Trafford Resources is a finalist in the 4th Annual Australian Mining Prospect Awards for its successful approach to exploration.

Trafford purchased the Wilcherry Hill Project as a gold project from iron ore company Aquila Resources, and listed on ASX on 19 June 2006.

The company began digitisation of immense volumes of pre-existing data.

After careful analysis of this data, the company discovered 530 drill holes had intercepted economic “iron”.

Results from the analysis was compiled, leading to the definition of a JORC compliant resource of 44 Mt.
