Program
The Exploration & Tenures Forum brings together the NSW exploration sector for a focused program on successful exploration and development projects in the region.
The forum offers an opportunity to hear from the NSW Government on current policy and regulatory updates, as well as from industry practitioners, academics, and specialist consultants on key issues such as land access, community consultation, and best practices in exploration.
The full 2025 program will be available in February.

Alkane Resources is an Australian exploration, development and gold production company, with tenements, projects and operations in Central West NSW. The company aims to grow into a multi-mine gold and copper producer.
Current gold production is from Tomingley Gold Operations, an open pit and underground gold mine southwest of Dubbo, currently being extended to beyond 2030. Alkane continues to advance gold exploration projects in the tenement area south of Tomingley.
Alkane discovered porphyry gold-copper mineralisation at Boda, north of Wellington, in 2019. The company has since estimated two large resources (Boda and Kaiser) that represent a genuine prospect for a large-tonnage gold-copper development.
