Latest Seismic Surveys News

Melbana Energy is poised to resume 100% ownership of its Cuban Block 9 after its partner Sonangol defaulted on US$23.5 million in cash calls. Fresh seismic data and well results have refined reservoir understanding, derisking future drilling plans.

Altitude Minerals has completed extensive gravity and passive seismic surveys over its Byrock Project in NSW, validating key copper-gold porphyry targets and setting the stage for follow-up RC drilling in 2026.

European Resources Limited has more than doubled the inferred resource at its Korsnäs rare earth elements project in Finland to 15.4 million tonnes at 1.00% total rare earth oxides, driven by new drilling, re-assaying of historical core, and a refined geological model.

Elixir Energy and APA Group have partnered to assess the optimal pipeline route for gas from the Lorelle pilot project to Queensland’s Wallumbilla Gas Hub, aiming to support future development decisions.

Patagonia Lithium Ltd (ASX:PL3) has reported exceptional porosity and specific yield results from Well Six at its Formentera Lithium Brine Project in Argentina, alongside a lithium assay of 412ppm. These findings support a sustainable pumping rate of approximately 160,000 litres per hour and underpin plans for an updated Mineral Resource Estimate.

Macallum New Energy has progressed its seismic exploration in the North Perth Basin with the Barberton 3D survey underway and Condor 2D survey approved, while appointing Greenwood Capital Partners to enhance its UK and European market presence.

Patagonia Lithium Ltd (ASX:PL3) has announced positive exploration results from Well JAM 25-05 at its Formentera Lithium Project in Argentina, with core analysis revealing porosity values above regional averages and lithium assays ranging from 156ppm to 219ppm. These findings may support an expansion of the company’s Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE).

Patagonia Lithium has reported robust 72-hour pump test results from its Formentera lithium brine project, signalling promising aquifer connectivity and flow rates that support upcoming production targets.

Elixir Energy has successfully completed its Teelba 2D seismic survey in Queensland’s Taroom Trough, acquiring critical data that could underpin a new contingent gas-condensate resource.

Mantle Minerals has identified nine priority drill targets at its Yule River Project following detailed gravity and passive seismic surveys, setting the stage for a planned drilling campaign in the second quarter of 2026.

Patagonia Lithium has reported lithium assay results up to 412ppm from its Formentera well, surpassing the project average and setting the stage for an updated Mineral Resource Estimate and further drilling.

Bass Oil has initiated advanced seismic reprocessing and geochemical analyses to better define the Kiwi gas field’s extent and boost its recovery prospects, with results expected by mid-2026.
