London DE Group backs pioneering Australian gold and REE project

London DE Group is proud to announce our role as funding partners in an exciting new mining initiative in New South Wales, Australia. In collaboration with Broula King Enterprises (BKE), we are establishing a state-of-the-art gold and Rare Earth Elements (REE) processing plant near the historic mining town of Goulburn.

This ambitious project will breathe new life into dormant artisanal and small-scale mines across NSW, many of which have been inactive for decades. By enabling the recommissioning of these sites, the project will not only unlock valuable precious commodities, but also deliver on our core values.

Together with BKE, we are ensuring the project develops only on land free of indigenous rights concerns. We are also working closely with the NSW government to remediate the toxic legacies of abandoned mines, where pollutants such as arsenic and cyanide continue to threaten ecosystems.

BKE’s subsidiary, Ecotech, is partnering with Newcastle and Deakin Universities to pioneer clean and responsible extraction methods for gold and REEs. This approach safeguards the natural environment while creating high-value skilled employment for local communities. Once operations are complete, each site will be carefully rehabilitated, restoring land to its natural state and free from toxic waste.

In what we believe to be a world first for the SME mining sector, machine learning AI is being deployed to create a digital twin of each site. This technology will uncover key efficiencies, optimise operations, and maximise the positive outcomes of the project.

This partnership once again highlights the powerful synergies across London DE Group’s global operations. By combining innovation, sustainability, and ethical practice, we hope to bring our purposeful vision to mining operations of the future.

Phase two of development will launch in early 2026 with gold extraction from existing tailings marking the start of production.
