Evergold Minerals has identified a new shallow gold-mineralised zone 600m northwest of the Duchess of York main zone in Western Australia. The Vanguard discovery will now be tested through resource-definition RC drilling planned for October.

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.

Aureka Resources has reported high-grade gold mineralisation beyond the current inferred resource at its Irvine project in Victoria, including a 4.74g/t intercept at depth and the first significant results from a 2km gap between established lodes. The results expand the exploration story, but remain early-stage drilling data with further assays pending.

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.

AngloGold Ashanti has completed a 2,659-sample soil geochemistry program at EcoGraf’s Golden Eagle project in Tanzania, with results now pending ahead of a planned drilling phase. The work forms part of a US$9 million farm-in while EcoGraf prepares separate exploration across a broader portfolio of gold and critical-minerals targets.

Raptor Metals has identified two conductive systems across its Chester copper project, including the strongest off-hole response recorded near a high-grade drill intersection. The results give the company specific targets for follow-up drilling, but the conductors remain exploration targets rather than a resource estimate.

Auris Minerals has identified potential strike extensions to gold mineralisation at Jacques East and returned further anomalous results at Frenchys South from 22 air core holes. The more decisive test now shifts to more than 100 one-metre samples intended to reveal whether the composite grades conceal higher-grade, nuggety zones.

North Stawell Minerals has used a conference presentation to position Darlington and Darlington West as its leading tests of the Stawell gold model, while outlining a broader Victorian exploration pipeline. The company stresses that the drilling results and resource figures presented have been previously reported, making follow-up work rather than a fresh discovery the key investor question.

CGN Resources has intersected gold at three of four targets in its maiden Christmas Well RC program, with Rocky Mountain Oyster returning the strongest result in fresh rock. The early-stage campaign supports follow-up drilling, but does not yet establish a mineral resource or confirm true widths.

Golden Horse Minerals has expanded the interpreted Hopes Hill gold system beyond 3 kilometres after completing 52,762 metres of drilling in the six months to June 30. The exploration push delivered multiple high-grade intersections and free-milling metallurgy, but came with no revenue, a $4.37 million loss and a sharp drawdown in cash.

Westar Resources has identified three high-priority gold targets at its Jerrys Bore project after analysing 1,167 UltraFine+ soil samples. The anomalies coincide with gold pathfinder elements and interpreted structures, but drilling is still needed to establish whether buried mineralisation exists.

Golden Mile Resources says follow-up surface sampling has expanded the exposed Aurora gold anomaly in Arizona to at least 280 metres wide and 450 metres along strike. The results strengthen the case for drilling, although the prospect remains an early-stage, undrilled target with open boundaries.
