Cape Alumina （ASX: CBX） has lodged Mineral Lease Application （MLA） 20676 with the Queensland Government’s mining registrar following reconnaissance sampling and scout auger drilling conducted over the past few months.
This new MLA lies within the company’s Exploration Permit for Minerals （EPMs） 15376 and 16899, which are in Queensland’s western Cape York region approximately 100 kilometres north of Weipa.
Cape Alumina has identified six prospective zones within a dissected lateritic plateau between the Ducie and Skardon rivers, which the Company is calling Bauxite Hills.

Preparations are underway to complete cultural heritage surveys and establish access for drilling on MLA 20676 to be undertaken in the 2011 field season.
In addition, negotiations are underway for access agreements covering EPM15374 and EPM16988 to allow access for drilling in 2011.
