Altitude Minerals has been awarded an $80,000 NSW Government grant to co-fund drilling at its T55 copper-gold porphyry target, advancing exploration at the Byrock Project in New South Wales.

Early drilling results from the Llahuin Project’s Southern Porphyry target reveal encouraging copper-gold mineralisation and key geological indicators, validating the prospect’s potential for a major discovery.

FMR Resources' maiden drillhole at the Southern Porphyry target within Chile’s Llahuin Project has intersected encouraging shallow copper-gold mineralisation, advancing towards a significant porphyry system at depth.

LinQ Minerals has kicked off maiden drilling at its Gidginbung gold deposit, delivering significant high-grade gold and copper intercepts and uncovering a new porphyry copper-gold target, marking a major step in its Gilmore Project exploration.

Solis Minerals has entered a binding agreement to acquire up to 75% of the Cucho Copper Project in Peru, a large-scale porphyry system with promising historical drilling results and significant untested exploration targets. The company plans a 5,000-metre drilling program in 2026 aiming for a maiden resource estimate and economic assessment.

Lightning Minerals has reported promising high-grade gold and silver intersections from its initial drilling at the Mt Turner Project in Queensland, confirming near-surface epithermal mineralisation and open potential along a 14km fault line.

Cannindah Resources has reported impressive trenching results at its Mt Cannindah project, revealing high-grade copper-gold mineralisation and new porphyry targets. These findings set the stage for imminent drilling campaigns aimed at unlocking further value.

Sunstone Metals has completed an extensive surface sampling campaign at its Bramaderos Gold-Copper Project in Ecuador, aiming to expand its 2.7 million ounce gold equivalent resource ahead of a scoping study. Assay results expected this month could unlock significant resource growth and new exploration avenues.

Culpeo Minerals reports promising high-grade, near-surface copper mineralisation from its maiden drilling at La Florida Prospect within the Fortuna Project in Chile, confirming a new porphyry system.

S2 Resources has significantly expanded its Jillewarra project area over a highly prospective gold shear zone and completed drilling at West Murchison, with assay results pending. Meanwhile, Glenlogan assays returned no significant mineralisation.

FMR Resources has initiated a 4,000-metre maiden diamond drilling program at the Southern Porphyry target within its Llahuin Project joint venture with Southern Hemisphere Mining in Chile. This program aims to validate geophysical models and explore a potentially large porphyry copper system.

FMR Resources has initiated a significant 4,000-metre diamond drilling program at its Southern Porphyry target within the Llahuin Project JV in Chile, aiming to validate a large porphyry copper system. Assay results from the first drillhole are expected within weeks, marking a pivotal step in the company’s exploration journey.
