Latest Mining Drilling Results News

Yandal Resources (ASX:YRL) has reported significant new gold intercepts at its Arrakis Prospect, confirming continuity and high-grade zones, while diamond drilling at Flushing Meadows reveals promising fresh rock mineralisation below the existing 268,000-ounce resource.

Right Resources’ drilling at the Pilot Project in Tumbarumba validates a large Reduced Intrusive Related Gold System, with assays highlighting low grades in the transitional halo but confirming the presence of a substantial mineralised footprint. The high-grade core remains untested, marking a key exploration focus.

Lac Gold has reported standout high-grade gold intersections at its Astoria deposit within the Rouyn Gold Project, including a blistering 0.5m intercept grading 1,580g/t Au. These results underpin a structurally complex, large-scale orogenic system and come as Phase 2 drilling ramps up.

Saturn Metals has delivered robust new drilling results at the Titan Lode within its Apollo Hill gold project, expanding the mineralised footprint and confirming Titan as a key shallow mineralised centre. The results set the stage for a resource update later this year.

White Cliff Minerals has extended its Danvers copper mineralisation footprint to over 1.8km strike, revealing multiple thick, high-grade zones including bornite-rich sulphides along new fault contacts.

Zenith Minerals’ latest 10-hole RC drilling campaign at its Consolidated Dulcie Gold Project validates mineralisation continuity and extends gold lodes beyond previous resource limits, setting the stage for a more ambitious follow-up drilling program.

Somerset Minerals has unveiled high-grade copper results up to 9.26% from its 2026 diamond drilling at Jura, Nunavut, while gearing up for maiden drilling at the extensive Talisker anomaly, signalling a busy exploration year ahead.

Lachlan Star has delivered further high-grade gold hits from its maiden diamond drilling at New Waverley, confirming a shallow, continuous quartz vein system with strike potential beyond 800 metres. A substantial reverse circulation drilling campaign is poised to expand the discovery.

Golden Horse Minerals has revealed high-grade gold mineralisation extending over 3km at its Hopes Hill deposit, with recent drilling hitting standout intercepts including 12m at 7.0 g/t Au from 278m. The company is pressing ahead with an aggressive multi-rig 2026 drilling program to expand and refine the resource.

Basin Energy’s maiden drilling at Newmans has uncovered thick, shallow, and high-grade rare earth mineralisation, validating a new geological model focused on preserved weathering zones over fertile granites.

Xpedra Resources continues to hit broad, shallow gold zones at its Springfield Gold Deposit in NSW, with a standout 52-metre intercept at 1.35g/t gold reinforcing the project's scale and potential for expansion.

NewPeak Metals’ maiden drilling at Tansey Gold Project reveals gold mineralisation extending beyond historic South Burnett mine boundaries and uncovers a previously unknown parallel structure, setting the stage for targeted resource drilling.
