Red Tipper Project
Initially acquired as WAGR’s flagship asset, Red Tipper embodies the company’s vision of turning high-potential gold prospects into tangible value. Located just 10km south of the Fairyland Gold Mine—which boasts over 140,000 ounces at 4 g/t Au—Red Tipper sits in a proven gold district with a historical resource of its own: 140,000 ounces at 4 g/t. A Program of Work (POW) is already approved, clearing the path for surface gold exploration and extraction. Surface rock chip samples from reefs near the historical shaft have returned grades up to 3.67 g/t, while 1987 drilling intercepted gold at 4 g/t, signaling untapped potential. With its proximity to the eastern Lawlers deposit group and robust infrastructure access, Red Tipper is a cornerstone of WAGR’s long-term growth strategy.
WAGR acquired the Red Tipper Project (tenement M36/0204) as its flagship project due to the historical high grades and walk-up drill targets. A program of work (POW) is in place for the Red Tipper Project to commence exploration and extraction of surface gold. Lithium and Rare Earth potential is also visible from pegmatite outcrops at Mt McAuley within the Lawlers project.
Exploration Strategy
Red Tipper’s exploration story is one of rediscovery and expansion. Historical drilling and surface sampling—yielding up to 4 g/t and 3.67 g/t respectively—provide a strong baseline, but WAGR is taking it further. The approved POW enables a comprehensive campaign of drilling and geophysical surveys to delineate the full extent of this high-grade deposit. Positioned in a structurally favorable zone, Red Tipper’s geology hints at deeper mineralization that could significantly boost its resource profile, making it a key driver of WAGR’s exploration success.
