Surefire Resources hopes what it says is a “unique” high-purity alumina (HPA) deposit will lead to lucrative value-adding rewards from its flagship Victory Bore vanadium project, 400km inland from the WA port city of Geraldton. Early sample results from waste rock surrounding the company’s high-grade vanadium deposit have returned grades of up to 31 per cent aluminium oxide. The grades are comparable to those gleaned from Worsley Alumina’s bauxite operations in the State’s South West.
