ESGold has completed approximately 2,030 metres of its 5,000-metre Montauban drilling program. Visual observations have identified sulphide-bearing intervals (pyrite, pyrrhotite, and galena), but assay results for the 400 submitted samples are still pending.
Collective Mining announced high-grade tungsten and gold discoveries at its Guayabales Project in Caldas, Colombia, including a new tungsten-gold zone in schist outside the Apollo breccia body. Drill hole APC150-D4 intersected 8.15 meters grading 14.82 g/t AuEq (0.40% WO3, 8.47 g/t Au, 4 g/t Ag), representing a new exploration target. Additionally, multiple high-grade gold-silver-copper veins were discovered, with one intercept of 1.15 meters grading 57.98 g/t AuEq, and mineralization in the Ramp Zone was extended westward.
OceanaGold announced exceptional high-grade gold drill results from its Wharekirauponga project in New Zealand, with several intercepts exceeding 90 g/t Au. These results confirm the continuity and up-dip extension of the high-grade EG Vein zone, supporting the potential upgrade of Inferred Mineral Resources to Indicated and an expected increase in Mineral Reserves. The company also provided an update on the Waihi North Project development and an upcoming technical report planned for January 2027.
KO Gold reports positive assay results from its 2026 drilling program at the Smylers Gold Exploration Permit in New Zealand, confirming the continuity of gold mineralization in the Hyde-Macraes Shear Zone. Highlights include 0.82 g/t Au over 8.0 metres (including 4.09 g/t Au over 0.6 metres) in diamond drill hole SD0046. The program, which included 23 RC and 2 diamond drill holes, provides a structural framework for future resource definition, despite some holes being abandoned due to ground conditions and true widths remaining unknown.
Kalo Gold has identified a 4.3 km gold-bearing resistivity corridor at the Wainikoro target of its Vatu Aurum Project in Fiji. While the release highlights high-grade gold and silver surface results, many of these intercepts are re-releases of previously reported data.
Scottie Resources Corp. has announced a brokered private placement of up to C$10 million and an amended non-brokered private placement of C$17 million, totaling up to C$27 million in gross proceeds. The funds are intended for working capital and technical studies/permitting at the Scottie Gold Mine Project.
Kalo Gold has identified a 4.3 km gold-bearing resistivity corridor at the Wainikoro target in Fiji. While the corridor remains open along strike, the high-grade gold results reported are largely restatements of previously disclosed surface samples.
Waraba Gold has confirmed in-situ gold mineralization at its Fetiko target within the Tengrela Gold Project in Côte d'Ivoire. Continuous channel sampling from trench TGTR-FT-001-EX returned 6.60 metres at 1.16 g/t Au, while an auger geochemical program defined a 1.9-kilometre gold-in-saprolite anomaly. The company plans infill auger drilling and a first-pass reverse circulation drill program to further test the target, with all QA/QC results indicating no material issues.
Grafton Resources has secured an exclusive option to acquire 100% of the Poseidon Gold-Silver-Copper and Jabali Gold Projects in Chile from Newmont. The Poseidon project, contiguous with Grafton's existing Alicahue project, shows historical polymetallic drill intercepts including 5.4m at 1.4 g/t Au, 20 g/t Ag, 0.56% Cu, 0.14% Pb, and 0.66% Zn. The Jabali project is an undrilled, large-scale high-sulfidation gold target. The acquisition involves cash and share considerations, plus milestone payments and NSR royalties, significantly expanding Grafton's exploration portfolio in Chile.
OceanaGold reports exceptional high-grade gold drill results from its Wharekirauponga project in New Zealand, including intercepts of 6.3m at 97.2 g/t Au and 8.5m at 41.5 g/t Au. These results demonstrate continuity and up-dip extension of the high-grade EG Vein zone, supporting future resource upgrades and reserve increases. The company is also progressing with the Waihi North Project, including a potential processing plant expansion to 1.2 Mtpa to enable concurrent mining of the Martha Underground and Wharekirauponga Underground mines.
