Minfocus has three groups of mineral claims within the Whitesand traditional
territory known as the Weese Luella, Sim lake and Witchwood River Properties,
The Weese-Luella property has been subjected to several historic exploration
programs including drilling which revealed copper and nickel mineralisation
associated with rocks which could host platinum group elements. The other two
properties were acquired due to their geologic similarity but have no records of
prior work.
