Adelong Gold’s latest drilling at Lauriston validates historic gold grades at Comet and reveals an emerging antimony system at Trojan, signalling potential for a significant gold-antimony corridor in Victoria.

Barton Gold has launched a ~3,000m diamond drilling campaign at its Tunkillia project, aiming to upgrade resources and support a Mining Lease application by the end of 2026. The project builds on a strong May 2025 study projecting robust returns amid rising gold and silver prices.

Locksley Resources has kicked off maiden diamond drilling at its Desert Antimony Mine and El Campo Rare Earth Element Prospect, alongside producing 99.5% purity antimony trioxide, reinforcing its push for a US domestic critical minerals supply chain.

Emu NL has secured $1.63 million from its recent rights issue to fund a 10,000-metre drilling program targeting copper anomalies at Yataga Valley, while a $2 million shortfall remains unplaced.

Enova Mining has initiated a deep diamond drilling campaign at its Charley Creek Rare Earth Project in the Northern Territory, aiming to unlock the potential of deeper bedrock rare earth mineralisation following encouraging earlier air-core results.

Pantoro Gold’s latest drilling at Scotia confirms significant high-grade gold zones well below current resources, prompting approval for new mining levels and bolstering production prospects for FY2027 despite recent delays.

Galileo Mining maintains a strong cash position of approximately A$8.2 million as it confirms extensive PGE-nickel-copper mineralisation at Norseman's Mission Sill and completes deep diamond drilling beneath the Callisto deposit.

Kuniko Limited has delivered strong assay results from its maiden drilling at the Commonwealth Main Shaft in NSW, confirming high-grade gold, silver and base metals and extending mineralisation down-dip. These findings set the stage for a more ambitious Phase II drilling campaign.

Great Southern Mining (ASX:GSN) reported a substantial extension of gold mineralisation at its Golden Boulder discovery in Western Australia, alongside the commencement of deep diamond drilling co-funded by the WA Government. The company also raised A$4.2 million to fuel ongoing exploration.

Terrain Minerals has completed a critical four-hole diamond drilling program at its Lightning Gold Project, securing key structural and density data that de-risks the upcoming maiden Mineral Resource Estimate scheduled for July 2026. The results confirm continuity of high-grade gold mineralisation, underpinning the project's transition from exploration to resource definition.
