AddressAbout Us
Aurelia Metals Limited (ASX: AMI) (‘Aurelia’) is an Australian gold and base metals mining and exploration company. We own and operate three underground mines and processing facilities in New South Wales (NSW) and have an enviable portfolio of organic growth prospects in the region.
Our Peak Mine comprises two underground polymetallic (gold, lead, zinc, copper, and silver) mines and an 800 thousand tonnes per annum processing plant. The Mine is located in the northern Cobar Basin in western NSW, a short distance from the town of Cobar.
The Federation deposit hosts high-grade zinc, lead, and gold mineralisation and is located in 15 kilometres south of the central-west township of Nymagee and approximately 90 kilometres from Peak. The opportunity to help shape the future of a new mine does not come around often!
