New Ballarat Gold Corporation PLC
NBGC is a privately owned joint venture company owned 50.1% by Red Rock Resources plc (LON:RRR) and 49.9% by Power Metal.
NBGC holds a 100% interest in local operating subsidiary Red Rock Australasia Pty Limited a private Australian company which holds a 100% interest in all operating granted licences and licence applications ("RRAL").
NBGC holds a strong land position of 2,306km(2) (1,501km(2) granted licences) in the rich gold fields of Victoria, Australia, principally around the mining centre of Ballarat, as the result of a focused exploration strategy targeting high grade quartz hosted gold veins systems in a region where the exploration models and targets are well understood.
NBGC has carefully assembled its portfolio of properties comprising a broad range of robust exploration targets, all of which remain largely undeveloped by modern explorers.
With the first tenements granted only in 2021 NBGC is already at an advanced stage of exploration with three promising gold prospects one of which is the subject of the diamond drilling now underway.
Still able to actively operate in the current global pandemic, NBGC has exploration geologists and field crews active in the field. This is coupled with a technical team holding an in-depth knowledge of Victorian geology including extensive underground experience gained from working in currently operating mines in the area.
