Latest Gold Prospectivity News

Empire Resources has identified rare earth oxide and phosphate mineralisation across three Yuinmery prospects, with new archived-drilling results reaching 1,712.5ppm TREO+Y. The early-stage opportunity now depends on additional assays, follow-up drilling and proof that the material can be upgraded economically.

Dart Mining has confirmed high-grade tin in four selective rock-chip samples from its Walwa project in Northeast Victoria, including 3.96% tin with elevated tantalum and niobium. The results strengthen the case for maiden diamond drilling planned for October, but do not establish representative grades or a mineral resource.

Cosmo Metals has secured approval for up to 2,200 metres of maiden drilling at the Mona copper-gold-silver prospect in New South Wales. The campaign will test whether striking grades from historic mine dumps reflect concealed sulphide mineralisation below the old workings.

Golden Mile Resources says follow-up surface sampling has expanded the exposed Aurora gold anomaly in Arizona to at least 280 metres wide and 450 metres along strike. The results strengthen the case for drilling, although the prospect remains an early-stage, undrilled target with open boundaries.

Yandal Resources has extended the newly defined Domain C at its Arrakis gold prospect by about 80 metres down-plunge, with drilling returning 24.2 metres at 1.4g/t gold. The result strengthens the case for deeper follow-up drilling, although the mineralised system remains too broadly spaced to support a resource estimate.

Legacy Minerals is progressing an optimised scoping study at its Mt Carrington project, leveraging a 39% increase in resource tonnes and a 69% jump in indicated resources. Results are expected in December 2026, aiming to assess the economics of a larger-scale operation.

Catalina Resources is gearing up for maiden drilling at its Tallering Santy target in November 2026 while pushing Kirkalocka towards drill-ready status and launching first-ever fieldwork at Warriedar.

Maritana Minerals is intensifying drilling across its Western Australian projects, aiming to upgrade resources and support a mid-2027 mining restart at Boorara and first gold processing at the Black Swan Processing Hub.

Talisman Mining secures A$4 million through a strongly supported placement, including significant board participation, to fund exploration and new project opportunities in gold-rich NSW and Western Australia.

PLC Resources is set to resume drilling at Rochefort in September, aiming to expand on promising gold signals from its maiden program. Meanwhile, a fresh structural interpretation has revealed a major regional gold corridor at Abbotts North, broadening exploration prospects.

Terrain Minerals has reported metallurgical leaching results from its Larin’s Lane Prospect showing rare-earth element recoveries up to 99% using methanesulphonic acid, alongside promising scandium and gallium extraction, setting a technical foundation for resource development.

Kingfisher Mining’s first drilling at Stephens Trig since 2017 confirms significant high-grade silver, lead, and zinc mineralisation, reinforcing its Broken Hill portfolio and strategic development options.
