Western Yilgarn (ASX:WYX) has expanded the JORC-compliant footprint of its West Julimar Bauxite Project in Western Australia after executing new land access agreements over Zones 100 and 200, securing access to extensive lateritic bauxite immediately adjoining and between its existing mineral resource areas.
The agreements provide continuous access across the majority of the laterite–gravel system hosting the company's combined 104.8Mt inferred JORC-compliant Bauxite mineral resource, comprising 42.6Mt at 31.8% Al₂O₃ at Zone 100 and 62.2Mt at 36.4% Al₂O₃ at Zone 200.
The newly accessible ground includes large, previously unexplored areas of prospective laterite that extend beyond current resource boundaries and link the two deposits within a single geological system, opening the mineralised footprint to systematic drilling.
