Latest Australian Mining Projects News

C29 Metals has exited its Kazakhstan operations to focus on advancing its Mayfield Copper & Gold Project in Queensland, securing a three-year exploration license extension and confirming strong geological potential.

Adavale Resources has launched its first-ever drilling campaign at the London Victoria Gold Mine, aiming to expand its existing gold resource and explore high-grade vein potential near the historic Koh-I-Nor mine.

Antipa Minerals reports significant new high-grade gold-copper mineralisation at its Minyari Gold-Copper Project in Western Australia, with early assay results confirming resource growth and new discoveries.

Infinity Mining has identified a promising new gold target at its Cangai Project in northern NSW, reviving interest in the historically rich Sir Walter Scott Gold prospect. The discovery is supported by historical assays and modern LiDAR mapping, setting the stage for upcoming exploration.

Ardea Resources has completed its infill drilling at the Highway nickel-cobalt deposit, delivering thick, high-grade intercepts that bolster the Kalgoorlie Nickel Project’s development prospects. These results underpin an updated resource estimate and support a front-loaded production profile.

Catalyst Metals reports positive infill drilling results at its Trident Gold Project, confirming expected mineralisation and enabling development to commence with first ore targeted in late 2025.

Adavale Resources has been granted exploration license EL9785, including the high-grade Koh-I-Noor gold mine, adjacent to its Parkes Project in NSW. The company plans detailed exploration and a maiden drilling campaign in 2025 to unlock further mineral potential.

Avira Resources has completed the acquisition of a new exploration licence, expanding its Tangadee Project in Western Australia to three granted licences targeting copper-zinc and copper-nickel sulphide deposits. The company plans a field assessment in June 2025 to evaluate promising geophysical targets and engage with native title parties.

New Frontier Minerals has secured $1.59 million in funding to launch its inaugural drilling campaign targeting heavy rare earth elements, niobium, and uranium at the Harts Range Project, aligning with favorable US policies on supply chain diversification and nuclear energy.

Litchfield Minerals has revealed compelling assay results from its Phase 1 drilling at the Oonagalabi Project, confirming a large polymetallic copper-zinc system alongside a newly identified gold-silver-bismuth mineralisation linked to the Bomb Diggity magnetic intrusion.

Cannindah Resources has confirmed two untested porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum targets outside its existing 14.5Mt Mineral Resource at Mt Cannindah, revealing promising high-grade surface samples and setting the stage for deeper drilling.

Critica Limited has initiated bulk metallurgical testwork on a 400 kg sample from its Jupiter Deposit, aiming to refine rare earth element beneficiation and explore by-product opportunities. The project holds over 280,000 tonnes of heavy rare earth elements and faces new geopolitical dynamics following China’s export restrictions.
