Latest Ore Resources (ASX:OR3) News

Ore Resources has accelerated its lithium exploration and development at Coolgardie with diamond and RC drilling programs, alongside advancing economic studies and permitting efforts.

Big moves came from small and mid-cap names tied to drilling, project studies and fresh funding. Healthcare, mining and takeover stocks all had a busy week, but not every strong announcement held its gains.

A handful of small-cap names posted big weekly swings, but the bigger story was a flood of new studies, resource upgrades and funding deals across gold, rare earths and battery materials. Investors chased scale and near-term production, while several raisings and gap-down reopenings showed how quickly early enthusiasm can fade.

Ore Resources Ltd has revealed new assay results from a 3,300m RC drilling program at its Kangaroo Hills Lithium Project, confirming significant extensions at the Big Red and Potoroo pegmatites and advancing near-term commercialisation options.

A brutal sell-off in a few small caps sat alongside takeover bids, fresh capital raisings and strong gains in medtech. The week split the market in two: buyers chased clear funding and approval news, while weaker stories sank fast after reopening.

Big price swings hit the materials board as deal news, capital raisings and resource updates pulled stocks in opposite directions. Gold M&A stayed busy, while critical minerals names kept feeding the market with drilling, testwork and project studies.

Ore Resources’ Phase 4 diamond drilling at the Forrest prospect reveals significant strike and depth extensions, expanding the gold system to over 1km strike and 250m depth, with further growth potential identified by geophysical surveys.

Ore Resources has secured an option to acquire six tenements adjacent to its Miriam Gold Project, expanding its landholding along the Miriam Shear Zone and reviving interest in underexplored historical gold prospects.

Gold stories drove the week, but the biggest jumps came from drill hits and project studies that gave investors a reason to chase smaller names. At the larger end, merger activity and fresh funding kept attention on producers that want to get bigger, faster.

Ore Resources (ASX: OR3) has kicked off a 3,000m reverse circulation drilling campaign at its Coolgardie Lithium Projects, targeting strike extensions and infill at the Big Red and Potoroo pegmatites. The program follows strong historical lithium intercepts and promising metallurgical testwork, with results due in June 2026.

Ore Resources (ASX: OR3) has expanded high-grade gold mineralisation at its Forrest prospect through Phase 3 and Phase 4 drilling, while significantly growing its landholdings in the Eastern Goldfields. The company is well funded with A$9.6 million cash, preparing for a busy exploration season with assay results due in May.

Ore Resources has confirmed a 60-metre extension of gold mineralisation at its Forrest prospect, part of the Miriam Gold Project, underpinning a multi-lode system open in multiple directions. Diamond drilling assays are due in early May, promising further clarity on deeper targets.
