Latest Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide News

Mantle Minerals has secured a key exploration licence and acquired an adjoining tenement application, strengthening its Carlton Hill Project in WA, while advancing drilling plans at Yule River amid ongoing native title talks.

Azzuro Resources has confirmed high-grade copper-gold-zinc-silver mineralisation over nearly 550 metres of strike at its Red Hill project in Mongolia, with the system remaining open in all directions and metallurgical testing set to begin in Q3 2026.

Sunshine Metals has boosted its Liontown gold-silver resource in Queensland, increasing contained gold by 13%, silver by 21%, and overall tonnes by 28%, underpinning plans for mid-2027 gold production at the Mt Moss facility.

Kuniko Limited has started Phase 2 diamond drilling at its Commonwealth-Silica Hill Gold-Silver Project in NSW, aiming to extend high-grade mineralisation and explore a broader 5km² mineralised system. Assay results are due in September, with a resource update planned for late 2026.

Raptor Metals has validated a large-scale copper system at its Chester Project in Canada, delivering some of the broadest and highest-grade intercepts from its maiden diamond drilling program and revealing significant resource expansion potential.

Kuniko Limited is set to commence an expanded Phase 2 drilling campaign at its Commonwealth Gold-Silver Project in NSW, aiming to build on high-grade discoveries from Phase 1 and explore new targets along a 4km corridor.

Infinity Mining has reported standout rock chip assays from its Hillside Project in Western Australia, revealing copper grades up to 9.4% and silver at 163 g/t over a 9km corridor. The results open the door for drilling in a historically underexplored area near Develop Global’s Sulphur Springs deposit.

Azzuro Resources has reported robust high-grade copper-gold-zinc-silver mineralisation from its 2026 drilling at the Red Hill VMS Project, with assays confirming thicker and richer sulphide zones than previous drilling. Shallow gold zones extending over 600 metres add to the project's exploration upside.

FireFly Metals has delivered exceptional drilling results at its Green Bay Copper-Gold Project, reinforcing the continuity and scale of its high-grade core zone. These assays will feed into updated resource models and economic studies due mid-year.

Catalina Resources has completed its acquisition of the Breakaway Dam Project, gaining a promising copper-rich VMS system and underexplored lithium potential. The deal also brings Forrestania Resources onboard as a significant shareholder.

Azzuro Resources has completed its first phase of drilling at the Red Hill Copper-Gold VMS Project in Mongolia, confirming continuity of a substantial massive sulphide system and identifying a high-grade copper interval. Assays are pending as geophysical surveys prepare to refine targeting.

Raptor Metals has delivered further high-grade copper and polymetallic assay results from its Chester Project in Canada, confirming a large-scale stacked VMS system and extending mineralisation over 2.5km. These findings enhance the geological model and support resource growth potential.
