Gateway Mining’s Yandal project landscape. Credit: File Gateway Mining (ASX: GML) is picking up the pace of exploration across its West Australian targeting the same lithological contact that hosts the well-proven and seemingly ubiquitous high-grade gold mineralisation Haflinger targets, where a 4.5km shear corridor has opened up large dilational zones that look ripe for mineralisation significant intrusive body adds icing to the cake as it is likely to have been the source of heat and mineralising

Western Mines latest EIS grant will co-fund drilling a target zone at least 1500m deep in the main Mulga Credit: File Western Mines Group (ASX: WMG) has been granted two applications under the WA Government and an extensive nickel sulphide mineral system within the Mulga Tank ultramafic complex. Previous EIS awards have been instrumental in the discovery of an extensive nickel sulphide mineral system The outcome of this work is reflected in the company’s giant mineral resource modelling released two

Ora Banda Mining is on track to achieve steady-state production at its Riverina underground gold mine near Kalgoorlie in the June quarter with capital projects complete and first stopes to be mined next for the stoping phase, while the extensional drilling has been important to define the limits of the mineralisation The diamond drilling from the underground rig continues to define and extend the mineralisation at Riverina and further supports our view that this is very early days in unlocking a big mineralised and high-grade

Ora Banda Mining is confident it has identified the potential site for its next underground gold mine says the holes were designed to follow up historical drilling from the 1980s that showed potential for mineralisation Management says the latest results have extended Sand King’s mineralisation more than 50m deeper than Ora Banda Mining managing director Luke Creagh Earlier this year, Ora Banda settled a $10 million deal It appears that in Ora Banda’s case, two mines could be better than one.

directions and a second-phase diamond drilling program has already kicked off to target extensions to the mineralisation The intersection is about 200m down-dip of the planned open pit and shows the mineralised system continues Ora Banda says the presence of both lithium and high-grade gold shows the potential for two styles of mineralisation with complementary geometries for possible future open-pit mining. Lithium mineralisation was observed in drill spoil during the field-mapping exercise and pegmatites were

Ora Banda Mining (ASX: OBM) has further bolstered its bank balance after pocketing $11.71 million as Ora Banda’s sale of 65 per cent of the project’s non-gold mineral rights to Davyston, coupled with a Ora Banda is transitioning from open pit mining to solely mining underground. The company believes the results demonstrate a mining scenario may be feasible and will advance its mining study to determine Sand King’s potential to become its second underground mine.

Xanadu Mines (ASX: XAM) continues to deliver positive metallurgical testwork for its Kharmagtai copper-gold Management says tests using the “Eriez HydroFloat” system showed the company could recover valuable minerals were attained on coarser grind options ranging from 150 microns to 450 microns on Kharmagtai sulphide mineralisation project hosts a massive mineral resource of 1.3 billion tonnes at 0.3 per cent copper and 0.2g/t gold Just last month, leaching tests on the shallower oxidised portion of the project’s mineral resource delivered

Great Southern Mining has kicked off its latest drilling program at the company’s Duketon gold project resource in the north of Golden Boulder where previous drilling defined 650m of semi-contiguous gold mineralisation Great Southern is also looking to extend the known mineralisation to the south along a prominent north-south 44m, 3m at 4.8g/t from 18m and 12m going 1.3g/t from 44m, highlight the potential for further shallow mineralisation Potential for up to a further $5 million depends upon discovery of economic mineralisation and gold pricing

Thick pegmatites, including one stretching more than 120m, have boosted St George Mining’s lithium search It says it has the potential to host lithium mineralisation where the pegmatites are intruded into more which has taken up the remaining share in a non-contributing interest until there is a decision to mine These types of pegmatites are what is required for large mineral deposits and we will continue to test St George Mining executive chairman John Prineas Management says its project confidence is growing after

St George Mining (ASX: SGQ) has bolstered development plans for its high-grade Araxá niobium-rare earths project in the rapidy advancing mineral jurisdiction of Minais Gerais in Brazil. It currently sources niobium exclusively from Canada’s Niobec mine, the world’s third-largest niobium complex, a world-class rare earths host rock operated by neighbour Companhia Brasileira de Metalurgia e Mineracao month, with the aim of confirming historical drill results and delving deeper along known high-grade mineralisation
