News: Strategic Elements to explore Western Australia with Dr Franco Pirajno

Strategic Elements (ASX:SOR) has revealed a collaboration with Dr Franco Pirajno to conduct frontier exploration in Western Australia.

Pirajno is one of Western Australia’s most respected economic geologists who recently retired after 21 years with the Western Australian government.

Pirajno has extensive experience mapping and studying mineral systems in many different countries around the world and is well qualified to oversee the technical team.

Large areas of Western Australia remain virtually unexplored in terms of mineral potential and the company believes that exploration of these frontier areas with different models of mineralisation provides the best chance for making a significant new discovery.

Pirajno commented: “Western Australia is well endowed with world-class mineral deposits, such as those in the Eastern Goldfields, the Pilbara and in the Kimberley block.

"There remains however large swaths of land where the potential for different styles of mineral deposits may not have been fully considered, such as sedimentary basins with good potential for base metals, cobalt and uranium."
