Family Farm to National Treasure

  • 1992: NSW Government geoscientists took note, launching reconnaissance surveys to confirm local legends of black marble that never stains.
  • 2013: A helicoptermounted infrared and Xray campaign literally lit up the subsurface, outlining a vast, homogenous granite body. The chopper landed in the familys back paddock with the first 3D imagery in tow.
  • 2015: A fully modelled resource map landed on the kitchen tableturning a farming family into potential mine owners overnight.
  • 2019: Mining Lease granted; the family recruited seasoned quarry managers, acquired plant, and drilled five pilot holes to 150 m.
  • 2020: Deepcore drilling to 1,002 m confirmed uninterrupted granite of uniform hue and grain, sealing the sites reputation as Australias single largest premiumgrade deposit.
  • Today: With succession plans calling for retirement, the owners are offering the asset with approvals, permits and historical data included.
