Latest Diamonds News

American West Metals has reported thick visual copper, zinc and molybdenum mineralisation in three new holes at its West Desert Project in Utah. The strongest result came from WD26-07, but laboratory assays are still needed to establish grades and economic significance.

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.

Sarytogan Graphite has intersected 318 metres of copper mineralisation from surface at its Ilksan prospect in central Kazakhstan, including a higher-grade 15.2-metre zone grading 0.40% copper. The result extends the system identified in an earlier hole, with assays from a deeper 452-metre hole due in the coming weeks.

Metal Hawk is restarting drilling at the Numbat lode after its best Leinster South result to date, with up to 10 RC holes planned and diamond drilling scheduled for November. The deeper campaign will be supported by up to $175,000 in Western Australian Government co-funding.

NewPeak Metals will begin a minimum 1,000-metre Phase 2 diamond drilling program at Las Opeñas in Argentina in mid-October, targeting a potentially gold-richer zone west of its recent long intercepts. The campaign is funded from the company’s completed placement, but the higher-grade western extension remains untested.

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.

Midas Minerals has returned a high-grade 10.9-metre copper intercept at its Deblin deposit in Namibia, including 5.7 metres at 8.85% copper. The results strengthen the case for continued resource drilling, although Deblin has yet to receive a mineral resource estimate.

TechGen Metals has outlined a funded exploration campaign spanning gold, copper and silver targets, with about A$3 million in pro forma cash and several assays due through late 2026. The strongest potential catalyst is John Bull, where step-out drilling could support a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate if results are positive.

NRW Holdings has secured approximately $313 million of additional work across a gold-processing expansion for Ramelius Resources and optional transport infrastructure works in Western Australia. The awards strengthen both Primero's minerals-processing pipeline and NRW's civil construction order book, although contract-level revenue and margin details remain undisclosed.

Charger Metals has mobilised an RC rig for a 10,000m programme aimed at expanding and upgrading confidence in its 10.6Mt Medcalf lithium resource. The work is funded by the $3.752 million cash sale of the Bynoe Lithium Project and comes as Charger commits to a scoping study at Lake Johnston.
