Latest Drilling And Assays News

Barton Gold has completed a 3,677m drilling program at its Tolmer Silver discovery, confirming high-grade silver mineralisation with assays exceeding 2,000 gram-metres and producing a concentrate grading over 100,000 g/t Ag without complex processing.

Lion Rock Minerals has reported robust drilling results from its expansive Minta Project in Cameroon, reinforcing its ambition to become a major global producer of rutile and monazite. The company targets a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate later this year amid promising assay outcomes from key tenements.

Great Western Exploration has wrapped up a 2,200m air core drilling program at its Diorama copper-gold target in WA, with assay results expected by late July or early August 2026. The company plans follow-up reverse circulation drilling at six nearby Juggernaut targets next month, followed by drilling at Baroo.

Reward Minerals has kicked off field activities at its Mountain Pond and Copper Lance projects in Newfoundland, advancing towards maiden drilling at the Jackpot Gold Prospect with sampling results due soon.

Dart Mining has wrapped up a major 4,100m diamond drilling campaign at the Coonambula project, triggering an increase in its ownership to 45% and revealing promising gold, silver, and antimony grades.

Tivan Limited has landed a $141,237 exploration grant from the Northern Territory Government to fund diamond drilling at its Molyhil Tungsten Project, pushing forward its Pre-Feasibility Study and joint venture talks with Sumitomo Corporation.

Cadoux Limited has inked a joint venture to earn up to 80% of the Wimmera Mineral Sands Project in Victoria, revealing promising high-grade drilling results at its Danube prospect. The project aims to feed Cadoux’s Minhub processing hub, targeting critical heavy rare earths supply.

Advance Metals Limited’s first diamond drill hole at the Gavilanes Project in Mexico has intersected a substantial high-grade silver zone, reinforcing plans for a JORC resource upgrade later in 2026 amid ongoing drilling.

Chilwa Minerals has confirmed significant niobium mineralisation in its southernmost drillhole at Nakombe, extending the known strike length to 270 metres and reinforcing the scale of its critical minerals project in Malawi.

Right Resources’ drilling at the Pilot Project in Tumbarumba validates a large Reduced Intrusive Related Gold System, with assays highlighting low grades in the transitional halo but confirming the presence of a substantial mineralised footprint. The high-grade core remains untested, marking a key exploration focus.

American West Metals has reported exceptional assay results from resampling historical drill core at its West Desert Project in Utah, revealing high-grade indium, copper, zinc, silver, and lead. The new data expands known mineralised intervals and supports ongoing drilling and government engagement.

Dart Mining has unveiled robust assay results from diamond drilling at the Banshee prospect, confirming high-grade gold, silver, and antimony mineralisation over a 500m strike. The findings reinforce the potential for resource growth and support plans to increase Dart's stake in the Coonambula project.
