Herberton Project
Iltani’s Herberton project consists of multiple tenements in the Herberton Mineral Field (Northern Queensland) covering approx. 367km2.
The Herberton Mineral Field is a highly prospective terrain with a long history of mining. Tin deposits were discovered in Herberton in 1880 and more than 2,400 old mines and prospects are known in the Herberton-Mt Garnet region. Most mines have been worked for tin, but also tungsten, copper and silver-lead-zinc plus bismuth, antimony, molybdenum and gold.
Iltani’s key targets in the Herberton Project are:
| Target | Mineralisation Style | Commodities |
|---|---|---|
| Orient | Epithermal | Silver, Lead, Zinc & Indium |
| Isabel | Massive sulphide | Silver, Lead, Zinc & Indium |
| Isabel Extended | Massive sulphide | Copper, Lead, Zinc & Silver |
| Antimony Reward | Epithermal | Antimony |
| Boonmoo | Low sulphidation epithermal | Gold |
Minimal modern exploration has taken place in the area – Iltani was the first to drill at Orient since minor exploration during the 1980s. The Boonmoo Sag Caldera includes the significant mineralisation at Orient plus several historic Cu, Ag-Pb-Zn and Au mines and prospects.
