Latest Drilling Plans News

Maritana Minerals has launched a fully funded 60,000-metre resource conversion drilling campaign targeting four key projects to upgrade Mineral Resources and bolster mine planning for the Black Swan Processing Hub.

Sabre Resources is poised to kick off a major drilling campaign at its Kurundi North Project, aiming to unlock copper-gold deposits analogous to Tennant Creek. This follows a transformative acquisition pending shareholder approval and includes government-backed funding for follow-up diamond drilling.

Golden Dragon Mining's latest drilling at Behring Bore within the Cue Gold Project has intersected further high-grade gold near surface, reinforcing the prospect’s potential as a large-scale mineralised system with open extensions.

Benz Mining has unveiled a maiden Exploration Target for its Glenburgh Gold Project, estimating up to 12 million ounces of gold largely defined by drilling. The project’s scale and geological setting support ambitions for a world-class gold system, with aggressive drilling planned to convert the target into a Mineral Resource by 2027.

Adavale Resources has reported assay results from 13 additional drillholes at its London-Victoria gold mine, confirming and expanding gold mineralisation beneath the historic open pit. The ongoing drilling program supports a larger mineralised system along the Parkes Thrust corridor, with promising metallurgical testwork and a planned resource update.

Dundas Minerals has delivered high-grade gold assay results from 1m re-assays at its Rockland project near Kalgoorlie, validating a mineralised corridor extending over 2km from Capricorn through Rockland. The company is gearing up for extensive drilling to test depth extensions and linkages along this emerging gold system.

Belararox’s latest geophysical work at its Kalahari Copper Project in Botswana reveals promising geological continuity extending from the nearby Khoemacau mining district, setting the stage for drilling to begin in July.

Critical Resources Limited has validated a high-grade tungsten system at its Granite Creek target in New Zealand, with channel sampling returning 16.63% WO₃ true width. The results underpin a clear path to drilling amid tightening global tungsten supply.

Leeuwin Metals has uncovered multiple significant historical gold intercepts at its Marda Gold Project’s Red Boomerang and Deception Hill prospects, expanding exploration potential beyond the existing 342,300oz resource. Drilling plans for the second half of 2026 are progressing alongside a resource upgrade and assay results from 55 pending holes.

Dreadnought Resources has nearly doubled the high-confidence Indicated gold resource at its Metzke’s Find deposit in WA’s Illaara Project, lifting total ounces to about 25,000 at a robust 5.2 g/t grade. The shallow, high-grade resource sits on a granted mining lease and remains open for expansion.

Discovery Alaska is progressing preparations for its first drilling campaign at the Boulder Creek project in Idaho, targeting historic high-grade zones identified in the 1980s alongside recent encouraging rock samples.

Duketon Mining's first-ever drilling at Barlee delivers broad gold intercepts, confirming promising mineralisation and setting the stage for expanded exploration.
