Latest Drill Campaigns News

Daly Resources says a 10.7-kilometre soil traverse has revealed fluorine anomalies beyond known Huckitta fluorite outcrops, including beneath transported cover. A new western vein and high-grade rock-chip results have widened the exploration target, but drilling is still required to test continuity and scale.

Evergold Minerals has reported a sharply smaller FY2026 loss and a stronger cash position after completing its shift from lithium to gold exploration. The company now has $4.0 million in cash and $4.8 million invested in Western Australian exploration assets, but remains dependent on drilling success and future funding.

Central Petroleum has swung to a $4.9 million FY2026 statutory loss after writing down two Amadeus Basin permits, but its gas business generated higher revenue and margins. The company is now betting on Palm Valley drilling, long-term contracts and new east coast acreage to restore growth.

Sky Metals has used FY2026 to move Tallebung from exploration toward development, combining more than 500 drill holes with strong ore-sorting results and progress into NSW’s environmental approval process. The advance came alongside a A$5.37 million loss and continuing reliance on equity funding.

Western Gold Resources has sharply expanded the proposed Gold Duke mine, lifting its production target by 62% and forecasting A$72.9 million in operating surplus. The preliminary study is stronger on paper, but still depends on funding and the restart of toll treatment at Wiluna.

Tolu Minerals has increased the Tolukuma gold resource by 81% to 909,000 ounces after four months of full-scale drilling, pushing its reported Papua New Guinea gold inventory above one million ounces. The proposed early 2027 restart now has a larger resource base, but remains dependent on infrastructure, technical work and conversion of resources into mineable reserves.

Unity Metals has identified multiple new gold-anomalous zones across 1,063 metres of trenching at its Ngot and O’Phlay projects in Cambodia. The work also showed that drilling at Ngot NE was poorly oriented to intersect the interpreted mineralisation, setting up a revised drilling campaign.

Industrial Minerals has completed its shift from an industrial-minerals explorer towards Western Australia gold, adding a 205 square kilometre Laverton portfolio after year end. The company enters the next phase with historical high-grade intercepts, a planned maiden drilling campaign and $2.08 million in cash at 30 June.

Corazon Mining has shifted decisively towards Western Australian gold, completing the A$25.7 million Chalice acquisition after year end and securing a 191,000-ounce JORC Mineral Resource. The strategic expansion came alongside a A$7.98 million FY2026 loss and an auditor warning that future funding remains critical.

BPM Minerals has entered its most consequential exploration phase after expanding Beachcomber into a multi-lode gold system and securing A$6.6 million in cash. The company is now drilling toward a maiden JORC resource, although its option to acquire the Forelands project remains unexercised and no resource has yet been estimated.

FMR Resources has shifted decisively towards Chile, expanding its copper-gold portfolio while early Llahuin drilling suggests the interpreted porphyry core remains untested. The exploration push came with a $6.44 million loss, $4.65 million in cash and a renewed dependence on future capital.

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.
