Mt Monger Resources (ASX:MTM) reports 4 exploration licence applications to extend gold and TREO exploration at the East Laverton Gold Project have been granted by the Western Australian Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS).
Exploration licence E38/3507 is about 30km northeast of Laverton and expands the area held over the Pt Kidman rare earth element (REE) prospect where Monger has recently reported ‘encouraging’ aircore (AC) drilling results that show ‘significant’ TREO grades over a broad area.
The company is currently undertaking soil sampling in this part of the East Laverton project and will immediately extend the program to include the newly granted area

Exploration licences E38/3509, E39/2218 and E39/2219 are located approximately 120km to the east and southeast of the township of Laverton and cover the Company’s Dexter prospect areas, along the known gold mineralised Dexter Shear Zone and the interpreted intersection with the Yamana Shear Zone.
‘Extensive younger’ cover obscured the bedrock and historical exploration of the area is limited.
The company is currently negotiating a heritage agreement over the Dexter tenement areas with the Traditional Owners and intends to extend its current exploration program at the East Laverton project to include the new licences when this is completed.
