Resources

At Constellation Resources we are focused on exploring
and responsibly developing copper, gold, nickel, and natural hydrogen,
each of which plays a vital role in the global energy transition.

Our commitment is to unlock the potential
of these resources to support innovation, economic growth, and a sustainable future.

At Constellation Resources, we are focused on exploring and responsibly developing copper, gold, nickel, and white hydrogen, each of which plays a vital role in the global energy transition.

Our commitment is to responsibly unlock the potential of these resources to support innovation, economic growth, and a sustainable future.

Copper

The value of copper in today’s market is significant, and is expected to continue growing, driven by the critical role this metal plays in the global transition to clean energy and electrification.

Copper is essential for renewable energy systems, electric vehicles (EVs), energy storage, and electrical infrastructure due to its excellent conductivity.

As demand for these technologies surge, and the global supply of copper continues to decline, the outlook for copper remains strong.

Gold

Gold has long played a meaningful role in contributing to a Nation’s economic future. As a stable store of value, gold supports financial resilience and diversification, especially during periods of economic uncertainty.

As one of the Australia’s largest export commodities, gold plays a significant role in our economy.

Moreover, advancements in technology are increasing gold’s use in clean technologies, such as in renewable energy systems and electronics, due to its superior conductivity and corrosion resistance.

Nickel

Nickel is essential for producing stainless steel and batteries, making it integral to the rapidly growing renewable energy sector.

Nickel is also a strategic resource for Australia. Domestic exploration and production reduces our reliance on foreign supplies, particularly those regions with higher geo-political risks.

Additionally, Australia has a regulatory framework to support environmentally sustainable mining. This means nickel produced in Australia often has a lower environmental impact than in other parts of the world.

As the world moves towards greener energy, the need for sustainably sourced nickel increases, positioning Australia as a major supplier to global markets.

Natural Hydrogen

Natural hydrogen, also known as white, gold or geologic hydrogen, has the potential to revolutionise global energy markets due to its numerous advantages over existing energy options.

Unlike hydrogen produced from fossil fuels, geologic hydrogen is naturally occurring.

It is primarily created when water interacts with ultra-mafic rocks that are rich in iron and magnesium. These rocks are in the earth’s mantle (the layer between the earth’s crust and core). The process is called serpentization. The water oxidises the iron in the rocks and this produces hydrogen.

Due to its formation occurring naturally, geologic hydrogen has significantly lower production costs and carbon emissions.

Constellation Resources has secured one of the largest prospective areas for natural hydrogen in Western Australia, covering 87,000 square kilometres.

Hydrogen Economics - High Margin/Low Capital

Current sell price H2 ~ US$9 kg,
Current production price white H2 ~ US$2 kg

Hydrogen production cost ranges 2022-2023, $US

White hydrogen is a high margin, low capital resource.
It is currently produced at US $2kg and sold at US $9/kg.
This compares very favourably to the profit margins of green, blue and grey hydrogen.

Green Hydrogen

Made by using renewable energy to electrolyse water. H2 seperated from H2O. Production is expensive

<1.0kg CO2e per kg H2#

Blue Hydrogen

Made from natural gas.
H2 separated from CH4.
Carbon emissions captured.

-3.0kg CO2e per kg H2#

Grey Hydrogen

Made from natural gas.
H2 separated from CH4.
Carbon emissions not captured.

-9.0kg CO2e per kg H2#

White (Natural) Hydrogen

Naturally occurring,
found in the subsurface.

Hydrogen made underground.

<1.0kg CO2e per kg H2

* Geologic hydrogen (white) has a carbon intensity of 0.37 kg CO2e per kilogram of hydrogen when including the embodied emissions of the well casing and hydrogen emissions, according to a published paper in Joule by Stanford’s Dr. Adam Brandt.
Numerous ranges of production costs exist due to changing variables such as, but not limited to, technology advancement, existing infrastructure, feedstock price etc Source: Ranges sourced from BloombergNEF, IEA, Lazard, IRENA. ‘At the dawn of a hydrogen era’, Clota Varde Feb 2023

Across all scenarios, clean hydrogen demand is expected to escalate whilst grey hydrogen demand is expected to decline.
