Gold Mining Journal - Paydirt

The first batch of mineralised ore from Star Minerals Ltd's Tumblegum South project is on track to be fed through the hungry Plutonic mill in mid-August.

Star officially made the transition to miner in early May when the maiden blast was completed at Tumblegum South, about 40km south of Meekatharra, under the tutelage of mining contractor MEGA Resources and its sister company Bain Global Resources.

Star Minerals has expanded its pipeline of gold growth opportunities after securing a new 219km² exploration project near Merredin in Western Australia (WA).

This move follows the granting of Exploration Licence E70/6810 and the lodgement of an additional licence application, E70/6831, to extend its coverage northwards.

The licences were secured through tenement applications at a relatively low cost.
