Latest Mining Drilling Campaigns News

Tolu Minerals has more than doubled its reported gold resources to 1.33 million ounces after declaring a maiden 293,000-ounce resource at Mt Penck in Papua New Guinea. The project also carries a largely untested copper-gold porphyry target, but its proposed A$30 million exploration program still requires separate funding.

Tolu Minerals has increased the Tolukuma gold resource by 81% to 909,000 ounces after four months of full-scale drilling, pushing its reported Papua New Guinea gold inventory above one million ounces. The proposed early 2027 restart now has a larger resource base, but remains dependent on infrastructure, technical work and conversion of resources into mineable reserves.

BPM Minerals has kicked off a record 20,000m reverse circulation drilling campaign at its Forelands Gold Project in Western Australia, targeting a maiden JORC-compliant resource at Beachcomber and preparing for maiden drilling at Bonnie & Clyde.

Dalaroo Metals is gearing up to launch a 20,000-metre drilling campaign at its Bondoukou Gold Project in Côte d’Ivoire, starting with a 10,000-metre Reverse Circulation program at the Wilfred Target in August 2026.

Arika Resources has launched a significant +20,000m drilling campaign at its Kookynie Gold Project, following surface rock chip assays hitting up to 109g/t gold and confirming new high-grade targets.

BPM Minerals is set to embark on a record 20,000m drilling campaign at its Forelands Gold Project in WA, targeting maiden resource estimates and testing a major gold anomaly with strong geological promise.

Tolu Minerals has revealed two new high-grade gold vein discoveries at its Tolukuma Gold Mine in Papua New Guinea, underpinning an ambitious near-mine drilling campaign aimed at boosting resource growth.

Aruma Resources has wrapped up Phase 1 diamond drilling at its Tillex Copper-Silver Project in Ontario, delivering critical geological data and setting the stage for a more extensive Phase 2 campaign targeting a substantial copper resource.

Great Western Exploration is set to begin a 3,000m air core drilling campaign at its Diorama copper-gold target in Western Australia, marking a key step in its broader Yerrida North Project exploration.

Altair Minerals has launched a major 12-month, 30,000m drilling campaign at its Greater Oko Project in Guyana, focusing on validating historic high-grade gold trenches at North Peters and exploring a large untested anomaly at South Oko.

Caprice Resources has kicked off an ambitious 50,000-metre drilling campaign across its Murchison Gold Projects, aiming to define a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate and uncover new high-grade gold zones.

Caprice Resources has initiated the air core drilling phase of its fully funded 20,000m Phase 4 campaign at the Island Gold Project, targeting extensions of the Vadrians deposit and new gold-bearing formations. This multi-rig effort aims to advance the project towards a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate amid strong regional gold prospects.
