Latest Mineral Resource Estimation News

Kingston Resources says infill drilling at Jack’s Hut has confirmed the location and continuity of polymetallic mineralisation targeted for potential underground mining at Mineral Hill. The results will feed into a resource update, while surface drilling in October will test extensions beyond the current resource.

Titan Minerals has extended high-grade gold-silver mineralisation at its Dynasty project in Ecuador and reported broad infill results that could support resource classification upgrades. The company is adding drilling capacity ahead of a Mineral Resource Estimate and Scoping Study targeted for the first quarter of 2027.

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.

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.

Nordic Resources is heading into a key investor conference with a 1.23Moz gold-equivalent resource base, expanding Kopsa mineralisation and a near-term resource update in prospect. The company says it has A$8.5 million in cash and no debt to fund its next drilling phase.

Sun Silver has intersected silver-gold mineralisation from surface at its Maverick Silver Project in Nevada, including a higher-grade 1.5-metre zone grading 75 g/t AgEq. The results also extend the project’s antimony story and could influence future mine sequencing studies, although the shallow mineralisation remains only lightly tested.

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.

West Coast Silver has completed the main tranche of its A$6.0 million placement, raising A$5.92 million before costs for drilling, technical studies and resource updates at Elizabeth Hill. A final A$80,000 director tranche still requires shareholder approval.

Terra Metals has reported broad PGM-Cu-Ni mineralisation and repeated higher-grade reef layers from three holes at its Southwest Discovery in Western Australia. The results strengthen the geological picture ahead of a planned maiden Mineral Resource Estimate, but true widths, recoveries and resource scale remain unconfirmed.

Hot Chili has reported a 398-metre copper-gold intersection from surface at its La Verde discovery in Chile, including 62 metres at 0.91% CuEq. The results extend the case for a higher-grade starter pit, but the project remains an exploration discovery with no Mineral Resource declared.

Prodigy Gold’s check testing of 27 high-grade gold samples from Tanami North produced an almost exact match with the original Fire Assay results. The outcome supports PhotonAssay as a selective quality-control tool, but does not change the company’s mineral resource estimates.

Ordell Minerals has completed about 25,000 metres of drilling at its Barimaia gold project and begun a further 14,000-metre campaign aimed at delivering a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for McNabs East in the December 2026 quarter. The exploration push comes as the pre-revenue company reports an increased annual loss but a stronger $8.2 million cash balance after equity raisings.
