What Aldoro Resources does

Aldoro Resources Ltd is an ASX-listed (ASX: ARN) mineral exploration and development company headquartered in Subiaco, Perth, Western Australia, with a portfolio of four critical mineral projects spanning two jurisdictions. The flagship is the Kameelburg REE/Niobium Project in Namibia, a carbonatite-hosted rare earth and niobium deposit covering 1,017 km2 across three Exploration Prospecting Licences held under an 85%-owned joint venture with a local Namibian partner. Maiden hydrometallurgical testwork at Kameelburg demonstrated a direct acid leaching process at ambient temperature and pressure that achieves 72% total rare earth element extraction and greater than 99% strontium recovery without prior benefaction (flotation or magnetic separation), a processing simplification that could lower capital and operating costs relative to most global REE projects. Soil samples within the >1% TREO contour average 1.44% TREO across a 0.838 km2 area, and rock chip samples average 1.27% TREO, supporting the project's multi-commodity REE/niobium/strontium potential.

The remaining portfolio comprises three Western Australian assets: the Narndee Igneous Complex (Ni-Cu-PGE, with drill intersections including 4.26m at 1.22% Ni, 0.53% Cu, 0.08% Co), the Niobe lithium-rubidium-tantalum pegmatite project with a modelled inferred resource of 4.6 Mt at 0.17% Rb2O and 0.07% Li2O under a 195 ha mining lease application (M59/775), and the Wyemandoo lithium-rubidium-tungsten project with Ni-Cu-PGE-gold potential.

Aldoro is a pre-revenue exploration company with 1-10 employees and no commercial sales or customers; its go-to-market consists of ASX capital raising (equity and option offers), ASX announcements, investor presentations, and third-party equity research (including T.E.P Investments coverage) targeting institutional investors, retail shareholders, and prospective strategic or offtake partners. Revenue, when generated, is expected to come from development and sale of mineral assets or future offtake agreements for REEs, niobium, lithium, rubidium, and base metals.

Core offering

Aldoro Resources is an ASX-listed mineral exploration and development company advancing a portfolio of critical mineral projects. Its flagship Kameelburg REE/Niobium Project in Namibia is a carbonatite-hosted rare earth and niobium deposit using a proprietary direct acid leaching process. Complementary Western Australian projects target lithium-rubidium-tantalum pegmatites (Niobe), nickel-copper-PGE sulphides (Narndee), and lithium-rubidium-tungsten with Ni-Cu-PGE-Au potential (Wyemandoo).

Product overview

Aldoro Resources Ltd is an ASX-listed (ASX: ARN) mineral exploration and development company with a portfolio of four critical mineral projects. The flagship is the Kameelburg REE/Niobium Project in Namibia, a carbonatite-hosted rare earth and niobium deposit where direct acid leaching achieved 72% REE recovery. Three Western Australian projects comprise the Narndee Igneous Complex (Ni-Cu-PGE targeting), the Niobe Project (lithium-rubidium-tantalum with 4.6 Mt resource at 0.17% Rb2O), and the Wyemandoo Project (lithium-rubidium-tungsten with Ni-Cu-PGE-gold potential). The company does not operate a software product platform.

Products and services

• Kameelburg REE/Niobium Project Flagship rare earth element and niobium carbonatite project located approximately 300 km north of Windhoek, Namibia, covering three Exploration Prospecting Licences totalling 1,017 km². Aldoro holds 85% equity in the joint venture with a local Namibian partner. Soil samples within the >1% TREO contour average 1.44% TREO and rock chip samples average 1.27% TREO. Maiden metallurgical testwork achieved 72% total REE extraction and greater than 99% strontium recovery using direct acid leaching.
• Narndee Igneous Complex Nickel-copper-platinum group element (Ni-Cu-PGE) exploration project located 90 km SSW of Mount Magnet in Western Australia. Two prospects (VC01 and Area32) have been identified, with recent drilling intersecting both massive and disseminated sulphides, including intersections such as 4.26m @1.22%Ni, 0.53%Cu, 0.08%Co from 277.14m depth.
• Niobe Project Lithium-rubidium-tantalum pegmatite project located approximately 70 km northwest of Mount Magnet in Western Australia, covering a 195 ha mining lease application (M59/775) over part of the Dalgaranga-Mount Farmer pegmatite swarm. Modelled inferred resource of 4.6 Mt at 0.17% Rb₂O and 0.07% Li₂O at a cut-off grade of 0.05% Rb₂O, with historical Li₂O values up to 1.29%.
• Wyemandoo Project Lithium-rubidium-tungsten project located in the Windimurra Igneous Complex in Western Australia, targeting pegmatite dyke and sill swarms. Also has nickel-copper-PGE-gold potential along its western structurally controlled margin.
