Welcome to Athena Resources
Athena is a Western Australian based exploration company incorporated in April 2005 with the objective of acquiring mineral projects with the potential to be developed into profitable mining operations.
The Company is targeting nickel sulphide and gold mineralisation within Proterozoic mobile belts that contain lucrative mineral deposits on the margins of the Yilgarn and Pilbara cratons. It has applied for and holds tenements in its own right as well as through the proposed acquisition of Capricorn Resources Pty Ltd. Copper, lead, zinc, silver and uranium deposits are attractive alternative exploration targets that are also likely to occur in these areas.
Athena will seek to secure prospective areas in its own right or through acquisition or joint venture as new opportunities arise, the ultimate objective being to define a world class nickel sulphide or copper-gold resource. Providing they are high-grade, smaller discoveries may be of economic benefit to the Company by generating early cash flow to fund on-going exploration.
The Company will optimise opportunities by engaging the services of experienced personnel, applying advanced technologies and the latest exploration methods. The emphasis will be on field work and drilling. To control costs staffing levels will be kept to the minimum necessary to meet the Company’s immediate objectives.
