Forrestania Resources Ltd (ASX: FRS) is a Western Australian rapidly growing gold exploration and development company building a portfolio of gold projects across the Forrestania, Southern Cross and Eastern Goldfields regions. Forrestania’s portfolio comprises a combined gold Mineral Resource of approximately
1,007,800 ounces1, with access to processing infrastructure under construction at Lake Johnston. The Company recently achieved a first ore milestone at its British Hill deposit.

Led by a refreshed and experienced board, Forrestania is strategically expanding its footprint across the Southern Cross, Eastern Goldfields and Forrestania regions through disciplined exploration, selective acquisitions and a commitment to unlocking the broader potential of these highly prospective belts. Forrestania is advancing towards gold production, initially via the wholly-owned Lake Johnston processing facility which was acquired by the Company in late CY 2025. In the Southern Cross district, the Company is advancing a strategy to define significant gold resources that can support long-term development opportunities.

Forrestania Resources is dedicated to creating shareholder value through systematic exploration, strong technical execution and a focused approach to growing its gold asset base across Western Australia.

Reporting to the General Manager, the Processing Manager will initially split their time between the Perth office and our Lake Johnston Operation, supporting project development and operational readiness.
