Latest Assay Results News

Argent Minerals has intersected visible gold in two apparently unmined quartz veins beneath historic workings during the second hole of its maiden Trunkey Creek drilling program. The encouraging visual result remains unquantified until photon assay results establish the grades and true widths.

Kaili Resources has reported a peak one-metre assay of 1,125.51 ppm total rare earth oxides from shallow aircore drilling at its Coodalya tenement in South Australia. The result adds to an emerging zone of elevated values, but the early-stage program has not yet established continuity, scale or economic significance.

Breakthrough Minerals has extended copper-gold mineralisation beyond the existing Turpentine resource model, with the northernmost hole returning 5 metres at 3.75% CuEq. A dedicated RC rig is due to resume drilling next week as the company tests how far the system continues.

Tivan has won approval to add 50 square kilometres to its Baucau copper-gold project in Timor-Leste, securing ground over a large magnetic anomaly. The expansion comes as the company acknowledges an executive chairman’s personal X post previewed an assay announcement before ASX release and was not authorised under its disclosure policy.

Gold Mountain has returned thick, shallow rare earth intersections at Capivara, including 8 metres at 1,513 ppm TREO, while several auger holes ended near mineralisation. The company now plans deeper drilling to determine whether the strongest results continue through the saprolite profile.

AuKing Mining has approved planning for an approximately 1,000-metre diamond hole at its Tundulu Rare Earths Project in Malawi. The hole will test the depth of the carbonatite system at Nathace Hill after strong initial RC results and two deep diamond intersections.

Everest Metals has started a 6,000-metre drilling campaign at Revere while commissioning a Scoping Study targeted for March quarter 2027. A separate $150,000 cash and share transaction would lift EMC’s stated joint venture interest to 56% and halve a royalty burden over selected tenements.

McLaren Minerals has reported broad, near-surface heavy mineralisation from 61 holes at its Western Australian titanium project, led by 24 metres at 7.54% HM. The results strengthen the dataset for a resource update, but do not yet establish an Ore Reserve or project economics.

Broken Hill Gold has started a 48 line-kilometre induced polarisation survey and 670 line-kilometre magnetic program at White Dam, targeting sulphide mineralisation beneath existing oxide prospects. A second diamond rig is also mobilising, but the next value test remains firmly in the ground: geophysical anomalies must translate into drilling results and an upgraded resource.

Evolution Energy Minerals has moved its Chikundo Copper Project from surface exploration to subsurface testing, with a 3,350-metre reverse circulation campaign now underway in southern Tanzania. The programme will first target the Malachite Pit and main Chikundo anomaly before optional holes assess three additional prospects.

Cyprium Metals has begun acid commissioning at its Nifty heap leach pads for the first time since 2009, bringing its copper restart into the operational phase. The company now expects first cathode production in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to energisation, wet commissioning and ramp-up.

Kalgoorlie Gold Mining has secured A$2.3 million through a placement and launched a fully underwritten A$1.1 million entitlement offer to fund exploration at its Pinjin Gold Project. The capital will target new drilling at the Lighthorse discovery, where earlier assays included high-grade gold within broader mineralised intervals.
