Megado Minerals is poised to kick off its maiden drilling campaign at the Iberian Copper Project in northern Spain, targeting historic copper oxide deposits and exploring for deeper sulphide mineralisation with new geophysical surveys underway.

Somerset Minerals has unveiled high-grade copper results up to 9.26% from its 2026 diamond drilling at Jura, Nunavut, while gearing up for maiden drilling at the extensive Talisker anomaly, signalling a busy exploration year ahead.

Antares Metals (ASX: AM5) reports exceptional surface gold grades up to 41.7 g/t at its Quinns project in WA, revealing three priority drill targets and fast-tracking maiden drilling plans.

Great Northern Minerals has significantly enlarged its Iron Butte Gold-Silver Project in Nevada by staking 46 additional lode claims covering around 950 acres. The new ground shows promising geological and geochemical signatures, setting the stage for imminent resource estimation and drilling.

Ragusa Minerals has started an induced polarisation geophysical survey at the Black Rock Manganese Mine within its Purple Pansy Project in Arizona, aiming to map high-grade manganese mineralisation and prepare for drilling.

West Cobar Metals (ASX: WC1) has bolstered its Cobar Basin footprint with the granting of EL9912, unveiling a gravity anomaly at Lilyvale that outstrips its Bulla Park deposit and signals potential for a new concealed copper district.

Larvotto Resources has identified a significant high-grade gold-antimony-tungsten mineralised system at Curry’s Block, with diamond drilling approved to test extensions. Tungsten’s critical mineral status and record prices add strategic weight to the project’s near-mine growth potential.

Dreadnought Resources has launched a comprehensive target definition program at its Mangaroon Gold Project, deploying soil sampling and a gradient array induced polarization survey to pinpoint new drill targets ahead of discovery-focused drilling later this year.

Mount Ridley Mines’ latest 3D gravity inversion modelling validates its existing resource and uncovers multiple new high-priority rare earth and scandium targets, pointing to significant upside along strike and at depth.

Trek Metals has won two co-funded geophysical grants under WA’s Exploration Incentive Scheme, advancing manganese and gold exploration at Christmas Creek with drilling set to start in May.

Altitude Minerals has locked in an exclusive option for the W-Project near Winnemucca, Nevada, adding a sizeable epithermal gold-silver system to its portfolio. Historical drilling shows widespread mineralisation but leaves key high-grade feeder zones untested, setting the stage for a 2026 exploration push.

Dreadnought Resources has confirmed near-complete gold recoveries from metallurgical tests at Metzke’s Find, underpinning a planned resource upgrade and scoping study for its Illaara Gold Project.
