Latest Drilling Plans News

Meeka Metals has raised $60 million through an institutional placement to fund expansion at its Murchison Gold Project, aiming to boost mining operations and processing capacity ahead of first gold production expected this month.

Legacy Minerals has completed its inaugural drilling campaign at the Thomson Project in north-west NSW, intersecting extensive quartz-sulphide veins indicative of promising intrusion-related gold and copper mineralisation. Assay results are pending, with further drilling approvals underway to explore additional targets.

Lachlan Star Limited has reported promising initial gold assay results from its ongoing drilling at the Killaloe Gold Project in Western Australia, revealing new shallow gold-bearing structures near the Duke main trend. The under-explored project shows strong potential for further discoveries as drilling continues.

Blaze Minerals has inked a binding deal to acquire a major interest in the Loulombo Base Metals Project in the Republic of Congo, backed by a $2.52 million capital raise to fund exploration and development.

iTech Minerals reports significant historical gold and antimony mineralisation at its Falchion Prospect in the Northern Territory, revealing expanded targets along an 18km prospective structural corridor. Planned geophysical surveys and drilling aim to unlock further value in the Reynolds Range Project.

Lakes Blue Energy NL has secured $6.5 million through a fully underwritten placement to fund drilling at its Wombat Gas Field in Victoria, aiming to address looming gas supply shortages on Australia's east coast.

Aurelia Metals has reported exceptional high-grade base metal intersections at its Federation West and Nymagee deposits, revealing new mineralisation lenses and promising targets for future exploration.

Nordic Resources has confirmed substantial gold mineralisation at its newly acquired Hirsikangas project in Finland, revealing wide and high-grade intersections with significant unexplored potential along a 10km magnetic trend.

Ark Mines has launched a detailed metallurgical improvement program at its Sandy Mitchell Rare Earth and Heavy Minerals project, aiming to refine processing techniques and expand its resource base. The work supports a Pre-Feasibility Study due early next year.

Sarytogan Graphite Limited reports encouraging copper grades from trench sampling at its Baynazar project in Kazakhstan, positioning the Ilkin prospect for imminent drilling. The company plans KGK drilling to test bedrock copper mineralisation, pending funding.

Future Battery Minerals has identified thirteen new structural gold targets at its Miriam Project in Western Australia, setting the stage for a promising exploration campaign starting July 2025.

Strategic Energy Resources has commenced gravity and magnetotelluric surveys at its Canobie Project, with Fortescue funding all exploration costs under their joint venture. These surveys aim to refine drill targets for potential copper-gold discoveries later this year.
