Aston Minerals Limited historically focused on the identification, exploration, and assessment of mineral assets across Canada, Australia, Indonesia, and Europe. The company primarily sought deposits of nickel, cobalt, copper, and gold. Its principal Canadian asset was the Edleston gold and nickel project, situated south of Timmins, Ontario, which included a substantial gold resource and the Boomerang nickel-cobalt sulphide system. Additionally, the company maintained interests in the Dobsina Project in Slovakia, the Jouhineva Project in Finland, and various Swedish initiatives. Incorporated in 2010 and headquartered in Subiaco, Australia, the entity was formerly known as European Cobalt Limited before adopting its current name in May 2017. As of May 29, 2025, Aston Minerals Limited was acquired by Torque Metals Limited through a scheme of arrangement, subsequently leading to its delisting from the ASX on June 10, 2025. The merger established a combined gold exploration entity with projects in Western Australia and Ontario, Canada.
