Company Profile

Fenix Resources (ASX:FEX) is an exploration company focussing on the development of its 100% owned Iron Ridge high grade hematite project, located in the Mid-West of Western Australia.

The project has a current resource of 5 million tonnes at 64.1 per cent iron ore and Fenix’s goal is to increase the Iron Ridge resource up to 8 to 10 million tonnes at 65 per cent iron ore, which attracts a premium price.
