KURRAJONG MAIDEN MINERAL RESOURCE

Established Australian copper-gold producer and explorer, Aeris Resources Limited announced a maiden JORC 2012 Mineral Resource estimate for the Kurrajong deposit, located within the Company’s 100% owned Tritton tenement package in New South Wales. The MRE comprises 2.2 million tonnes @ 1.7% copper, including a high-grade massive sulphide lens of 1.1 million tonnes @ 2.5% copper.  The Kurrajong deposit is located approximately 20km east of the Tritton Processing plant. 

Aeris’ Executive Chairman, Andre Labuschagne, said “The high-grade nature of the deposit and possibility of further extensions at depth makes Kurrajong an attractive potential future ore source for the Tritton Operation.  The high-grade massive sulphide lens contained within the MRE has a similar copper grade tenor to that of the Avoca Tank resource.” 
“Even though over 900,000 tonnes of copper has already been discovered on the Tritton tenement package 2, we believe it remains highly prospective for further discoveries.”
