via Stockhead Firetail Resources says assays from the second #drill hole in its maiden 5,000m diamond drill program at the Combre Coya have confirmed a mineralised structure across a 170m strike length, with the strike open in all directions and at depth. Hole 23PCCD0002, collared ~140m southeast of the first hole and drilled down to 340m intersected 3.15m @ 0.16% #copper and 1.6g/t #silver from 65.25m and 2.85m @ 0.51% copper and 4.4g/t silver from 72.7m. Further #drilling at Cumbre Coya and Cobremani targets are ongoing with additional drilling planned for the Fundicion target where the company has geophysical chargeability anomalies waiting to be tested.

Phenom Resources . (TSXV: PHNM) (OTCQX: PHNMF) (FSE: 1PY0) (“Phenom” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce results from the reverse circulation drill holes RC23-17 and RC23-18 both planned as a 2,000 foot depth test of the gold system at the Carlin Gold-Vanadium Project in the Carlin Gold Trend of Nevada. RC23-17 was abandoned at 500 feet due to difficult rock conditions. RC23-18 was drilled to a depth of 1900 feet. The two holes were collared 90 metres apart, both near vertical tests and encountered a near-surface mineralized vanadium zone. Hole RC23-17 encountered the 22.86 metres (75 feet) vanadium unit starting at a depth of 74.68 metres (245 feet) and returned an average grade of 0.48% V205 Hole RC23-18 encountered the 15.24 metres (50 feet) vanadium unit starting at a depth of 3.05 metres (10 feet) and returned an average grade of 0.41% V205. True thicknesses of the two intercepts are not known. The nearest neighbour holes to RC23-17 and RC23-18 were R-128 and DDH-4 each about 90 metres away and encountered 13.7m (44 feet) @ 0.51% V205 and 7.0 m (22 feet) @ 0.91% V205%, respectively https://lnkd.in/ggmtrBea

🔊DRILL RESULTS CONFIRM HIGH-GRADE MAGMATIC SULPHIDES AT DANTE PROJECT Highlights ▶️High-grade magmatic sulphide mineralisation intercepted in first 3 holes (of 13) at Crius Reef ▶️ Mineralisation is sulphide-dominant and hosted in stratiform “reefs” which outcrop over 23km Managing Director and CEO Thomas Line commented: “The first three drillholes at the Crius Reef confirm the presence of a high-grade polymetallic magmatic sulphide system. We have drilled 30 more drillholes covering 10km outcropping strike at the Crius Reef and Hyperion Reef, and the Oceanus Reef remains to be drilled in the coming weeks. We have been drilling for almost two months now, and these results represent only the first week worth of drilling at the Dante Project. Our observations on the ground are highlighting the immense scale of the Crius Reef, the multiple developing copper opportunities at the Dante Project, and the similarities of the Dante Project to the Bushveld Complex, delivering a rare combination of grade, thickness, geometry and scale, with potential significant vanadium and titanium bi-product credits.” #asxnews #copper #nickel #PGE #mining #exploration #WestMusgrave #investing #stocks #TM1

Terra Metals Limited (ASX: #TM1)) is pleased to announce that assay results from partial sampling of the diamond core from the 2023 EIS co-funded diamond drilling program at the Onslow Project has revealed the presence of high-grade silver mineralisation. Hole OND003 intercepted a geological zone which assayed 6m @ 179g/t Ag from 160m, with a high-grade zone of 1m @ 1,060g/t Ag, 0.23% Cu and 0.99% WO3. Download the announcement here: https://lnkd.in/gtXPMpV5 Managing Director and CEO Thomas Line commented: “Intercepting high-grade silver mineralisation is a great result for a first pass reconnaissance drilling program in a frontier province. We are aware of an untested EM anomaly just to the south of the high-grade silver mineralisation and we are now reviewing available datasets to determine a model for high-sulphidation epithermal silver mineralisation, and the possibility of a porphyry source.” #silver #tungsten #copper #frontier #WesternAustralia #exploration #drilling #asxnews #investing #stockstowatch #TM1

