Robinson Range

 

Significant iron ore potential has been identified on Meteoric’s 100%-owned Robinson Range project situated 100km north of Meekatharra in the northern part of the emerging Midwest iron province of WA.  This 50sq km project covers a folded sequence of Proterozoic banded iron formation, siltstone and hematitic shale.  The Meteoric tenements cover a cumulative strike length of some 13km of iron formation although examination of aeromagnetic images suggests the iron formations may extend beneath alluvial cover and be more extensive than indicated by previous mapping.

 

Previous work by the Geological Survey of WA observed that the iron formations range up to 30m or more in thickness.  The GSWA also noted the presence of iron oxide enrichment of hematite and goethite with sampling identifying grades up to 62.5% Fe within Meteoric’s tenements.  The sampling also indicated that deleterious elements such as phosphorous and silica were generally low in the areas of iron enrichment.

 

A heritage agreement has recently been signed with the native title claimants paving the way for access on to the project
