Latest Exploration Target News

Hot Chili has reported a 398-metre copper-gold intersection from surface at its La Verde discovery in Chile, including 62 metres at 0.91% CuEq. The results extend the case for a higher-grade starter pit, but the project remains an exploration discovery with no Mineral Resource declared.

Leeuwin Metals has rejected the possibility of undisclosed exploration results driving a sharp rise in its share price, after ASX queried the move from $0.22 to $0.295. The gold explorer pointed instead to recent Marda news, a company-funded research report, stronger gold prices and buying by a substantial holder.

Larvotto Resources has delivered strong assay results from Clarks Gully drilling, revealing multiple high-grade gold-antimony-tungsten zones and expanding the deposit's footprint at depth and southwards.

Tivan Limited’s latest bulk assays from Timor-Leste confirm high-grade copper and gold mineralisation, sharpening focus on the Vemasse and Scorpion prospects for drilling later this year.

Azzuro Resources has identified nine high-priority geophysical anomalies at its Oval Cu-Ni-PGE project, expanding exploration potential with five drill-ready targets. Meanwhile, drilling at Copper Ridge intersected low-grade gold but no significant copper, refining the prospect’s geological understanding.

Corazon Mining has secured key gold rights over two tenements near its Chalice Gold Project, unlocking historic high-grade targets and extending its greenstone belt tenure to over 40 km. The acquisition dovetails with a recently defined Exploration Target, positioning Corazon for resource growth in a prolific WA gold district.

Dreadnought Resources has extended gold-in-soil anomalies at its Bordah prospect within the Mangaroon Gold Project to more than 10 kilometres in strike and 2 kilometres wide, unveiling two compelling new targets: a large-scale intrusion-related gold system and a stronger tungsten-in-soil anomaly than the nearby Nina tungsten target.

Lithium Plus Minerals has significantly upgraded its Lei Lithium Project resource and secured a 20-year mining lease, positioning the company for near-term development and commercialisation.

Codrus Minerals Limited posted a $1.41 million loss for FY26 as it confirmed gold and molybdenum mineralisation at Bull Run, rationalised its portfolio, and secured a binding acquisition of EdgeMet with a $2.5 million capital raise underway.

Core Energy Minerals (ASX:CR3) has secured $3.025 million through a discounted share placement to fund drilling and resource definition at its Nova Uranium Project in Namibia’s Erongo province.

Tartana Minerals has initiated a comprehensive operational and strategic review following a board leadership change, aiming to unlock value from its extensive base and precious metals assets. Drilling is set to resume at the Nightflower silver project in October, while an independent review of the Copper Sulphate plant is underway amid minimal production in 2026.

Neometals reports significant gold intersections from recent drilling at its Barrambie Gold Project, confirming a high-grade plunging corridor at Ironclad and outlining plans for diamond drilling to test deeper extensions.
