Latest Geological Data News

Union Star Metals ended September with A$220,000 in cash, enough for an estimated 0.44 quarters of funding at the quarter’s outflow rate. The company has completed its Brazilian asset sale and is pursuing portfolio disposals, but permitting delays have pushed back planned drilling at its main Nevada project.

QMines has doubled its Mt Chalmers drilling campaign to 20,000 metres while reporting $10.7 million in cash and a further $1.4 million in contracted receivables. The September quarter also delivered a higher Mount Mackenzie resource, fresh Botos drilling and a pipeline of assays that could shape the next resource update.

Resolution Minerals has confirmed at least 500 metres of open-ended gold mineralisation at Golden Gate North in Idaho, with two new holes returning more than 320 metres of downhole gold-bearing intervals. The results strengthen the geological picture, but true widths, economic significance and the ultimate scale of the system remain unresolved.

Macro Metals has completed its A$1 million acquisition of the Yandi South Iron Ore Project, receiving previously undisclosed geological data that identifies nine additional prospects. Surface samples returned iron grades as high as 66.2%, but drilling is still needed to establish continuity, thickness and depth.

Aurum Resources has reported further high-grade gold at its BST1 deposit in Côte d’Ivoire, including mineralisation beyond the current resource that remains open at depth. The results will feed an updated Boundiali resource estimate due by the end of October and a definitive feasibility study targeted for late 2026.

Aurum Resources has reported further gold mineralisation across three Boundiali targets, including a high-grade 5.85-metre intercept at BMT3. The 60-hole program is designed to expand the resource, upgrade confidence and support a maiden estimate for BMT2 ahead of an early fourth-quarter update.

Southern Cross Gold has accelerated drilling and underground development at Sunday Creek, spending $32.9 million during the August quarter while cash fell to C$84.0 million. The company remains aimed at a maiden mineral resource in the first quarter of 2027, but poor ground conditions have pushed exploration decline completion back by a month.

Aurum Resources has reported its best-ever grade-thickness intercept at the Boundiali Gold Project, led by 28.8 metres at 22.92 g/t gold from the BST1 deposit. The results are intended to support an early fourth-quarter resource update and a definitive feasibility study due late in 2026.

Novo Resources is positioning a A$8 million cash balance and A$37.54 million investment portfolio behind a broad Australian gold, copper and polymetallic exploration push. The strategy brings several drilling catalysts, but also a A$10 million deferred payment due in December and a heavy reliance on future exploration success.

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.

Enova Mining has secured an exclusive 30-day option over a large Brazilian monazite project while lining up almost $2 million in funding. The opportunity remains conditional on due diligence, shareholder approval and Enova’s decision to exercise the option.

Titan Minerals has extended high-grade gold-silver mineralisation at its Dynasty project in Ecuador and reported broad infill results that could support resource classification upgrades. The company is adding drilling capacity ahead of a Mineral Resource Estimate and Scoping Study targeted for the first quarter of 2027.
