Broken Hill Operations Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of CBH Resources Limited, owns and operates the Rasp Mine.
On July 26, 2024, CBH Resources entered into a binding agreement with Broken Hill Mines Limited, which will see BHM acquire 100 percent of the mine and its assets by October 31, 2024.
The ore deposits at RASP Mine are hosted by a sequence of Proterozoic meta-sedimentary rocks.Mining operations are primarily focused on the extraction of the Western Mineralisation (WM), combined with lesser quantities of high grade remnants of 2 and 3 Lens, and Zinc Lodes that are associated with the original Main Lode.The original unmined WM contained a global resource of approximately 15Mt at a combined PbZn grade of 6.0%. However, mining operations are focused on extraction of areas of higher grade material.The WM extends from approximately 100m below the surface to a depth of near 900m, where the deposit terminates against the Globe Vauxhall Shear. Mineralisation identified below this structure is associated with the Centenary Deposit which still remains open at depth.
