One of the world's premier mining jurisdictions, Australia has been a global leader in mineral exploration and extraction for well over a century.  Boasting some of the most richly endowed mineral provinces in the world, Australia is known as a global leader in exploration and mining.

With ready access to an experienced, skilled labour force, strong rule of law and mostly supportive governments, Australia is solid exploration and mining location.

Downsides to exploring in Australia are increasingly onerous legislation and long lead times on turning exploration projects into mines.  However, this can vary by state. Although the labour force is experienced and skilled, there are often shortages of key personnel and labour costs can be high.

Australia has been heavily explored for a long time but discoveries continue to be made and recent years have seen Australia emerge as the wold's number 1 hard rock lithium location which adds to its globally significant production of Iron Ore, Gold, Coal, Bauxite, Zinc, Nickel, Copper and many more.  Access to exploration databases, often large, is generally publicly available meaning your ability to extract relevant information from a data rich environment very important.

Although our head office is located in South America, Lamington Resources holds exploration projects in Australia in addition to having a number of associated consultants based in the land down under.
