Central Iron Ore Limited
Central Iron Ore Limited (TSXV:CIO) -- a legacy company name; the company is a gold explorer/developer, not an iron ore producer -- holds a 100% interest in the South Darlot Gold Project (324 sq km, Kalgoorlie region, Western Australia), within 10 km of Red 5's Darlot mine. Its core asset is the wholly-owned British King Mine, which carries an NI 43-101 Mineral Resource (technical report filed 23 Oct 2025) of 120,000 indicated tonnes at 5.1 g/t Au plus 50,000 inferred tonnes at 2.9 g/t Au. A second deposit, the British King Extensions, is held via the 70%-owned South Darlot Joint Venture and carries a separate resource of 70,000 indicated tonnes at 3.4 g/t Au plus 20,000 inferred tonnes. Resource-expansion RC drilling (78 holes over a 9-week campaign) was underway as of mid-2026, alongside British King/Endeavour re-optimisation studies and environmental permitting work.
Lifecycle Milestones
A relative ranking of how closely this company matches the profile of juniors that have actually been acquired — not a probability, and not a reason to buy. Acquisitions are rare: only a few dozen significant deals happen a year across a universe of thousands of juniors, so even a high score here describes a long shot. The strongest signal the underlying research identifies — whether a major already holds a JV, earn-in, or 5–19.9% strategic stake — isn't tracked yet and is absent from this score.
