Conquest Mining was a mining company based in Australia.[1] In September 2010, it bought a 40% stake in the Pajingo mine in northern Queensland. Conquest is also developing a silver-gold-copper resource at Silver Hill[2] and is involved in a number of other goldmining projects.[3] The executive chairman is Jake Klein.[4]
In late 2011 Conquest Mining Ltd merged with Catalpa Resources Ltd to form a mid-tier Australian gold producer, Evolution Mining.[5]
Mount Carlton
Conquest signed a $1 billion offtake deal (for the largest deposit at Mount Carlton) with Shandong Guoda Gold, one of the largest gold smelters in China.[6]
Total resources at Mt Carlton are now estimated to be 1.27 million ounces of gold, 40.6 million ounces of silver, and 71,800 tonnes of copper.[2]
