Products and/or services of Estrella Resources

  • Manganese Exploration: Exploration and reconnaissance operations focused on high-grade manganese occurrences in Timor-Leste, involving geological mapping, rock chip sampling, trenching, and preliminary diamond drilling to define resources for industrial steelmaking and battery applications.
  • Nickel Sulphide Exploration: Targeted high-grade nickel, copper, and platinum group element exploration located 80 kilometres northeast of Kalgoorlie, utilizing modern downhole electromagnetic surveys, seismic reflection data, and deep diamond drilling to evaluate massive sulphide mineralisation.
  • Advanced Nickel Resource Development: Evaluation and pre-development activities on high-grade nickel sulphide deposits located south of Coolgardie, Western Australia, leveraging historic underground mining infrastructure and remnant mineralisation for potential fast-tracked commercial extraction.
  • Downhole Geophysical Surveying: Deployment of specialized downhole electromagnetic and audio-frequency magnetotelluric geophysical survey technologies across active tenement portfolios to map sub-surface conductive anomalies and detect deep sulphide target zones prior to drill testing.
  • Tenement Management and Prospecting: Acquisition, maintenance, and administrative management of mineral exploration concessions, reconnaissance licenses, and mining leases spanning critical mineral belts across Southeast Asia and Western Australia to expand the exploration pipeline.
  • Metallurgical and Mineralogical Assaying: Systematic core logging, multi-element chemical assaying, petrological analysis, and early-stage metallurgical test work on drill core samples to establish mineral recoveries, concentrate grades, and commercial viability of target deposits.
