Ulysses is located ~30km south of Leonora and 200km north of Kalgoorlie, in the mineral-rich and highly prospective Eastern Goldfields of WA. It lies 30km south of the Gwalia mine and along strike from the Orient Well and Kookynie mine camps, which have produced over 0.5Moz.
Genesis acquired the Ulysses deposit in 2015 and, following initial exploration success, completed two open pit mining campaigns at the Ulysses West Pit in 2016 and 2017. Ulysses is a new shallow mine with ore just 50m below surface with 2,400oz per vertical metre. The ore body is open along strike and at depth.
Following significant preparatory work in FY23 (including intensive grade control drilling), Ulysses is ready for underground development.
