Locksley Resources (ASX:LKY) is conducting a second round of detailed mapping and structural interpretation to expand geological understanding of the Mojave Project’s rare earths and antimony project in the US.
This news comes after the company deployed its structural geology team to the Mojave Project located in California, with work starting on 24 August 2025.
Field geologists will focus on four priority areas of interest with a view to improve geological understanding of the target areas and uncover additional drill targets.
The work program will focus on detailed mapping and structural geology, rock chip sampling and analysis, and an enlarged 3D geology model for the Desert Antimony Mine prospect area.
Chairman Nathan Lude says the deployment marks an “important” milestone in advancing Mojave.
“At the same time, US policy settings are shifting strategy strongly in favour of projects like ours, with substantial Department of Energy (DoE) funding initiatives, supportive permitting frameworks, and direct engagement opportunities with Export-Import Bank and the Department of Interior,” Lude says.
Upon completion of the work program, Locksley will progress its Critical Minerals Institute membership and US agency engagements.
Technical evaluation of processing options capable of aligning with the DoE pilot and accelerator funding pathways remains ongoing.
Locksley Resources is a critical minerals explorer focused on discoveries in the US.
