Bleiberg Zinc Lead Germanium Project
Strategic Importance of Germanium and Gallium
Germanium and Gallium
▪
High-Performance Logic Chips, as used in the Automotive Industry,
Wireless Technology or new generation computing, Silicon-Germanium
chips reign king.
▪
Germanium's strategic value is underscored by TSMC’s plans to increase
its use in next-gen Si-Ge chips, bolstered by China’s export restrictions.
▪
Gallium is crucial for manufacturing semiconductor wafers with superior
performance in high-frequency and heat-resistant applications.
Global Importance
1.
2.
▪
At closure, Bleiberg was the 6th largest producer of Germanium globally,
with Gallium mineralization also identified in historical workings.
▪
Both minerals are on critical mineral lists in the U.S., EU, Japan, India,
and Australia.
▪
Strategic minerals like Germanium and Gallium are critical in
technologies such as Electronic Vehicles, AI, Quantum Computing, and
High-Performance Logic Chips.

Bleiberg Zinc Lead Germanium Project
Successful Field Verification and Strategic Engagement
Historic Data Utilisation
Over 100 years of historic mining data from Bleiberg Zinc-LeadGermanium Mine successfully accessed, collated, and digitized.
The extensive data acquisition enables BM8 geologists to fast-track
exploration targeting potential extensions of known mineralization.
Multiple drill targets generated extending over a 6 km strike length
Validation of digitized historical data, including geological maps,
underground mine workings, and exploration drilling datasets. All historical
data points were located and confirmed within the exploration tenure.
