Viable project
Richmond Vanadium is an Australian minerals company focused on advancing its 100%-owned Richmond-Julia Creek Vanadium Project in North Queensland.
The 1.8-billion-tonne project has demonstrated technical and financial viability through a completed pre-feasibility study and a provisional patent application for the concentration of vanadium.
The company is currently conducting a bankable feasibility study and progressing approvals for the project, which is strategically located near existing infrastructure in Queensland.
The Richmond-Julia Creek Project was declared a Coordinated Project by the Queensland Government in May 2022, making it the first critical minerals project to receive this status.
Its mineral resource covers three main prospects – Lilyvale, Manfred and Rothbury – across five tenements.
