Latest Exploration Techniques News

Moonlight Resources has kicked off its first reverse circulation drilling campaign at Peak Downs in central Queensland, aiming to validate historic high-grade copper mineralisation and unlock the potential of a largely underexplored system.

Daly Resources is aggressively advancing exploration across its 6,451 km² Northern Territory portfolio, highlighting ultra-high-grade fluorite at Huckitta and promising sediment-hosted copper-zinc targets with government-backed geophysical surveys underway.

Ora Banda Mining has significantly extended the Sapphire lode over 2.6km and confirmed high-grade intercepts on the Gem lode stretching over 4.7km at its Little Gem Prospect, with a maiden resource estimate due late 2026.

Aurora Energy Metals progresses the Aurora Uranium Project with a major drill program imminent under Eagle Nuclear Energy, while broadening its Western Australian footprint with new exploration licences at Mukinbudin.

True North Copper’s latest diamond drilling at Mt Oxide validates the Aquila discovery as a broad, continuous copper-cobalt-silver system with well-defined higher-grade zones, extending mineralisation over 1.8km strike and reinforcing its standalone development potential.

Great Dirt Resources has sharpened its lithium exploration focus in the Pilbara while confirming high-grade manganese assays in NSW, maintaining a robust cash position to fund its growth plans.

Moonlight Resources has kicked off its inaugural Reverse Circulation drilling at the Goldfinger Prospect within the Clermont Gold Project, aiming to validate and extend historical high-grade gold mineralisation from the late 1980s.

Galileo Mining has pinpointed a new drill target at its Norseman project, just 2km from the Callisto resource, following rock chip samples grading up to 1.87 g/t combined palladium, platinum and gold. An aircore drilling program is planned to test the untested mineralised zone beneath outcrop.

Catalina Resources Limited has corrected an earlier ASX announcement and reaffirmed significant historical gold mineralisation across its recently acquired Mid-West portfolio in Western Australia, supported by a $3 million capital raise and advancing exploration activities.

Redstone Resources is moving forward with exploration at its newly granted Saturn Project in Western Australia's West Musgrave region, a 330km2 tenure adjacent to major Cu-Ni-Co-PGE deposits. Historical drilling highlights significant copper, nickel, and PGE mineralisation, underpinning the project's potential in a world-class geological setting.

TechGen Metals has confirmed a major extension of high-grade copper-gold mineralisation at its Red Devil Zone within the Blue Devil Project in WA, setting the stage for imminent maiden drilling.

Miramar Resources has received a A$238,456 refundable R&D tax offset for FY2025, supporting innovative exploration techniques at its Whaleshark and Bangemall projects. This non-dilutive funding strengthens the company’s cash position ahead of planned drilling and surveys.
