Aruma Resources Limited (ASX: AAJ) has announced plans to commence the next phase of exploration following significant high-grade gallium assay results at its Saltwater Project in Western Australia's Pilbara region.

Key Highlights:

  • Recent sampling at the Talmine Prospect returned exceptional gallium grades, including:

    • 136.05g/t Ga2O3

    • 60.87g/t Ga2O3

    • Multiple samples exceeding 30g/t Ga2O3.

  • The next exploration phase will include:

    • Infill and extensional soil sampling to refine drill targets.

    • Further reconnaissance and rock chip sampling within the Talmine corridor.

    • Analysis of satellite, hyperspectral data, and gold/base metal indicators.

    • Reprocessing existing geophysical data for enhanced geological targeting.

  • A drill-ready gold target has also been identified at the Terceira Prospect, with initial drilling planned following required approvals.

Managing Director Grant Ferguson noted, “The high-grade gallium results at Talmine highlight significant potential. Our upcoming exploration aims to further understand the project's geological structures and define drill-ready targets.”

The Saltwater Project, strategically located within the mineral-rich Ashburton Basin, positions Aruma effectively to capitalize on the growing demand for critical minerals like gallium.
