Legend Mining Uncovers Multiple Untested Anomalies at Pinnacle Well
Legend Mining has completed a comprehensive review of the Pinnacle Well Project, identifying several untested gold and base metal anomalies, while advancing exploration plans for the coming quarter.
- Settlement and data review of Pinnacle Well Project completed
- Identification of eight untested soil anomalies including gold and base metals
- Extensive geostatistical and geophysical data reprocessing undertaken
- Rockford Project JV with IGO terminated; land access negotiations ongoing
- Exploration expenditure of $478,000 with no mining production this quarter
Pinnacle Well Project – A New Frontier
Legend Mining Limited marked a significant milestone in the September 2025 quarter by settling the acquisition of the Pinnacle Well Project, located near Leonora in Western Australia’s northern goldfields. This project covers a substantial 110 square kilometres and is geologically promising for both gold and base metal mineralisation, including copper, lead, zinc, and silver.
Following settlement, Legend embarked on an extensive review of historical exploration data, including soil and rockchip sampling, geological mapping, and geophysical surveys. The company applied advanced geostatistical techniques and reprocessed aeromagnetic, radiometric, and gravity data to better understand the subsurface structures and mineralisation potential.
Untapped Anomalies Signal Exploration Potential
The data analysis revealed eight distinct anomalies – four gold, three base metal, and one hydrothermal alteration zone. These anomalies are particularly compelling as they remain largely untested by drilling, representing fresh targets for exploration. The anomalies are supported by geological features such as quartz veining, gossans, and historic gold workings, which are classic indicators of mineralisation in Archaean greenstone belts.
Legend plans to follow up with a targeted soil sampling program and geophysical surveys in the December 2025 quarter, aiming to refine drill targets. The company’s approach to identifying “blind” intrusives beneath transported cover could unlock new discoveries in this underexplored region.
Rockford Project and Corporate Updates
Meanwhile, at the Rockford Project in the Fraser Range district, statutory rehabilitation activities continued alongside ongoing negotiations for land access agreements. Notably, the joint venture with IGO was terminated in July 2025, with the surrender of the JV tenements. Legend is actively assessing new project opportunities that align with its technical strengths and corporate strategy.
On the corporate front, the company reported the lapse of 500,000 zero exercise priced options following an employee departure and the exercise of 3 million employee incentive options. Exploration expenditure for the quarter was $478,000, with no substantive mining production or development activities reported.
Looking Ahead
Legend Mining’s methodical approach to data review and anomaly identification at Pinnacle Well sets the stage for a potentially transformative exploration campaign. The company’s focus on untested targets and structural controls of mineralisation could yield significant results in the coming quarters.
Bottom Line?
Legend Mining’s next exploration steps at Pinnacle Well will be crucial in translating promising anomalies into tangible resources.
Questions in the middle?
- Will the upcoming soil sampling and geophysical surveys confirm the extent of the identified anomalies?
- How will the termination of the IGO JV impact Legend’s strategy and resource allocation at Rockford?
- What new project opportunities is Legend considering to complement its existing portfolio?
