The Wallbrook mining centre is located approximately 11km South of Porphyry and 40km North of the Carosue plant, it was acquired in 2007 from Jackson Gold. The Wallbrook area consists of four known deposits, Eleven Bells, Redbrook, Red Flag, and Crusader, all within a 2km strike distance. Mineralisation at Wallbrook extends to surface and provides the plant with easily accessible oxidised material required for blending purposes. There is significant upside potential at Wallbrook with mineralisation extensions possible at depth and laterally. Saracen’s interpretation of the ore zone suggests that it is more suited to taking larger mechanised zones at a lower cut-off grade.

The current open-pit resource stands at 331koz with reserves of 66koz.

The Porphyry haul road was constructed between the Carosue Dam plant and the Porphyry pit early in 2010 and traverses to the west of Wallbrook and will provide access back to the Carosue Dam processing plant approximately 36km to the South.
