Patagonia Lithium has reached 335 metres depth in its Formentera lithium brine drilling program in Argentina, successfully collecting brine and core samples for detailed analysis. The company plans further drilling and geophysical surveys to refine its Mineral Resource Estimate.

Patagonia Lithium has reported successful initial brine extraction and core sampling at its Formentera lithium project in Argentina, marking steady progress in its drilling campaign. Early results indicate favorable porosity and brine characteristics that support ongoing exploration efforts.

FMR Resources’ drilling at the Llahuin Project’s Southern Porphyry target has confirmed copper-bearing veining and potassic alteration above the main geophysical anomaly, reinforcing exploration models despite a temporary pause in drilling.

Patagonia Lithium prepares to drill a key lithium well in Argentina while advancing rare earth exploration in Brazil, backed by recent funding and promising early results.

Connected Minerals has kicked off its Phase 2 reverse circulation drilling at the Ondapanda Prospect within Namibia’s Etango North-East Uranium Project, building on promising Phase 1 results that revealed multiple economic-grade uranium intersections.

Core Energy Minerals has made promising progress in its maiden drilling campaign at the Cummins Uranium Project in South Australia, identifying uranium mineralisation in both weathered basement and palaeochannel sediments. Initial gamma and scintillometer readings support a developing roll-front uranium model, with assay results pending.

Catalina Resources has launched a reverse circulation drilling campaign at its Laverton project, aiming to extend high-grade rare earth and gold mineralisation just 2km from the Mt Weld mine. The program seeks to confirm structural links to one of the world’s richest rare earth deposits.

Golden Horse Minerals has initiated a significant diamond drilling campaign at its Hopes Hill gold project, aiming to deepen geological insights and expand high-grade mineralisation zones with government-backed support.

S2 Resources reports encouraging gold-arsenic anomalies from reconnaissance drilling at its Yeungroon project in Victoria, while drilling at Glenlogan in NSW faces delays. Assays from Fosterville are awaited, underscoring a busy exploration pipeline.

Dynamic Metals has launched Phase 2 drilling at its Cognac West gold prospect, aiming to expand on encouraging early results from Phase 1. Assay results expected in July will be pivotal for the project's next steps.

Koonenberry Gold has expanded the known strike of the Sunnyside gold system at its Enmore Project in NSW to over 230 metres, with visible gold observed in seven of nine drill holes. The company plans further drilling, supported by a strong cash position, to explore the system’s full potential.

Arika Resources is set to recommence a significant 6,000m reverse circulation drilling program at its Yundamindra Gold Project, targeting extensions at Pennyweight Point and Landed at Last prospects following recent high-grade gold discoveries.
