RIM - Rimfire Pacific Mining

Almost ten years since the last post in this thread. Long time between drinks.

Some promising assay results released today with three of the drill holes ending in mineralisation. They may have just scratched the surface at the Avondale Project. Time will tell. Lots more drilling to do.

Not much cash left in the bank, so a cap raise needs to happen soon.

And movement at the station:
This $24m market cap company says it will regain full control of the Broken Hill Cobalt Project following notice from Perilya – wholly owned subsidiary of China’s Zhongjin Lingnan Mining – of its intention to withdraw from the Windy Ridge joint venture.

Perilya’s withdrawal will become effective upon fulfilling its rehabilitation obligations during the September quarter, meaning RIM will hold 100% of the project.

The Broken Hill Cobalt Project is prospective for the discovery of economic critical minerals such as cobalt with several priority targets already identified including the Railway Extension target, which lies directly along strike from Cobalt Blue Holdings’ (ASX:COB) Railway cobalt deposit.

RIM is currently pursuing regulatory approvals to enable commencement of exploration activities on the project.

Nothing to post about until Oct 23 when the weekly HVBB indicated that demand for RIM had perked up. Since then demand has been persistent.
the focus seems to be narrowing , but just how many plays can be kept in the backpack? ... 3.3c

Rimfire’s Managing Director Mr
David Hutton said:
Rimfire is focused on exploring for critical minerals that are associated with global decarbonisation strategies. Globally, western governments and advanced manufacturers are looking to secure long term supplies of critical minerals such as scandium from stable political jurisdictions, at quantities many times the current annual global production. Rimfire believes that our Fifield and Avondale Projects offer significant opportunities for these groups both in terms of deposit size and grade.

2024 is shaping up as a pivotal year for Rimfire and its shareholders with multiple programs across a range of critical minerals commencing with
aggressive scandium – focussed drilling programs at Murga and Melrose ”.
