Latest Drilling Results News

Pilbara Gold has reported strong initial drill results from the Terra Prospect at Roe Hills, including 46 metres at 3.17g/t gold and a narrower high-grade hit of 4 metres at 9.91g/t. The results extend evidence of a mineralised corridor at least 1.5km long, although substantial drilling and follow-up work remain.

Elk Range Mining has logged seven visible native-gold observations in its maiden drill hole at the Friday Gold Project in Idaho. The result offers fresh structural information, but assays remain the decisive test and are not expected until late October or early November.

Sentinel Metals has reported broad, stacked gold mineralisation at its Columbia project in Montana, including a 48-metre intercept at 1.13g/t gold. Fire assays have also confirmed the company’s earlier high-grade maiden-hole result, while a November resource update now looms as the key test.

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.

Investigator Silver has used FY26 to move the Paris Silver Project from feasibility study toward development, backed by A$58.8 million in cash and a maiden ore reserve. The company still faces the harder tests of permitting, financing and construction before its projected silver production can become reality.

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.

Evergold Minerals has identified a new shallow gold-mineralised zone 600m northwest of the Duchess of York main zone in Western Australia. The Vanguard discovery will now be tested through resource-definition RC drilling planned for October.

King River Resources has shifted its operational centre of gravity to the Mindoolah Gold Project, where it identified 467,659 cubic metres of historical stockpile and waste material for evaluation. The company’s $15.9 million annual profit was driven mainly by gains on Tivan securities rather than mining revenue, leaving drilling results and funding capacity as the next tests.

Resources & Energy Group has reported strong gold intercepts from grade control drilling at its Maranoa project in Western Australia, including 2 metres at 15.84g/t and 4 metres at 10.38g/t. The results support further mine-planning work, but do not yet change the deposit’s existing inferred resource.

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.
