Clay-hosted REEs are red-hot now in Australia and new entrants run the risk of being lost in the crowd, a fate that Requisite Resources is confident that it can avoid.
The magic ingredients that the company is counting on are its very large landholding – indeed the largest at 5,280km2 – right smack in the middle of the emerging clay-hosted REE province in Western Australia’s Esperance region as well as the luxury of not having to reinvent the wheel.
And unlike many other junior explorers who embark on drill programs after raising funds from their initial public offerings, Requisite, which is looking to raise $6m and list on the ASX in the third quarter of 2023, is already progressing a maiden 384 aircore hole program.
Emerging rare earths province
Esperance has received significant attention in recent times following a spate of successful exploration in the region for REEs, which are some of the most in-demand commodities globally, given their use in permanent magnets for electric vehicle motors and wind turbines.
Companies such as Mount Ridley Mines (ASX:MRD), OD6 Metals (ASX:OD6), West Cobar Metals (ASX:WC1) and Heavy Rare Earths (ASX:HRE) have all reported very intriguing REE drill hits – with the latter two defining maiden resources – across some 20,000km2 of ground.
It is in this frontier exploration province that Requisite has carved out a 5,280km2 – split between the Mount Ney and Balladonia projects – tenure in which to repeat the successes that its neighbours have already achieved.
