Welcome to Rox Resources
Rox is a Perth-based Australian exploration company with a geographically diversified suite of zinc-lead projects in Australia and Laos. Rox has established strong projects in some of the world's most promising zinc-lead provinces at Myrtle and Pha Luang.
At Myrtle, Rox has identified a potentially very large zinc-lead deposit with an Inferred Resource of:
- 37 million tonnes grading 4.2% Zn, 1.0% Pb at a 3% cut-off
Higher grade continuous zones of mineralisation are included in this resource such as:
- 15 million tonnes grading 5.5% Zn, 1.5% Pb at a 5% cut-off, or
- 8.2 million tonnes grading 6.4% Zn, 1.9% Pb at a 6% Zn + Pb cut-off
Myrtle is already in the top 10 SEDEX zinc deposits in Australia, and is probably the most significant zinc discovery of its type in Australia in the last 20 years or so.
Only a small portion of the prospective resource area has been drilled, and it is expected that the ultimate resource will be 3-4 times its current size.
Mineralisation at Myrtle is coarse-grained (majority >100 microns in size), so good metallurgical properties and recoveries are expected.
A scoping study has commenced for the Myrtle project. Similiar projects to Myrtle in terms of deposit size and grade, but in less developed parts of the world have recently achieved positive Pre-Feasibility results. Rox is confident that Myrtle will produce excellent economies once the necessary work has been completed.
