Latest Silver Resources News

Antares Metals delivered its busiest exploration year yet, reporting high-grade copper, uranium and gold results across Queensland and Western Australia. But the explorer ended FY2026 with just $581,438 in cash, while its auditor flagged a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

Barton Gold has moved deeper into development after raising $40.9 million, completing its largest-ever drilling campaign and ending FY2026 with $31.9 million in cash. The progress came alongside a $22.4 million loss as spending accelerated across Tunkillia, Challenger, Tolmer and Wudinna.

Investigator Silver has begun a fully funded 30,000-metre drilling campaign at its Paris Silver Project in South Australia, targeting resource growth and extensions beyond the current mine plan. Assay results will arrive progressively, making the next few months a test of whether recent high-grade hits can translate into a larger, higher-confidence mineral inventory.

Barton Gold has reported broad, shallow high-grade gold intersections from its 39,000-metre Phase 2 drilling program at Tunkillia, including 11 metres at 8.73g/t gold. Final assays are still pending before updated gold and silver resources, with the pre-feasibility study targeted for Q1 CY27.

Talonx Resources has identified copper and broader base-metal exploration potential across its 1,000km² Kihabe Project in Botswana, supported by historical copper intersections and established zinc-lead-silver resources. The immediate task is to turn an exploration thesis into drill-ready targets, with no new drilling or copper resource reported in the announcement.

Argent Minerals has kicked off its first-ever drilling campaign at the Trunkey Creek Gold Project in New South Wales, targeting a priority zone within a 4.7km gold-mineralised corridor beneath historic workings.

Sun Silver continues to reveal extensive silver and antimony mineralisation at its Nevada Maverick Silver Project, with drill hole MV0004 hitting 89 metres at 70g/t silver equivalent and substantial antimony intervals above the current resource.

Argent Minerals has secured regulatory approval to launch its first-ever drilling program at the Trunkey Creek Gold Project in NSW, targeting a 4.7km high-grade gold corridor. The initial 1,000m Phase 1 campaign aims to test priority underground targets beneath historic workings.

Black Bear Minerals (ASX: BKB) has raised $12.5 million through a placement at a 16% discount to fund underground drilling and resource validation at its Shafter Silver Project in Texas, signaling strong institutional support for advancing mine restart plans.

Investigator Silver has hit a key development milestone, lodging a Mining Lease Application for its Paris Silver Project in South Australia. This step follows extensive technical work and stakeholder engagement, setting the stage for approvals and project development in 2027.

Barton Gold has expanded its Tolmer silver discovery in South Australia, delivering multiple high-grade silver and gold assay results from a recent 3,677m drilling program. The western silver zone now stretches over 500 metres, while the eastern gold zone shows broad, high-grade gold mineralisation. Metallurgical testwork is set to begin, aiming to clarify recoverability and support resource modelling.

Stavely Minerals has released an updated 2026 Scoping Study for its Thursday's Gossan project in western Victoria, revealing a robust 60Mt copper-gold-silver resource and strong financial metrics including a pre-tax NPV7 of A$818 million and a 40% IRR.
