Outstanding drill results from Fletcher Zone at Beta Hunt Mine Westgold (the Company) is pleased to provide an overview of the Beta Hunt Mine and an update for the Stage 3 Resource Definition drilling program at the Fletcher Zone discovery - located within the Beta Hunt operation at the Company's Southern Goldfields Operations. Assays from the next eight holes of the Fletcher Stage 3 program at Beta Hunt have been received. Significant intersections include: - 4.00m @ 22.45g/t Au in hole WF440N1-01AR - 5.00m @ 10.95g/t Au in hole WF440N1-21AE - 5.20m @ 10.13g/t Au in hole WF440N1-02AR - 8.00m @ 5.26g/t Au in hole WF440N1-01AR - 7.00m @ 7.97g/t Au in hole WF440N1-21AE - 6.00m @ 6.39g/t Au in hole WF440N1-04AR - 15.00m @ 3.07g/t Au in hole WF440N1-3AR Westgold Managing Director and CEO Wayne Bramwell commented: “The Fletcher Zone is key to expanding gold production at Beta Hunt. It is a proximate, parallel lode to the existing 1.6Moz Western Flanks system and Westgold is currently advancing decline development from Western Flanks towards Fletcher to access a new mining front. "Accelerating drilling will rapidly unlock value at Fletcher. To date Fletcher has only 32 drill holes into this emerging 2km long target and Westgold is now mobilising an additional two drill rigs to Beta Hunt to accelerate this program. Westgold looks forward to expanding production at Beta Hunt and delivering a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for the emerging Fletcher Zone in late Q2 / early Q3 FY25.” Full announcement https://lnkd.in/gepBjeQy #westgold #unlockingvalue #gold

⛏ Drilling is underway at Mt Palmer. Kula Gold has commenced an RC Drill program (to test the down plunge, along strike extensions to the historically known orebody) at the Company’s 51% acquired Mt Palmer #Gold Mine located near Marvel Loch WA in the Southern Cross Goldfields. 🗣 Kula’s Managing Director Ric Dawson comments:  “This historically rich ‘half ounce’ gold mine has had ~200 work hours of analysis by Kula’s technical team and shows solid targets for high-grade Gold mineralisation extending down plunge." 🔘 The historic Mt Palmer Gold Mine (formerly Yellowdine Mine) was last commercially mined in 1944 down to the 6th Level (~160m) at 15.9 grams/tonne. 🔘 Significant desktop work has progressed on the surrounding tenements to test the full extent of the 10km long greenstone belt with high priority targets to discover high-grade Gold mineralisation. 🔘 15km from the Marvel Loch Gold processing plant and infrastructure, and 90kms from the Edna May Gold plant, aligns with Kula’s strategy of exploring near to existing operations to fast track any discovery to monetary success. The mine lease and surrounding areas have excellent exploration potential for the discovery of additional deposits, given limited systematic exploration to date. ⚙ More details below. #goldexploration #exploration #mining #westernaustralia #southerncross #drilling

Congratulations to GOLD FIELDS on its acquisition of Minière Osisko / Osisko Mining and the Windfall Project. Our Canadian team holds a special place in its heart for Windfall having drilled the deepest diamond drilling hole (3,467 meters) in Canada there on Jan. 26, 2020. The Discovery 1 hole was a triumph of teamwork among drillers, geologists and leadership. Two years in the making, Osisko requested the powerful EF-100 deep drill rig for the hole during initial discussions in 2018. Extensive prep work ensured the rig, tower, wireline hoist, comb, and other major components could handle the rigors of drilling such a hole, including pouring a cement pad for stability and cleanliness. Unique to the approach was the flat starting angle. The initial hole (OSK-W-19-1944) began May 10, 2019, -56-degrees. The team initially drilled to 812 meters, but the hole deviated too much. Working closely together with the geology team, on May 30, teams restarted from the collar (OSK-W-19-1970) at -51 degrees, then drilled to 3,467 meters. The hole ended at -28 degrees, and history was made. Our best to Gold Fields as it takes the reins of Windfall and continues to advance the Project. #QualitySafetyResults #MajorDrilling #GoldFields

