An Established Gold Province

The Charters Towers to Clermont belt in Central Queensland has been a significant gold producing area since the 1860s when gold was discovered at Clermont. Significant epithermal gold deposits (1Morrison & Beams, 1995) include:

  • Charters Towers district: Production 6.6 Moz

  • Pajingo: Production + resource 3 Moz

  • Mount Carlton: > 1 Moz

  • Wirralie: Production 320,000 oz

  • Yandan: Production 350,000 oz

  • Mount Coolon: Production 290,000 oz

  • Twin Hills: Resource 390,000 oz

    ASX:ZGM

    Zamia's discovery of the Anthony molybdenum deposit demonstrates the potential of the region to host significant porphyry systems

    Geological Setting

    • Anakie Inlier: A north-trending basement ridge of Neoproterozoic to Cambrian metamorphic rocks

    • Drummond Basin: A Devonian to Carboniferous volcano-sedimentary sequence with the Silver Hills Volcanics (dacite - andesite) at the base

    • Devonian to Carboniferous intrusive complexes of granite to diorite composition with high level porphyry & breccia bodies

    • Drummond Basin flanked by basin sequences of Permian to Mesozoic age

    • Extensive black soil obscures bedrock

Targeting Porphyry-style Deposits

The Anthony molybdenum deposit, discovered by Zamia, is a typical porphyry system -

  • High level porphyry & breccia intrusions

  • Stockwork vein mineralisation

  • Large tonnage

  • Characteristic alteration patterns

  • A large geochemical halo

    The Anthony discovery demonstrates regional prospectivity for large porphyry- style deposits

    Porphyry deposits, even when buried to depths of hundreds of metres, make excellent mining targets -

  • Large size

  • Can be bulk mined by block caving

  • Simple mineralogy & processing
