According to Varun Industries, preliminary investigations have indicated the presence of alluvial sediments containing both gold and platinum. After initial evaluation, the focus of the joint venture would be to carry out a detailed mapping assessment of this area, with Cluff providing Australian geologists and applying its technology, said the company in a regulatory filing.
