Latest Resource Development News

Alma Metals has revealed a robust 2 million tonne copper resource at its Briggs Project in Central Queensland, setting the stage for a major drilling campaign and pre-feasibility study amid a tightening global copper market.

Marquee Resources has announced a substantial 69% increase in its Mt Clement (Eastern Hills) inferred mineral resource, now containing 11,000 tonnes of antimony equivalent metal, positioning the project as a key player in Australia's critical minerals landscape.

Resolution Minerals has reported final assay results from its 2025 drilling campaign at the Golden Gate prospects in Idaho, revealing extensive near-surface gold mineralisation alongside significant tungsten intercepts. The findings confirm the potential for a large, open-ended gold-tungsten deposit, setting the stage for accelerated exploration in 2026.

Terra Metals has confirmed a large, high-grade platinum group metals (PGM) sulfide system at its Southwest SW6 Prospect, revealing thick mineralisation open at depth and a compelling new platinum-rich zone. This discovery expands the scale and complexity of the Dante Project’s magmatic system, setting the stage for an ambitious drilling campaign.

Viking Mines has revealed a significant expansion of its Linka Tungsten Project in Nevada, doubling the known mineralised strike to 1.6km and confirming high-grade surface tungsten samples up to 1.5% WO3. This data integration unlocks a broader regional exploration opportunity beneath volcanic cover.

Norwest Minerals has reported robust gold assay results from its Phase 2 drilling at the Bulgera Gold Project, confirming mineralisation continuity at depth and setting the stage for a resource upgrade.

Silver Mines Limited has secured land access to the Coomber Silver Prospect, reviving exploration on a site with significant historic silver intercepts. The company is advancing reconnaissance work to unlock the potential of this largely underexplored caldera near its flagship Bowdens Silver Project.

Viridis Mining and Minerals reports strong infill and exploration drilling results at its Colossus Rare Earth Element Project, underpinning a resource upgrade and enhanced project economics. The company advances feasibility, permitting, and financing towards a Final Investment Decision in Q3 2026.

Golden Horse Minerals has kicked off its 2026 drilling campaign at Hopes Hill with visible gold intersected in the first diamond hole, prompting an accelerated and expanded drilling program.

Altitude Minerals has successfully drilled the T55 Target at its Byrock Project in New South Wales, confirming a copper-gold porphyry system consistent with the Macquarie Arc extension. This milestone supports advancing their earn-in agreement and sets the stage for further exploration.

Gateway Mining is set to begin a major drilling campaign at its Great Western prospect, following promising geological mapping that highlights a potentially significant gold system in Western Australia’s Yandal Gold Project.

The Central Tanami Project joint venture between MGX Resources and Tanami Gold NL reports a 2.8 million ounce gold resource, progressing towards production with key infrastructure upgrades and exploration drilling underway.
