Cobungra Drilling Yields 4m at 0.5 g/t Gold and 6 g/t Silver in Initial Assays
Infinity Metals has reported initial assay results from its December 2025 drilling at the Cobungra Gold-Silver Project, confirming a significant strike of mineralisation connecting key prospects. The findings reveal moderate gold and silver grades, reinforcing the project's exploration potential.
- Initial assays from December 2025 RC drilling at Cobungra received
- Mineralisation confirmed linking Comstock and Forsyth prospects on Ensay Shear Zone
- Moderate gold and silver grades intersected, including 4m @ 0.5 g/t Au and 4m @ 6 g/t Ag
- Historical high-grade results at Forsyth prospect reaffirmed
- Further 1m sample assays underway to refine mineralisation understanding
Initial Drilling Success at Cobungra
Infinity Metals Limited has unveiled promising initial assay results from its recent Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling program at the Cobungra Gold-Silver Project in northern Victoria. Conducted in December 2025, the drilling focused on the Comstock (CST) Prospect and has confirmed a significant strike of mineralisation within the tenement, linking it with other nearby prospects along the Ensay Shear Zone.
The Ensay Shear Zone, a key structural feature on the edge of the Cobungra Granite, is known for hosting gold and silver mineralisation. Infinity’s drilling intersected moderate grades, including notable intercepts such as 4 metres at 0.5 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 4 metres at 6 g/t silver. These results, while modest, are encouraging given the early stage of exploration and the potential for extensions along strike.
Linking Historical and New Discoveries
Importantly, the new drilling results connect the Comstock Prospect with the Forsyth Prospect, located approximately 2 kilometres along strike. Historical diamond drilling at Forsyth in 2011-12 returned high-grade gold and silver intercepts, including 5.35 metres at 4.7 g/t gold and 334 g/t silver, with some intervals reaching even higher grades. These past results underscore the potential for significant mineralisation continuity across the region.
Infinity Metals is currently submitting 1-metre individual samples from composite samples that showed anomalous grades, aiming to better define the mineralisation and guide future exploration efforts. The company’s approach aligns with industry best practices and complies with the JORC 2012 reporting standards, ensuring transparency and reliability of the data.
Strategic Positioning in the Lachlan Fold Belt
The Cobungra Project sits within the northern Victorian portion of the Lachlan Fold Belt, a prolific mineralised region that includes the nearby Cassilis gold mine operated by ABA Resources. Infinity’s acquisition and exploration activities here reflect a strategic effort to capitalise on the region’s known mineral endowment. Despite a lull in exploration sentiment post-2012, Infinity’s renewed drilling program signals a potential resurgence in interest and activity.
While the initial grades are moderate, the confirmation of mineralisation continuity and the geological setting provide a solid foundation for further work. The company’s ongoing assessment of exploration opportunities at Cobungra will be closely watched by investors and industry observers alike.
Bottom Line?
Infinity Metals’ latest drilling results at Cobungra mark a promising step, but the next assays and follow-up work will be critical to unlocking the project’s true potential.
Questions in the middle?
- Will the upcoming 1m sample assays reveal higher-grade zones within the composite intervals?
- How will Infinity Metals prioritise follow-up drilling to expand mineralisation along the Ensay Shear Zone?
- What are the implications of these results for potential resource estimation and project economics?
