Latest Drill Targets News

Empire Resources has identified rare earth oxide and phosphate mineralisation across three Yuinmery prospects, with new archived-drilling results reaching 1,712.5ppm TREO+Y. The early-stage opportunity now depends on additional assays, follow-up drilling and proof that the material can be upgraded economically.

Alvo Minerals has identified a high-conductance off-hole conductor and multiple untested targets at its Touro copper-zinc prospect in Brazil. An environmental licence now allows Phase 2 drilling across roughly 500 metres of previously inaccessible strike.

Minrex Resources has completed its 33-hole Barje infill program and begun a 6,604-metre greenfield campaign at Tlamino in Serbia. The drilling will test whether Barje and Liska form part of a single mineralised system extending more than 1.5 kilometres.

A new magnetotelluric survey has identified a large conductive anomaly beneath Strickland Metals’ Obradov Prospect in Serbia, adding another high-priority target to its 9.25Moz AuEq Rogozna project. The anomaly is supported by overlapping gravity, IP, geochemical and drilling evidence, but still requires drilling to establish whether it contains an economic mineralised system.

Pantoro Gold has extended the interpreted mineralised strike at its Racetrack discovery to about 900 metres, with drilling returning several high-grade intersections. The company will begin a 450-metre exploration decline from the OK Underground Mine in the December 2026 quarter, although Racetrack remains outside the current Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve.

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.

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.

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.

Falcon Metals has started its first-ever drilling at the Olsen Well gold target in Western Australia, expanding the campaign to approximately 6,000 metres after a recent capital raising. The program will test the central portion of a 5.8-kilometre gold-in-soil anomaly supported by rock-chip results of up to 6.42 grams per tonne gold.

Hancock Prospecting has agreed to invest A$8.77 million in White Cliff Minerals for a proposed 13.5% stake, giving the junior explorer fresh capital to accelerate drilling at its Rae Copper Project in Nunavut. The placement still requires shareholder approval.

Lunnon Metals has reported strong gold intersections from 36 holes at its Foster-Baker project, including a standout 1 metre at 80.80 g/t gold at Hustler and broader mineralisation at Koombana. The results will feed updated resource models before a scoping study considers whether the two deposits could support future mining alongside a Lady Herial cut-back.

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.
