Poseidon Nickel

Poseidon Nickel Limited (ASX Code: POS) is a nickel sulphide development and exploration company with three projects located within a radius of 300km from Kalgoorlie in the Goldfields region of Western Australia and a resource base of around 400,000 tonnes of nickel and over 180,000 ounces of gold. Poseidon’s strategy is focused on the exploration and eventual restart of it’s established nickel operations in Western Australia where project risk capital and operating costs are low. A critical element of this strategy has been to acquire projects and operations with high levels of geological prospectivity likely to lead to potential substantial extension of the operation’s life through the application of modern exploration techniques. Poseidon owns the Windarra Nickel Project, the Black Swan Nickel Operations and the Lake Johnston Nickel Operations. In addition to the mines and infrastructure including concentrators at Black Swan and Lake Johnston, the operations have significant exploration opportunities demonstrated by the discovery of the Abi Rose deposit at Lake Johnston and the recent discovery of the Golden Swan mineralisation at Black Swan. Management is also reviewing the economics of retreating the gold tailings at Windarra given the strength of that A$ gold price.
