The Lake Percy Project consists of four exploration licence in the South-Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia, located 60km east of Mt Holland/Earl Grey mining project.
Project overview
The Lake Percy Project covers the northern extension of the Lake Johnston greenstone belt and is prospective for nickel and lithium.
Spodumene bearing pegmatites identified 20km south at Mt Day prospect and more recent lithium discoveries at Medcalf (ASX:CHR) and Burmeister (ASX:TG6).
Geochemical analysis on existing trench and drill spoils indicates positive fractionation trends for LCT mineralisation.
High MgO ultramafic is positive for hosting nickel mineralisation with Maggie Hays and Emily Ann nickel mines within 30km.
Access from Perth is via the Brookton Highway from Perth east to Hyden and then via the Hyden-Norseman Road. Alternatively, access is via the sealed Great Eastern Highway to Southern Cross then south via the Marvel Loch-Forrestania Road until the road intersects the Hyden Norseman Road.
