Latest Jorc Mineral Resources News

LE Minerals has confirmed lithium-bearing brines across its White Plains project in Utah, with 12 direct push holes returning grades of up to 114 mg/L at 15 metres. The company will now work towards a maiden JORC Mineral Resource, although five southern auger sites produced no brine and several claims were not renewed.

Oceana Metals has begun its first rare earths-focused drilling campaign at Serra Negra in Brazil, targeting a high-grade central corridor ahead of a maiden JORC resource estimate. The program starts with two rigs and is backed by A$8.16 million in cash plus a further $12.6 million from a July placement tranche.

Magnum Mining has defined a connected 32.5km² Plateau Zone at its Piracanjuba North project in Brazil after positive results from another 86 auger holes. The company is targeting a maiden JORC Mineral Resource Estimate in November 2026, but the latest desorption figures remain laboratory screening results rather than recoveries or economic data.

Barton Gold has secured approval for the environmental scope governing development studies at its Tunkillia gold and silver project in South Australia. The milestone moves the project towards a Mining Lease application, with updated resources, Ore Reserves and a pre-feasibility study targeted for the first quarter of 2027.

Krakatoa Resources has reported high-grade gold and antimony results from the first batch of its 2026 Zopkhito drilling assays, including 1.8 metres at 11.09 g/t gold and 3.56% antimony. The results support continuity at Vein 6 and identify mineralisation outside the project’s existing foreign estimate, but remain exploration results pending further drilling and a JORC assessment.

Power Minerals has secured priority-project treatment from Minas Gerais for its Morro do Ferro rare earths project, directing future licensing through a specialised state pathway. The agreement improves institutional access but stops well short of environmental approval, project finance or a construction timetable.

Corazon Mining has secured key gold rights over two tenements near its Chalice Gold Project, unlocking historic high-grade targets and extending its greenstone belt tenure to over 40 km. The acquisition dovetails with a recently defined Exploration Target, positioning Corazon for resource growth in a prolific WA gold district.

Clara Resources is set to kick off a maiden drilling campaign at its Mareeba Gold Project, marking the first drilling activity since the late 1980s. The program, fully funded by a $1.165 million placement, targets historic high-grade gold zones and aims to establish a maiden JORC Mineral Resource.

Javelin Minerals has launched a significant diamond drilling campaign targeting two major deep gold-copper anomalies at its Coogee Project in WA, supported by WA Government funding.

Mount Hope Mining has advanced its Mt Solitary gold project with strong drilling results and metallurgical testwork, aiming for a maiden JORC Mineral Resource Estimate by the end of 2026.

Haranga Resources appoints seasoned mining executive Patrick Mutz as Managing Director and CEO, aiming to accelerate development of its high-grade Lincoln Gold Project in California.

Javelin Minerals has cleared a major hurdle with final mining approval for its Eureka Gold Project near Kalgoorlie, positioning it for imminent production backed by a $25 million financing deal.
