Locksley Resources has secured an option over the Iron Duke copper-gold project in New South Wales, taking the opportunity from Sky Metals. The company says the acquisition adds new drill-ready exploration targets at Iron Duke, positioning the site for further work. Across the three outlets, the reports describe the move as an option arrangement rather than a completed purchase, with Locksley gaining rights to advance the project subject to the terms of the option. The coverage also characterizes the project as a high-grade copper-gold play, reflecting the project’s perceived mineral prospectivity. The agreement brings additional focus to copper and gold exploration in NSW and indicates that Locksley is moving toward evaluation through drilling. No additional details about the option’s financial terms, timeline, or specific drilling plans are included in the shared reporting, but the sources consistently state that the deal is intended to support immediate exploration activity through drill-ready target identification.
