Pingelly Project

The Pingelly Project covers approximately 206.5 km² in Western Australia’s South West Terrane, a rapidly emerging exploration frontier for critical minerals such as nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), platinum group elements (PGE), lithium, and rare earth elements (REEs).

Positioned near the town of Pingelly, this project represents Greta Minerals Australia Ltd’s strategic entry into a high-potential region defined by major crustal boundaries and tectonic structures, including the South West–Youanmi Terrane boundary and the Corrigin Tectonic Zone.

Regional Significance and New Exploration Paradigm

The project is guided by a new regional exploration model inspired by Chalice Mining’s world-class Julimar Ni-Cu-PGE discovery, which links terranes and crustal-scale boundaries with major mineralization. These insights, supported by seismic, gravity, and magnetic datasets, have fundamentally reshaped exploration strategies across the Yilgarn Craton.

Greta Minerals’ Pingelly Project lies within this newly defined critical minerals corridor, which also includes:

Chalice’s Julimar Deposit

Ausgold’s 3 Moz Katanning Gold Project

Impact Minerals’ Jumbo Project, directly adjacent to and interlaced with Pingelly

Targeting Strategy and Exploration Focus

The ground was secured in early 2022 after Impact Minerals (ASX: IPT) announced outstanding soil geochemistry results for battery and strategic metals, including:

Nickel-Copper-PGE systems

Lithium-Caesium-Tantalum (LCT) pegmatites

Rare Earth Elements (REEs)

Several of these critical mineral anomalies extend into the Pingelly Project area due to the interlocking geometry of tenement boundaries. Greta Minerals aims to verify and expand these targets using the UltraFine+™ geochemical analysis method, which is known for:

Enhancing detection of subtle anomalies

Improving signal-to-noise ratios in complex geologies

Supporting multi-element targeting with high spatial resolution

Exploration Outlook

With overlapping regional structures, proven neighboring anomalies, and a focus on in-demand battery and strategic metals, the Pingelly Project is a frontier exploration play in one of Western Australia’s most geologically dynamic provinces.

Greta Minerals Australia Ltd will prioritize:

Geochemical soil surveys using UltraFine+™

Structural interpretation using gravity and magnetic datasets

Reconnaissance mapping to identify surface expressions of deeper systems

The Pingelly Project is well positioned to contribute to Australia’s critical minerals future, while leveraging a proven regional exploration model and strategic landholding near tier-one discoveries.
