Location of the Tripitaka Project
The Tripitaka zircon deposit is located about 100km northwest of Ceduna and is accessible by road, including 90km of which is the sealed Eyre Highway.
 
History of the Tripitaka Project
Tripitaka was discovered by Iluka in November 2005. The deposit straddles the boundary of the Exploration Licences EL3233 and EL3316
 
Geology of the Tripitaka Project
Tripitaka’s mineralisation is within unconsolidated sands above the water table and is thought to be mainly aeolian in character, which overlie a sequence of beach sands. The deposit is divided into a northern and southern zone separated by a crystalline basement high. Traverses 54200 and 52600, through the northern and southern zones of the Tripitaka deposit are shown as cross sections.
