The property packages for sale include the tenement, the data and the targeting ideas. You benefit from my extensive experience. Commodities include lithium, tin, gold, rare earths, iron, graphite….and more to come. The deals I do are flexible and realistic.

I have assembled several rare earth projects, which have been selected to be very competitive with other known deposits and exploration projects in Australia. They do not include hard-rock monazite rich deposits which are way too expensive to mine and extract. They do include unusual styles of mineralization with varied prospectivity, likely to be cheap to explore, and cheap to mine. Much of this prospectivity I would not disclose on this website; but can be disclosed to genuinely interested parties.

In my current semi-retirement mode I have done a lot of brilliant paintings, all framed by me at the Subiaco Men’s Shed; all now cluttering my office and looking for homes.
Watch this space as I add photos…. as soon as I figure out how.
Prices will be bargains. The proportion a gallery would impose in commission I will donate to the Salvos.

NEW! Exciting untested pegmatite areas in Western Australia. No detail will be posted here. Email me for information. Prefer to deal with existing WA companies or those familiar with WA exploration regulations.

More Rocks In Our Heads by Andrew Drummond

Connor Court Publishing Pty Ltd, 2022, 430pp, ISBN 9281922449

I was a contributor to the first volume compiled by Andrew Drummond: ‘Rocks In Our Heads’ (Connor Court Publishing, 2020), so feel I have some qualification to comment on the second one. The books tell the experiences (often hardly believable but all true!) of the many geologists who have worked in exotic and often dangerous places.

Available for sale on flexible terms. Cheap entry at this early phase of exploration.

Ionic Adsorption clay deposits, with a very unusual setting: Eocene sediments within a Permian paleochannel along the Terrane boundary between the Archean Yilgarn Block and the Proterozoic Albany Fraser Province. And other styles!

A carefully researched project to avoid the nasty typical Esperance district REE deposits. They are not ion absorption clays. They have poor REE recoveries.
Also prospective for Li, Au, base metals, HPA, silica sand.

I welcome enquiries from buyers who are interested in vacant prospective ground.
