CGN Resources has significantly boosted its Western Australian gold portfolio by securing the Desdemona Project from Patronus Resources, setting the stage for a maiden drilling campaign at Christmas Well and Panhandle projects in May 2026.

Australasian Metals continues to build on its Queensland gold assets with a new exploration permit application and ongoing drill planning at May Queen, while holding a solid cash reserve of $2.46 million and progressing lithium project discussions.

Southern Hemisphere Mining has completed Phase I drilling at its Southern Porphyry target in Chile, confirming a large hydrothermal system and delivering encouraging assay results. The company is gearing up for Phase II drilling targeting the elusive high-grade core.

Asian Battery Metals has completed its acquisition of the Maikhan Uul Copper-Gold Project in Mongolia and is set to begin a 1,500-metre drilling campaign targeting gold mineralisation and feeder zones. The move complements its nearby Yambat project and signals an aggressive exploration push in 2026.

Lithium Energy has wrapped up diamond and air core drilling at the Bajool Prospect, unveiling geochemical trends aligned with a potential porphyry system, while awaiting critical diamond core assay results.

Catalina Resources has kicked off a systematic soil sampling program at its Beasley Creek Project in WA, targeting expansion of a copper-gold volcanic-hydrothermal system at the Flamingo target. The move positions the project closer to drill-ready status amid ongoing heritage and funding progress.

Bayan Mining and Minerals has locked in a reverse circulation drill rig with Alaska Midnight Sun Drilling for its first-ever drilling at the Desert Star rare earth project in California, targeting up to 1,000 metres from June 2026. The fully permitted program aims to test high-grade surface mineralisation and geophysical targets near the Mountain Pass mine.

FMR Resources has reported assay results from three diamond drillholes at the Southern Porphyry target within its Chilean Llahuin Project, confirming a large, vertically extensive porphyry-related hydrothermal system. While the causative porphyry core remains untested, elevated gold and molybdenum values suggest proximity, prompting plans for a focused Phase II drill program.

Catalina Resources is wrapping up a 1,600-metre drilling campaign at its Breakaway Dam project in Western Australia, confirming a copper-rich volcanogenic massive sulphide system. Early results validate their targeting strategy and set the stage for further exploration.

Emu NL’s Stage 1 drilling at Fiery Creek confirms a significant copper-silver mineral system, refining targets and boosting confidence for the 2026 Yataga Valley drilling campaign.

Legend Mining has expanded a significant geophysical anomaly at its Pyrophyllite Hill prospect, highlighting a promising new drill target within the Pinnacle Well Project in Western Australia.

Hammer Metals reports encouraging copper and zinc mineralisation from recent drilling at its Bullrush Joint Venture and Isa Valley earn-in projects in NW Queensland, signalling potential for significant resource growth.
