Latest Sierra Nevada Gold (ASX:SNX) News

Sierra Nevada Gold has begun mobilising a five-rig, 25,000m exploration campaign at its As Safra Copper-Gold Project in Saudi Arabia. The program will test Central Copper’s resource potential while opening up more than 12km of broader discovery targets, with first assays expected in November 2026.
