Latest Zinc News

Alvo Minerals has identified a high-conductance off-hole conductor and multiple untested targets at its Touro copper-zinc prospect in Brazil. An environmental licence now allows Phase 2 drilling across roughly 500 metres of previously inaccessible strike.

A new magnetotelluric survey has identified a large conductive anomaly beneath Strickland Metals’ Obradov Prospect in Serbia, adding another high-priority target to its 9.25Moz AuEq Rogozna project. The anomaly is supported by overlapping gravity, IP, geochemical and drilling evidence, but still requires drilling to establish whether it contains an economic mineralised system.

Daly Resources ended FY2026 with $11.05 million in cash after its $12 million IPO, but reported a $3.63 million loss dominated by share-based remuneration. The ASX-listed explorer has no defined mineral resources or ore reserves and must now convert its exploration portfolio into results.

American West Metals has reported thick visual copper, zinc and molybdenum mineralisation in three new holes at its West Desert Project in Utah. The strongest result came from WD26-07, but laboratory assays are still needed to establish grades and economic significance.

Tivan has won approval to add 50 square kilometres to its Baucau copper-gold project in Timor-Leste, securing ground over a large magnetic anomaly. The expansion comes as the company acknowledges an executive chairman’s personal X post previewed an assay announcement before ASX release and was not authorised under its disclosure policy.

Sarytogan Graphite has intersected 318 metres of copper mineralisation from surface at its Ilksan prospect in central Kazakhstan, including a higher-grade 15.2-metre zone grading 0.40% copper. The result extends the system identified in an earlier hole, with assays from a deeper 452-metre hole due in the coming weeks.

NewPeak Metals will begin a minimum 1,000-metre Phase 2 diamond drilling program at Las Opeñas in Argentina in mid-October, targeting a potentially gold-richer zone west of its recent long intercepts. The campaign is funded from the company’s completed placement, but the higher-grade western extension remains untested.

Cosmo Metals has secured approval for up to 2,200 metres of maiden drilling at the Mona copper-gold-silver prospect in New South Wales. The campaign will test whether striking grades from historic mine dumps reflect concealed sulphide mineralisation below the old workings.

Tivan has secured a 50 km² exploration concession immediately north of its Turiscai project in Timor-Leste, subject to formal regulatory grant. The addition would lift the project to eight licences covering approximately 394 km² ahead of planned maiden drilling in the fourth quarter.

Raptor Metals has identified two conductive systems across its Chester copper project, including the strongest off-hole response recorded near a high-grade drill intersection. The results give the company specific targets for follow-up drilling, but the conductors remain exploration targets rather than a resource estimate.

Terramin Australia has launched a partially underwritten $28.65 million entitlement offer to fund project development and reduce debt owed to major shareholder Asipac. The raise could also materially reshape the company’s ownership, while its prospectus flags a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

GreenTech Metals has returned its strongest multi-metre copper result to date at the Ayshia deposit, with gold, silver and zinc credits included. The intersection sits approximately 65 metres beyond the existing resource envelope, although its true width remains unconfirmed.
