Project highlights Dubbo Zirconia Project (Toongi), about 275 km northwest of Sydney, is a world-class resource containing zirconium (ZrO2), hafnium (HfO2), niobium (Nb2O5), tantalum (Ta2O5), yttrium (Y2O3) and rare earth elements. Toongi is currently in construction, with production anticipated to commence in 2018. The deposit is associated with a hydrothermally altered pipe-like alkaline (trachyte) intrusion of Jurassic age. Narraburra, 375 km west of Sydney, contains zirconium oxide, yttrium oxide, rare earth oxides, niobium oxide, and thorium oxide, hosted by deeply weathered and fresh leucogranite. Exploration targets The Lachlan Orogen, recognised as a world-class mineral province for metalliferous deposits, also hosts important rare earth element Pegmatite, Triple Chance mine. deposits. Exploration opportunities for rare earth elements include highly Rare earth elements uses (2013) by value fractionated metaluminous and peralkaline I-type granitoids and associated skarns (e.g. at Narraburra, Jindera and Whipstick). 65% Catalysts Latite–trachyte intrusions, mainly of Jurassic age, are scattered widely across NSW. These intrusions have potential for Toongi-style deposits. Laterites associated with the intrusions have potential to host elevated concentrations of rare earth elements. 19% Metallurgical alloys The New England Orogen hosts highly fractionated, relatively oxidised and metaluminous I-type granitoids of Permian to Early Triassic age. The Mole Granite, north east of Inverell, is associated with many polymetallic mineral occurrences, some of which contain 9% monazite with elevated rare earth elements and thorium. Other Magnets prospective rocks in the area include the Dumboy-Gragin and Gilgai granitoids. 6% Polishing, glazes In the Proterozoic Curnamona Craton, highly anomalous 1% concentrations of rare earth elements occur in sulfide-bearing Other deposits including the famous Broken Hill base metal deposit.
