological potential

The range of commodities, deposit styles, and geological environments throughout the country provides multiple avenues for exploration success.  Critical mineral and precious metal opportunities are abundant. Read more
