Latest Metallurgical Testwork News

Benz Mining’s latest drilling at Glenburgh’s Icon Camp continues to underpin a multi-million-ounce gold target, delivering thick high-grade intercepts and expanding mineralised zones towards Apollo.

Athena Resources has kicked off a 2,900m drilling campaign at its Narryer magnetite deposit, aiming to establish its first Mineral Resource Estimate and advance development plans within the Byro Magnetite Project.

Temas Resources' re-assay program at the Hervieux West deposit validates extensive high-grade titanium-vanadium mineralisation and reveals significant gallium, scandium, and chromium credits, accelerating resource development at the La Blache Project.

Flagship Minerals has agreed to sell its RK Lithium Project in Thailand for US$4 million, accelerating its strategic pivot towards gold and copper assets in Chile and Canada.

Prospect Resources has reported robust metallurgical testwork results from the Kabikupa deposit within its Mumbezhi Copper Project, achieving copper concentrate grades exceeding 25% with recoveries above 94%. These findings bolster the project's processing strategy and underpin upcoming scoping studies.

High-Tech Metals Ltd has wrapped up a 41-hole reverse circulation drilling program at its Mt Fisher gold project, with assays pending. Early sampling of a carbonaceous stockpile revealed gold grades up to 20.1 g/t, prompting further bulk sampling and metallurgical testwork to evaluate economic potential.

Benz Mining has unveiled a maiden Exploration Target for its Glenburgh Gold Project, estimating up to 12 million ounces of gold largely defined by drilling. The project’s scale and geological setting support ambitions for a world-class gold system, with aggressive drilling planned to convert the target into a Mineral Resource by 2027.

Adavale Resources has reported assay results from 13 additional drillholes at its London-Victoria gold mine, confirming and expanding gold mineralisation beneath the historic open pit. The ongoing drilling program supports a larger mineralised system along the Parkes Thrust corridor, with promising metallurgical testwork and a planned resource update.

Larvotto Resources has unveiled a substantial initial Exploration Target for the Midas Lode at its Hillgrove project, outlining a preferred 3.95 million tonnes at 5.16 g/t gold equivalent, accessible from surface and underground for near-term development.

Diatreme Resources has unveiled a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate of 102.7 million tonnes of high-purity silica sand at its Casuarina deposit, lifting its total global resource base to 632.8 million tonnes. The deposit's proximity to existing infrastructure and high silica content underpin its development potential.

Skylark Minerals has completed Phase 1 drilling at its M’Basso Prospect, defining a 750m mineralised strike and identifying a new eastern gold zone. Metallurgical tests show 95% gold extraction, supporting a straightforward processing route.

Norfolk Metals has released a JORC 2012 Mineral Resource Estimate for its Chilean Ciclón Copper Project, revealing a substantial 11.8 million tonnes at 2.88% copper equivalent, with significant exploration upside and a transaction closing targeted for August 2026.
