Famien Resources will sell its West Yilgarn exploration portfolio to Voltaic Strategic Resources for $330,000 upfront, with a further $2 million tied to future gold resource milestones.

Kalgoorlie Gold Mining has identified multiple coherent gold-in-regolith anomalies across the first 225-hole aircore test of its LTZ Flexure target at Pinjin. The strongest exploration signal stretches up to 2km, but primary gold mineralisation at depth remains unconfirmed.

Hammer Metals’ proposed acquisition by Austral Resources has cleared its first court stage, with ASIC registering the scheme booklet and an independent expert backing the scrip deal.

Dynamic Metals will sell its Lady Jane Gold Project to First Au for up to A$650,000 while retaining a 1.5% gross revenue royalty. The buyer must spend at least A$250,000 on direct drilling within two years, or Dynamic can seek to take the project back.
