Dreadnought Resources Limited announced today that RC drilling has commenced at the 100% owned Mangaroon project, located in the Gascoyne Region of Western Australia. RC drilling is currently underway at Yin, which will build upon the current Resource as well as testing the Exploration Target along strike.

A second RC rig and a diamond rig will commence in March 2023 and will focus on the first pass, wide-spaced drilling of the C1-C7 carbonatites. The diamond rig will provide ongoing support for Resource upgrades, metallurgical testwork and geotechnical studies.

Ora Banda Mining Limited announced today an updated estimate of Mineral Resources and a maiden Ore Reserve for its Riverina Underground. 

De Grey Mining Limited reported an exploration update from RC drilling at Withnell and Withnell South areas around the known mineralised trends at the Withnell gold deposit, located within the Mallina Gold Project, Pilbara region, Western Australia. Exploration activities within the Company’s broader tenement portfolio have been conducted in parallel with the resource definition drilling at the Hemi deposits in support of the on-going discovery and mineral resource expansion program of the Mallina Gold Project.

Navarre Minerals Limited reported today further strong gold, silver and copper results returned from ongoing resource definition and exploration drilling within its wholly owned 850km2 Mt Carlton operation in north Queensland. The latest drill intercepts are from depth and strike extensions to the existing V2 and A39 orebodies and from the satellite Mt Carlton United (MCU) deposit.

Red 5 Limited advised today that underground drilling at the recently commissioned King of the Hills (KOTH) Gold Mine, part of the Company’s Eastern Goldfields gold mining hub operations in Western Australia, has delivered positive results, further defining current Ore Reserves that underpin the FY23 and FY24 mine plan and identifying new targets for potential Resource extensions. The significant assay results, received from 45,154 metres of underground drilling undertaken during CY2022, have been recorded across several key mining areas in the KOTH Underground

White Cliff Minerals Limited announced an update on the Company’s Hines Hill REE project in the Wheatbelt region, WA, where maiden air core drilling has discovered mineralised REE clays from the surface. The results are incredibly positive, and further geochemical sampling over the remaining magnetic features has also been completed to grow the project's potential. The Company has also undertaken a maiden geochemical sampling program over E70/6136, an addition to the Hines Hill project area, which is contiguous to the west and increases the project size to ~576km2

Norwest Minerals Limited announced today it had received the assay results for the 33 RC drill holes (3,886m) completed at its 100% owned Bali Copper Project in Western Australia. The Bali Copper Project comprises approximately 8 kilometres of the Bali shear zone, a significant structure extending through the region and hosting numerous copper and other base metal prospects. The RC drilling targeted four priority prospects, with many holes returning wide copper intercepts grading ≥ 0.2% with 16 individual metres assaying ≥ 3% copper and the highest being 11.2% Copper.

Shallow aircore drilling has intersected broad zones of high-grade gold outside the Mineral Resource on the Western Flank of Turnberry (610,000oz @ 1.7g/t Au), part of the Murchison Gold Project, results include:

Calidus Resources Limited announced today strong drilling results which highlight the potential for an open-pit operation at its Blue Spec East prospect in the Pilbara. The results come from the RC drilling campaign conducted in December 2021 and January 2022 . Assay results, including multi-element geochemistry, have been received now for all drill holes. The results better defined the shape of previously identified intersections and confirm that known mineralisation at depth continues to near the surface where it may be amenable to open-pit mining.

• The total Mineral Resources (Indicated and Inferred) at the Cue Project increased 41% to: 12.3Mt @ 2.3g/t gold for 927,000 ounces

Musgrave Minerals Ltd today reported a significant Mineral Resource estimate update on its 100% owned tenure at the Company’s flagship Cue Gold Project in Western Australia’s Murchison district
