Latest Silver And Gold News

Altitude Minerals is abandoning its Byrock copper-gold earn-in after disappointing assays and redirecting exploration towards drill-ready silver and gold targets in Nevada. The pivot comes with $817,000 in cash, 1.5 quarters of estimated funding and further capital still to be secured.

Yugo Metals has secured six-year access to the private land covering its planned Petrovo drill sites in Bosnia and Herzegovina, paying EUR300,000 and issuing 18 million escrowed shares. An IP survey is due to begin next week, with drilling planned for the fourth quarter subject to approvals.

BMC Minerals has intersected significant silver, zinc, gold, copper and lead mineralisation in all nine reported holes at the Rhyolite Peak prospect, 1.2km from its proposed ABM mine. Six further assays are pending as the company moves toward completing its 20,000m 2026 drilling program.

Alma Metals is pushing the Briggs Copper Project through a substantial drilling and metallurgical program, with a 2027 resource update planned to support a prefeasibility study. The project’s 932Mt resource contains about 2Mt of copper, but the company still faces the usual funding, technical and development hurdles of a large undeveloped mine.

Patriot Resources has established a 31.4 million-ounce silver-equivalent inferred resource at its Tassa project in Peru, but the company's annual report warns that further capital raising is required to sustain operations. The explorer recorded a $4.82 million loss and remains dependent on final drilling approvals.

Mithril Silver and Gold has lifted the higher-confidence portion of its Copalquin Target 1 resource to 464,000 ounces of gold equivalent, giving the Mexican project a stronger base for mine planning. The upgrade comes alongside a larger loss, substantial exploration spending and an auditor’s warning that further funding is needed to support the company’s going-concern status.

Renegade Exploration has sharpened its portfolio around Nevada and Yukon exploration, with several targets moving towards drilling after high-grade surface results. But the ASX-listed junior ended FY2026 with just $59,869 in cash and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

American West Metals expanded its Storm copper resource and reported a major indium-zinc-gold intersection at West Desert during FY2026. But the ASX-listed explorer remains reliant on further funding, with the auditor flagging material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

Manhattan Gold has extended the search footprint at its Jaws target in Nunavut after a 275-metre step-out returned 21.34 metres at 1.72g/t gold. The result takes drill-tested strike to 1.25km, although the company says true widths remain unknown and the work is still exploration-stage.

Anax Metals has reported broad, high-grade copper-equivalent intersections at Mons Cupri, including 85.90 metres at 2.89% CuEq. The results support the existing resource model and early mining sequence as Anax works towards financing, FEED completion and a potential Final Investment Decision.

Catalina Resources has executed the mining lease transfer for its Nelson Bay River project, paving the way for up to $1.29 million in rehabilitation security to be recovered. The company plans to redirect the capital into November drilling at its Kirkalocka gold and Tallering tungsten projects, subject to final heritage clearance and regulatory steps.

Altitude Minerals has secured a $1.215 million placement and plans a further $1.487 million rights issue to fund drilling at its Nevada gold-silver projects. The raising offers free options, but shareholders who do not participate in the non-renounceable offer face dilution.
