Minerals exploration and development will go ahead on the Carrapateena Prospect, located 100kms South East of Olympic Dam and 130 kms North of Port Augusta, on the eastern margin of the Gawler Craton following the signing of a native title agreement between Kokatha Unwankara native title holders and OZ Minerals Carrapateena Pty Ltd.
The Deed of Acknowledgement and Assumption marks the agreement between the parties to allow for the on-going exploration and development of the Carrapateena Prospect. The new Deed amends an existing agreement and supersedes and replicates previous agreements, dating back to early 2006, between Teck Australia Pty Ltd, The Kokatha Uwnakara native title claimants and formerly overlapping native title claim groups.
