Latest Copper News

Tambourah Metals has reported high-grade exploration results at Beatty Park South and Tambourah King, alongside a stronger cash position and a reduced annual loss. The projects remain at exploration stage, with drilling and resource modelling now carrying the story forward.

Manhattan Gold has extended the search footprint at its Jaws target in Nunavut after a 275-metre step-out returned 21.34 metres at 1.72g/t gold. The result takes drill-tested strike to 1.25km, although the company says true widths remain unknown and the work is still exploration-stage.

White Cliff Minerals has expanded the assay-confirmed footprint of its Rae Copper Project beyond 11.5km, while new Danvers 3 drilling has placed visible copper sulphides within 19 metres of surface. The most eye-catching Danvers 3 interval still awaits laboratory assays.

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.

Nordic Resources has recorded gold recoveries of up to 90% and copper recoveries of up to 91% at its Kopsa gold-copper project in Finland using a conventional processing route. The results will feed into an updated resource estimate expected in October, while a new 12,000-metre drilling program is already under way.

Aruma Resources is adding 32 contiguous claims to its Tillex copper-silver project in Ontario, expanding the land position to approximately 28.4km². The new ground extends interpreted copper trends and introduces largely untested gold targets, while Phase 2 drilling continues to push the existing high-grade zone southwest.

Kaoko Metals has expanded drilling at its Chalkos Copper-Silver Project to at least 15,000 metres after encouraging early observations at Otniel and a new surface copper discovery at Donkey Hill East. A second rig is now drilling Donkey Hill, while assays from the first two Otniel holes are expected within two to three weeks.

Sarytogan Graphite has confirmed copper mineralisation across the full 452.5-metre length of its third diamond hole at Ilksan in Kazakhstan. The result strengthens the porphyry interpretation, although the 0.063% copper average is notably below the two nearby holes.

Artemis Resources has repositioned around West Pilbara gold-copper exploration and the emerging Madura province, but its audited accounts warn that further funding is required to sustain planned activities. The company ended the year with $3.45 million in cash after an $8.81 million loss and a $5.23 million exploration write-off.

Cannindah Resources has identified a higher-tenor copper, gold and silver zone at its Appletree Prospect, with grades increasing southward toward a potential buried porphyry centre. Three diamond-hole assays remain outstanding before the company commits to the next phase of drilling.

Resource Minerals International has expanded its exploration push across Tanzania and Saudi Arabia, but auditors flagged a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue without future capital raisings. The ASX-listed explorer ended FY2026 with $2.12 million in cash after raising funds through placements and convertible securities.

Western Yilgarn expanded its inferred bauxite inventory to 244Mt and added gallium, tellurium, cobalt, scandium and gold targets during FY2026. But the explorer ended the year with $159,481 in cash, a $1.78 million loss and an auditor warning that further funding is required to continue planned activities.
