Our
Focus on Mutually Beneficial Outcomes
Walkabout Resources (ASX:WKT) seeks to discover and develop high quality mineral deposits of materials needed by the world as it transitions to a low carbon economy.
Optimising the profitability of our mineral endowments, not maximising their size is a strategic focus of the Company. With greater profitability comes greater capacity to benefit all stakeholders, while minimising the impacts of our activities.
We intend to operate with and as a part of our host communities, not as a visitor.
Market Snapshot
Our Strategic Choices
In practical terms, optimising the returns from a modest size high-margin mine allows:
Minimised investment risk and maximised shareholder returns.
Walkabout Resources reduces investor risk by pinpointing economically robust, high quality deposits of strategically important minerals such as graphite, gold, base metals and lithium.
In order to maximise returns, we only pursue development opportunities of superior quality. This enables long-term shareholders to own a greater share of said returns.
Our flagship Lindi Jumbo graphite project contains the highest-grade reported ore reserve in Africa.
Low development timeframes, conservative operating costs and 100% lease ownership also contribute towards risk reduction at the Lindi Jumbo site, which has been independently verified as the second highest margin graphite project in the world.
On a managerial level, close ties to government and business communities in-country ensure an environment of mutual cooperation, further creating the conditions for positive results from all development projects.
Investment in sustainability.
Walkabout Resources is committed to sustainability in all operations. We adhere to best practice industry standards for environmental protection, working with in-country partners to reduce emissions and mitigate the environmental impacts of our exploration and development activities.
Our social sustainability goals are backed by lasting links with local communities. Where possible, we hire staff and service providers in-country, investing in ongoing training and professional development to ensure a net-positive impact. When planning and assessing projects, we contextualise each of the 17 UN sustainable development goals, creating site-specific benchmarks against which to measure our progress.
In all operations, we seek to embed ourselves in the communities in which we operate. This, combined with undertaking only modest activities, enables local communities to benefit from our presence.
The lithium and graphite deposits developed by Walkabout Resources represent a further investment in sustainability due to their use in electric car batteries and renewable energy storage, together with a comparatively low cost of extraction and processing.
Investment in a sustainable future for mining.
Walkabout Resources operates with a view to providing shareholder returns long into the future.
This is done through investing in economically proven minerals such as base metals and gold, while expanding into battery metals like lithium and graphite with high projected growth.
Our diverse portfolio of stable exploration and developing projects enables confidence on continuity of activity in all parts of the price cycle from both staff and suppliers.
These investments promote sustainable change and economic development, ensuring a prosperous future for both Walkabout Resources shareholders and the wider community.