Recently, we reported assay results from two drill holes at the Adit zone, extending mineralization an additional 200 metres below shallow historic drilling in the north and south, and to over 400 metres of strike length. Learn more: https://loom.ly/aMb2PYU $KDK.v $KDKCF #copper #exploration

$SIG.V intercepts multiple occurrences of visible gold from surface to 680m in deepest hole ever drilled at RC gold in Yukon. Hole 68 is approximately 200 metres deeper than any previous drill holes, adding substantial gold mineralization beyond previous drilling limits. https://lnkd.in/gc5gjSnr

Widening of mineralization of CV5 to 4.6km with Western Extension and high grades at depth. Final drill results from 2023 program are released by Patriot. To quote our VP of Exploration Darren Smith: "While much work has been done, in many respects it feels like we are only just beginning to unlock the potential at Corvette" https://lnkd.in/eT6uZa4B

via Stockhead Ongoing field mapping and surface sampling has identified a 2km shear zone within the southern half of the Gnaweeda greenstone belt at Meeka Metals Limited’s Murchison gold project. #MEK says this work suggests the en echelon splays within the sheared central mafic unit are the principal host of gold mineralisation and provide multiple, new and untested drill targets. The #gold-arsenic anomalism and shearing at Shaft 1 is also coincident with the interpreted en echelon splays intersected by historical #drilling, which returned shallow results including 8m @ 21.99 g/t gold from 114m, including 4m @ 39.80 g/t gold, 1.6m @ 27.48 g/t gold from 25.3m; and 1m @ 54 g/t gold from 17.2m.

Terra Metals (ASX:TM1) (“Terra” or “Company”) is pleased to announce it has completed its maiden 60-hole, 10,220m reverse circulation (“RC”) drill program at the Dante Cu-Au-PGE-Ni project in the West Musgrave region to test 4 regional targets. Key Highlights ⛏️Drill results from the first 3 drillholes at the Crius Reef confirmed the presence of high-grade magmatic sulphides, including copper, gold and platinum group elements (“PGE”). ⛏️Additional mapping and ground-truthing has identified 3 new outcropping reefs, increasing the total strike length of reefs by over 80% to 42km at the Dante Cu-Au-PGE-Ni project. ⛏️Newly identified reef targets include the Typhon Reef (10km), the Helios Reef (6km), and the Pytho Reef (3km), all in close proximity to existing mineralised reefs. ⛏️Initial findings from the maiden drill program indicate that all reefs at the Dante project are prospective for hosting stratiform magmatic Cu-Au-PGE sulphides. Read the announcement here: https://lnkd.in/gWNUXUX8 Managing Director and CEO, Mr Thomas Line, commented: “We are pleased to have successfully completed our maiden 10,220m drilling program at the Dante Cu-Au-PGE-Ni Project. The first 8 holes confirmed the presence of magmatic copper-goldPGE sulphides at the Crius Reef and Cronus Prospect. Assays are pending for the remaining 52 holes, and we look forward to reporting the remaining results as they become available. “The field team have already transitioned to on-ground reconnaissance, preparing the next round of infill and extensional drill targets. We have already increased the strike of Dante Reefs by 19km, and we anticipate definition of further magmatic sulphide targets to follow.”

Today's JORCWTF courtesy of Marquee Resources (ASX:MQR). I heartily commend the MQR field team for drilling 2,601 20cm diameter hand augers down to 1m depth. I am very familiar with hand augering, having completed a couple (hundred) of these in my lake exploration, and that was easily cuttable plasticine-quality clays with an 80mm bladed auger. A 200mm auger into sand, loamy soil, cobble lags, & c. is an entirely different beast. Given a 1m auger hole into clay is 45 minutes, I would expect that 2,601 into the knobbly nothingness of the eastern goldfields loams would be at least the same. Bravo, ladies and gents, for this herculean task. Sadly, this is all a nothingburger for lithium; the 'anomalies' are either directly associated with outcropping granites, or where they overlie greenstones, are directly associated with alluvium, colluvium, or lacustrine claypans where salt water likely concentrates alkali earth metals in calcretes. If one compares back to the Au anomalism, the anomalies line up quite well with the Li anomalies, raising questions about whether MQR should drill aircore.
