Rumble Resources’ Earaheedy Zinc-Lead-Silver Project is located 110km north of Wiluna in the highly prospective Earaheedy Basin in Western Australia, with access to major highways, power, rail, ports and mining workforce.
The project comprises a 75% interest in tenement E69/3464, with Zenith Minerals Ltd (ASX: ZNC) holding the remaining 25% and 100%-owned contiguous exploration licences – E69/3787, E69/3815, E69/3862 and applications for E69/4062, E69/4099, E69/4257, M69/150 and an application for miscellaneous licence L69/58.
Recognised as one of the largest undeveloped zinc-sulphide discoveries globally in the past decade, Earaheedy offers a large-scale, low-cost open pit mining opportunity in a tier-one jurisdiction.
The project is highly leveraged to the global renewable energy transition and boasts exceptional resource growth potential, with deposits remaining open down dip and along strike with less than 30% of the 70km host unit effectively drill tested.
Mineralisation at Earaheedy is Mississippi Valley Type (MVT) hosted within the Sweetwater’s Well Dolomite and has been upgraded by supergene processes in places to form the Navajoh Unconformity Unit (NUU), concentrating sulphide minerals into a smaller volume.
In April 2023 Rumble announced a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) at Earaheedy of 94Mt @ 3.1% Zn+Pb and 4.1 g/t Ag. The inferred resource is pit constrained.
In 2023, Rumble made a further significant Zn-Pb-Ag discovery at the Mato Prospect, located 10km west of the Chinook Prospect and within its 100% owned EL’s. The new Mato discovery has all the hallmarks of a large mineralised system that will likely enhance future economic studies and provides further support to Earaheedy developing into a world class base metal camp.
In October 2023 the Company acquired four exploration tenements in the Earaheedy Basin from Blaze Minerals Ltd.
The acquisition added a further 30km of the laterally extensive Navajoh Unconformity Unit, which hosts the current deposits at Chinook, Tonka, Navajoh and mineralisation at the recently discovered Mato Prospect.
An internal scoping study is on track for completion in Q3 2025.