The final three drill holes from a recent reverse circulation (RC) drill program by Astral Resources at the Kamperman Prospect within the #Feysville #Gold Project in WA, further support the company’s geological interpretation of a broad, 30-metre-wide zone of consistent high-grade gold mineralisation. These results come as Astral prepares a maiden mineral resource estimate (MRE) for Kamperman, which it expects to report in the current quarter as part of an updated MRE for the broader Feysville Project.   Best results from the final three drill holes from the 26-hole (2,808 metres) RC infill and extensional drilling program at #Kamperman include 10 metres at 5.04 g/t gold from 99 metres and 32 metres at 2.13 g/t from 125 metres.  More at #Proactive #ProactiveInvestors #AAR #ASXgold http://ow.ly/twZR105FPGU

𝐙𝐈𝐌 𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐆 We’ve now begun follow-up discovery drilling at Hillside Prospect 2. It’s another key milestone in a rapid period of progress for Kavango. Our drilling/surveying so far suggests Prospect 2 presents the opportunity for both long-term bulk-mining & near-term open-pit gold operations. The next 2 holes – along with ongoing IP surveying – are designed to confirm this. Our last hole (BRD001) intercepted a shallow, 7.2m gold mineralised zone within historical workings returning an average grade of 9.96g/t. We believe this zone is much larger under cover. Our next holes (BRD002 & BRD003, pictured) will follow the 162m strike extent we’ve mapped from surface (pictured) to test this. https://lnkd.in/e-NgsmCk #Kavango #Kav #Zimbabwe #gold

We are thrilled to announce the results of our inaugural diamond drilling campaign at the Alotta gold-copper-molybdenum target in west-central Yukon. The first two drill holes have intercepted 211.65 metres grading 0.46 grams per tonne gold, confirming the presence of extensive porphyry style mineralization. This milestone marks a significant achievement for Benjamin Hill Mining Corp., reinforcing our belief in the Alotta project's potential based on the initial geochemical anomaly observations. The findings from holes ALT-23-01 and ALT-23-02 not only exceed our expectations but also pave the way for our next phase of exploration. Planned to recommence in May 2024, the follow-up drilling program will focus on areas with coincident copper, molybdenum, and gold in soil geochemical anomalies, hinting at the potential centers of porphyry mineralization. Lorne Warner, our President, expressed his excitement over these positive results, highlighting the reinforcement of our initial thesis by the maiden drill program. Meanwhile, Russell Ball, Strategic Advisor, pointed out the significance of these findings, emphasizing Alotta's potential as a "company-maker" with its over four-square-kilometre gold-copper-molybdenum geochemical footprint. As we continue to explore and advance the Alotta project, we remain committed to upholding the highest standards of quality assurance and control in our drilling processes, ensuring the integrity and reliability of our results. #BenjaminHillMining #AlottaProject Cole M.

Phoenix Copper Limited (AIM:PXC, OTCQX:PXCLF) has reported good gold indications from exploratory drilling on its huge acreage at Navarre Creek in Idaho. Four areas were targeted with intercepts at two said to be “of significance”. Lehman Creek, in particular, showed a continuous zone of low-grade gold mineralisation intercepted up to a width of 22.9 metres, Phoenix added the mineralised zone is open along strike and down-dip.  Ryan McDermott, chief executive, said: "Navarre Creek is a vast exploration zone. “We initially selected four target areas, and it is very encouraging to note that two of those areas have returned mineralization of significance, worthy of further follow-up.  The initial drilling results in Target Area 1 were considered significant enough that we expanded the Navarre Creek claim block to the southwest by an additional 400 acres, bringing the total claim block size to 3,977 acres (16.09 km²)....
