Goldminco NL WAS a relatively new and small gold exploration company similar to Fortuna and others. It mainly concentrated on gold properties in Victoria, although it recently established a uranium and lead/zinc/silver Joint Venture at Curnamona, SA, with Paladin Resources and Black Range Minerals.Due to the protracted commodities market, in mid 1999, they abandoned the exploration game along with some fellow mineral explorers and reshaped themselves as a telecommunications / internet company - "Datafast Telecommunications Ltd"..... the exploration interests of Goldminco are to be sold in the near future, although they have kept a 1% royalty on their SA uranium project for the time being.
