Latest Heritage Survey News

Recharge Metals has secured firm commitments for a $4.1 million placement ahead of its first 30,000-metre drilling campaign at Sunset Well. The raise lifts pro forma cash to approximately $8 million and also funds copper-tungsten work at Brandy Hill South.

Legend Mining is preparing to test its Pyrophyllite Hill gold prospect with a 50-hole aircore program after completing heritage surveys. The explorer ended September with $9.24 million in cash, although the reported 19.5-quarter funding estimate is based on a relatively modest quarter of spending.

Astral Resources has intersected broad, high-grade gold below the current Theia resource pit shell while extending mineralisation about 150 metres south. The results strengthen the exploration case beneath the planned open pit, although a resource or reserve increase has not yet been announced.

Hamelin Gold has expanded its Day Dawn drilling campaign after intersecting multiple high-grade gold lodes, including 3 metres at 93.4 g/t Au from 9 metres. The company raised approximately $8 million during the quarter and held $9 million in cash as it prepares for diamond drilling and further exploration across Western Australia.

Recharge Metals has completed its 100% acquisition of the Ironstone Well Gold Project, expanding its Prospero gold exploration trend near Leonora to more than 15km. The deal lands just as the company prepares to start its first 30,000m drilling campaign at the adjoining Sunset Well project.

Iceni Gold has defined a new drilling corridor at Goose Well after diamond drilling confirmed broad, low-grade gold mineralisation with higher-grade quartz veins near the Gander Fault. The company is also preparing for a Gold Fields-funded 7,000m RC campaign at Everleigh, with results expected from December.

Astral Resources has more than doubled the Spargoville project’s mineral resource to 281,000 ounces after reinterpreting four deposits and applying a larger optimised pit shell. The update lifts the group’s reported mineral resource to 2.21 million ounces, but remains a resource estimate rather than an ore reserve or production declaration.

Cavalier Resources has secured all primary approvals needed to advance Stage 1 mining at its Crawford Gold Project near Leonora. The regulatory milestone shifts attention to funding, site preparation and the finalisation of mining arrangements with SSH Mining.

Burley Minerals has confirmed shallow Channel Iron Deposit mineralisation across the North and Step-Out Targets at its Cane Bore project, with assays averaging 50.6% Fe across reported intersections. The mineralisation remains open northeast and southwest, but further drilling, metallurgy and approvals are still required before any resource can be defined.

Tasman Resources has swung to a $16.5 million FY2026 profit after booking a $19.48 million gain when Eden Innovations ceased to be controlled. The explorer also ended the year with $5.65 million in cash and no borrowings, but its next test is geological rather than accounting: drilling at Titan West and Parkinson Dam.

Westar Resources has reported a $3.30 million FY2026 loss after impairing $2.20 million of exploration assets, predominantly at Gidgee North. The explorer ended the year with $1.85 million in cash after raising $1.98 million, while adding several early-stage gold and copper projects.

Broken Hill Gold has won tenders for two South Australian exploration licences covering 751 square kilometres, doubling its regional tenure near White Dam to more than 1,500 square kilometres. The ground includes the historically productive Manna Hill and Waukaringa goldfields, but still requires formal grant, permitting and modern drilling before its potential can be tested.
