Culpeo Minerals has started a four-hole, 2,000-metre maiden diamond drilling programme at Vista Montana, testing a copper-molybdenum target north-east of its Lana Corina discovery. The company is also using IP surveys to refine targets, while assays from El Quillay South returned several narrow copper-gold intersections.

Kali Metals has reported a 2.36-metre intersection grading 10.8g/t gold from just 8.7 metres at its Marble Bar project in Western Australia. The Phase II results extend the shallow gold system across a cumulative 3km strike, but the project remains at the exploration stage with no mineral resource yet defined.

Metal Hawk has highlighted a shallow, high-grade gold intercept at the Numbat lode in Western Australia, with the structure remaining open along strike and at depth. Follow-up drilling is due to resume shortly, but the discovery remains an exploration result rather than a defined resource.

Sky Metals has identified high-grade tungsten mineralisation at the Theirman Mines Prospect, 20 kilometres north of its Tallebung project in NSW. The results validate historical sampling and move the prospect towards drilling within weeks, although the evidence remains limited to surface rock chips.

Recharge Metals has identified materially higher tungsten grades in selected re-assayed pulps from its Brandy Hill South copper project in Western Australia. The results strengthen the case for a broad Cu-W-Mo system, but the most important evidence still sits in more than 1,000 samples awaiting testing.

TechGen Metals has wrapped up diamond drilling at its Blue Devil Project in East Kimberley, intersecting pyrite-rich sedimentary rocks and quartz-carbonate-pyrite zones that hint at an intrusive-related gold system. Initial assay results are due next month, potentially setting the stage for further exploration.

Native Mineral Resources (ASX:NMR) has reported robust initial assay results from its North Pit drilling at Blackjack, Queensland, highlighting significant gold mineralisation with broad high-grade intervals.

Great Boulder Resources has reported a fresh wave of high-grade drill results at its Peak Hill Gold Project, reinforcing plans for a significant resource upgrade and near-term production underpinned by an ore purchase deal with Westgold.

Forrestania Resources has vaulted into a new league with a global gold resource exceeding 2 million ounces following its acquisition of the Edna May Gold Project, which brings significant processing infrastructure and development potential.

Brightstar Resources has unveiled spectacular high-grade gold intercepts at its Bull Oak deposit, including a standout 7 metres at 119g/t Au, as it ramps up efforts for a Pre-Feasibility Study on its Sandstone Gold Project.

Clara Resources is set to kick off a maiden drilling campaign at its Mareeba Gold Project, marking the first drilling activity since the late 1980s. The program, fully funded by a $1.165 million placement, targets historic high-grade gold zones and aims to establish a maiden JORC Mineral Resource.

Right Resources has boosted its Blue Prospect gold target with a standout 5.16 g/t rock-chip assay, refining a 4 km gold corridor and setting the stage for maiden drilling in September.
