Latest Drilling Campaigns News

Terrain Minerals’ latest drilling at its Lightning Gold Prospect reveals continuous high-grade gold mineralisation, expanding the system’s footprint and complexity. With a mining lease granted and a maiden JORC resource estimate due mid-year, the project is poised for a pivotal phase.

Cobre Limited has kicked off a major 40,000-metre drilling campaign at its Sierra Atacama copper project in Chile, aiming to convert its existing NI 43-101 resource to JORC compliance and explore opportunities for a larger open-pit operation.

Sun Silver has engaged global engineering firm Ausenco to lead critical concept and scoping studies for its Maverick Silver Project in Nevada, aiming to underpin a maiden Scoping Study by late 2026. The move leverages Ausenco’s North American precious metals expertise and comes as silver prices hover near US$77 an ounce, bolstering project economics.

Aldoro Resources has confirmed a major mineralisation extension at its Kameelburg deposit in Namibia, with drill hole DD004E intersecting 387.2 meters of continuous rare earth elements, strontium, niobium, and molybdenum. The Phase II drilling program is complete, setting the stage for bulk sampling.

Kingston Resources has delivered a fresh batch of high-grade polymetallic assay results from underground drilling at its Southern Ore Zone, Mineral Hill, reinforcing the geological model and underpinning near-term underground mining plans.

Catalina Resources has kicked off a systematic soil sampling program at its Beasley Creek Project in WA, targeting expansion of a copper-gold volcanic-hydrothermal system at the Flamingo target. The move positions the project closer to drill-ready status amid ongoing heritage and funding progress.

Tivan and Sumitomo Corporation have extended their Memorandum of Understanding for the Molyhil Tungsten Project to June 2026, allowing Tivan to complete a Scoping Study and progress joint venture negotiations. Drilling has commenced to expand the resource base, with product marketing underway targeting Q3 2026 delivery.

FIN Resources has validated a substantial sulphide-bearing banded iron formation at its Cabin Lake project, with three drillholes revealing approximately 114 metres of mineralisation. Early drilling at the Beaver Prospect shows promise as the company advances an integrated geophysical and drilling campaign.

Waratah Minerals continues to expand high-grade gold mineralisation at its Spur Gold Project in New South Wales, with drill hole SPD025 delivering multiple standout intercepts. The ongoing ten-rig program highlights growing potential for shallow, high-grade deposits across the district.

OD6 Metals has revealed exceptional channel sampling results from its Horseshoe Prospect within the Quinn Fluorspar Project, confirming extensive ultra-high-grade fluorspar mineralisation with grades peaking at 82% CaF2. These findings underscore the project's potential for direct shipping ore and acid-grade fluorspar production.

Aurum Resources has consolidated a 4.2 million ounce gold resource across its Boundiali and Napié projects in Côte d’Ivoire, progressing a central processing hub and expanding drilling programs as it targets development milestones in 2026.

Ore Resources Ltd reveals strong initial results from its Phase 4 drilling at the Forrest prospect, confirming significant down-dip and strike extensions of high-grade gold mineralisation. Diamond drilling is underway to test deeper zones, with further assay results and geophysical data expected soon.
