The Mons Belt represents a district scale discovery, spanning ~80km x 30km over 17 tenements and covering ~3005km2 north of the Forrestania greenstone belt. The Mons Belt provides a new and exciting frontier in critical metal exploration in Western Australia, the company is currently working with the CSIRO to advance the lithology and mineralisation types within one of Australia's newest greenstone belt discoveries in the Yilgarn Craton, a region with significant untapped potential.
Nimy Resources believes the Mons Belt offers multi commodity potential with the initial discovery of Masson (Cu, Ni, Co, Au & PGE's) in addition to Block 3 east prospect with high-grade gallium (Ga) discovered in the northern tenements.
In addition to these discoveries, the southern tenements have significant fertile komatiite sequences like those found in the Kambalda region of WA.
The Mons Belt is a district scale discovery with a land holding consisting of 17 approved tenements covering an 80km north/south strike of mafic and ultramafic sequences.
