Ajana is a townsite within Northampton Shire. Located at the junction of Ajana-Kalbarri Road and Ajana Back Road.
The area has historically seen copper, lead and silver mining from the 1800's. While graphite was known from this time, there has been little interest in mining it. This changed when the price of graphite rose substantially around 2015, in response to a supply shortage, and uses for the material in new technologies.
The graphite tenements are located near the Galena Bridge campsite on the Murchison River north of Ajana and west of the North-West Coastal Highway. Most of the area is pastoral. It is 130 kilometres north of Geraldton.
Liberty Resources under subsidiary company Rhodes Resources has been exploring the area as of 2015. Samples from shallow pits have shown graphite at 40-50%. Graphite is abundant it states replacing sillimanite in the weathering profile of the graphite-sillimanite quartz schist. Graphite occurs as a series of bunches of parallel flakes, with a wide flake size. Some are over 1mm which are known in the graphite world as jumbo flakes. It is a mineralised belt 10 kilometres long by 3 kilometres wide, as part of the Northampton Metamorphic Complex.
