West Cobar Metals (ASX: WC1) has struck a deal to acquire the Baxter Fluorspar Project in Nevada, a site with a rich history of premium acid-grade fluorspar production. Backed by a $1.05 million placement, the acquisition positions WC1 within a critical US supply chain for fluorspar, a mineral vital for semiconductor and defence industries.

Waratah Minerals reveals substantial high-grade gold extensions at its Spur Gold Project, with drilling extending mineralisation up to 160m and confirming a district-scale system.

Ore Resources’ Phase 4 diamond drilling at the Forrest prospect reveals significant strike and depth extensions, expanding the gold system to over 1km strike and 250m depth, with further growth potential identified by geophysical surveys.

Piche Resources’ maiden RC drilling at Cerro Chacón reveals a widespread low-sulphidation epithermal gold-silver system, with assays confirming mineralisation over 10 km² at Toro Hosco and promising high-grade silver and gold intercepts.

Belararox has locked in a further A$2 million through a placement priced 25% above its current shares, boosting funds for copper exploration in Botswana and Argentina.

Independent lab tests confirm helium levels over 12 times atmospheric background and hydrogen concentrations exceeding 6,200 times background at Prominence Energy's PEL 803 in South Australia, underpinning a robust subsurface gas system model.

Southern Hemisphere Mining has pushed visible copper sulphide mineralisation deeper at its Llahuin project in Chile, with diamond drilling confirming continuity down to 256 metres. Assay results are pending, setting the stage for a clearer picture of the system’s scale and grade.

Magnum Mining’s initial 24 auger holes at Piracanjuba North all intersected near-surface rare earth mineralisation, showing promising grades and high desorption rates that suggest efficient extraction potential under mild conditions.

DeSoto Resources has kicked off a substantial 10,000-metre power auger drilling program at its Timbakouna Gold Project in Guinea, aiming to test beneath lateritic cover and build on historic high-grade gold intercepts.

A new geophysical survey at EV Resources’ Los Lirios project in Mexico reveals extensive sulphide anomalies and a structural fault network, significantly expanding the exploration footprint and sharpening drill targets ahead of a maiden resource estimate.

Mithril Silver and Gold has delivered compelling drilling results at its Copalquin project in Mexico, highlighting significant high-grade gold and silver intercepts that underpin an imminent resource update.

Pivotal Metals has unveiled high-grade copper, nickel, and platinum group metals intersections from its maiden drill program at the Belleterre Projects, confirming a significant mineralised system and advancing exploration across multiple targets.
