Nimy Commences Drilling at High-Grade Block 3 Gallium Prospect
Konrad Forrest
14 May 2025 | Perth, WA – Nimy Resources (ASX:NIM) has launched its Phase 2 drilling program at the high-grade Block 3 gallium discovery, part of the company’s extensive Mons Project in Western Australia.
The campaign targets the recently defined Block 3 Central anomaly, with the aim of extending mineralisation along strike and at depth. The 3-week program is expected to support the establishment of a Maiden JORC Resource, a key milestone for the emerging gallium project.
Key Highlights:
-
Drilling to expand on previously identified near-surface gallium mineralisation.
-
Focus on testing new high-priority targets within the broader 3km x 1.5km Block 3 zone.
-
Metallurgical testing underway at Curtin University following CSIRO’s confirmation of high-grade gallium (400–800g/t) in chlorite.
-
Phase 3 drilling to follow upon interpretation of Phase 2 results.
Managing Director Luke Hampson said:
“This program is a key step toward defining a world-class gallium deposit. Interest from potential customers reinforces the strategic importance of our progress at Block 3.”
The Mons Project spans over 3,000km² in the Yilgarn Craton, offering multi-commodity potential including gallium, copper, nickel, cobalt, gold and PGEs. Nimy continues to advance exploration in collaboration with CSIRO and Curtin University.
