About us.
Moonlight Resources was established to recognise and realise the potential in undervalued and dormant assets through aggressive, results-focused exploration.
Our Mission
To deliver long-term value to shareholders through identifying valuable mineral deposits by applying modern exploration techniques to highly prospective under-explored mineral provinces.
We apply modern exploration techniques to historically active targets for minerals that are critical to the modern global economy, including gold and energy-transition materials like uranium and rare earth elements.
Core Objectives
Our activities are focused on Australia’s premier mining regions , which offer high potential for significant discoveries and supportive regulatory pathways. We are committed to maximizing in-ground expenditure to deliver shareholder value, maintaining low corporate overheads to ensure capital is directed efficiently towards discovery.
Key Project Development
To rapidly define a maiden gold Mineral Resource at our flagship Clermont Project in Queensland, creating a pathway to a potential future development hub.
