Eminence Commissions GE21 for Technical Review of Campo Grande Project

Strategic Assessment to Advance Campo Grande

Eminence Minerals Limited (ASX – EMA) has taken a significant step forward in advancing its Campo Grande Project in Bahia, Brazil, by commissioning GE21 Consultoria Mineral, a respected independent Brazilian mineral consultancy, to undertake a strategic technical assessment. This move signals the company’s intent to build on its existing exploration successes and prepare for more formalised resource evaluation and project development.

The scope of GE21’s work is comprehensive, encompassing a detailed review of historical exploration data, geological interpretations, drilling and sampling records, and quality assurance protocols. A technical site visit will complement this data review, allowing GE21 to assess on-the-ground conditions and infrastructure considerations critical for future development planning.

Building Towards a JORC Mineral Resource Estimate

The primary objective of this assessment is to support the preparation of a JORC-compliant Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) and a Scoping Study, which are essential milestones in advancing the project towards potential commercialisation. By verifying and consolidating existing data, GE21 will identify any gaps and recommend further work programs necessary to underpin these technical studies.

Campo Grande is a district-scale rare earth and critical minerals project that has already demonstrated encouraging results. Eminence’s reconnaissance surface sampling has returned assays as high as 17,346 ppm total rare earth oxides (TREO), with drilling intercepts confirming shallow mineralised zones. These findings underscore the project’s potential within a recognised rare earth province.

Strategic Location Adjacent to High-Grade Neighbours

The project’s location adjacent to Brazilian Rare Earths (ASX – BRE) tenements adds further strategic value. BRE’s exploration, including historical drill cores from Rio Tinto, has revealed high-grade rare earth mineralisation up to 45.7% TREO in the region, highlighting the broader corridor’s prospectivity. Eminence’s Campo Grande tenure benefits from this geological continuity and proximity to established infrastructure in Bahia State, factors that could accelerate future development.

GE21’s forthcoming technical memorandum will be a key document, summarising findings and outlining recommendations for next-stage technical and development planning. This will provide investors and stakeholders with greater clarity on the project’s readiness and potential pathways forward.

Looking Ahead

While timelines for the completion of GE21’s assessment and subsequent studies have not been disclosed, this engagement marks a pivotal moment for Eminence as it seeks to transition Campo Grande from exploration to resource definition. The company’s methodical approach and collaboration with a local expert consultancy reflect a commitment to rigorous technical standards and strategic project advancement.
