Send us a textAlexander Scanlon takes us deep into Barton Gold's ambitious plans to transform South Australia's central Gawler Craton into a major gold producing region. As Managing Director and CEO, Alex outlines how the company has meticulously built a 1.7 million ounce resource platform and secured the region's only processing mill to create a compelling two-stage development strategy.The conversation reveals the remarkable economics behind their flagship Tunkillia project, where recent optimization work has delivered stunning financial projections. With projected operating free cash flow of $2.7 billion over eight years and an incredibly fast payback period, Alex explains how they've engineered a project that generates approximately $1.3 billion in just the first two years of operation. This front-loaded cash flow profile creates exceptional financing flexibility and dramatically reduces development risk.What distinguishes Barton's approach is their commitment to innovation and sustainability with detailed plans for implementing a renewables-powered microgrid that simultaneously reduces costs, lowers carbon footprint, and hedges against energy price volatility - potentially making Barton the first mining operation in South Australia to employ this technology at scale. The discussion also explores their unexpected ultra-high-grade silver discovery at Tolmer, where intersections reaching 17,600 grams per ton hint at significant additional upside beyond their established gold resources.Listen now to understand why this emerging Australian gold developer presents one of the most compelling growth stories in the precious metals sector today.
