Spartan Metals has received BLM approval for seven additional drill sites at its Tungstonia Claims in Nevada, part of the Eagle Tungsten-Silver-Rubidium Project. The company is currently executing a 3,000m core drilling program, with approximately 550m already completed.
Great Western Mining Corporation plc has completed its reverse circulation drilling campaign at the Defender Tungsten Project in Nevada, USA. The program, comprising 23 holes totaling 2,590 meters, visually confirmed multiple wide intervals of scheelite-bearing skarn mineralization. Samples have been sent to an accredited laboratory for assay, with results expected in Q4 2026, which will be used to inform a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate.
Great Western Mining Corporation has completed its 23-hole, 2,590-meter reverse circulation drilling campaign at the Defender Tungsten Project in Nevada. Visual inspection of drill cuttings confirmed multiple wide intercepts of scheelite-bearing skarn, validating the geological model. Samples have been sent to an accredited laboratory for assay, with results expected in Q4 2026, which will inform a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate. The company highlighted prior metallurgical testwork confirming the project's amenability to standard processing.
Blue Moon Metals reported encouraging re-assay results from its Springer Tungsten project in Nevada, including a 7m interval at 1.28% WO₃. The company also secured BLM approval to conduct new exploration drilling on 13 pads on public land.
Western Star Resources has completed a 2026 mapping and sampling program at the Eagle Point Tungsten Project in New Mexico, identifying scheelite-bearing skarn. The company plans a follow-up 17-hole drill program to test the system's geometry and continuity, with assay results from the recent sampling currently pending.
Western Star Resources has completed a 2026 geological mapping and sampling program at the Eagle Point Tungsten Project in New Mexico, identifying scheelite-bearing skarn. The company has now outlined a planned 17-hole, 6,000-foot drill program designed to test the continuity and geometry of the skarn to support a future maiden Mineral Resource Estimate.
Blue Moon Metals announced initial results from a re-assay campaign of historical drill core at its Springer Tungsten Project in Nevada, including a high-grade intercept of 7.00 m at 1.28% WO₃. The company also received approval from the Bureau of Land Management for new exploration drilling on public land and is advancing other exploration initiatives, such as stockpile sampling with pending assay results. The re-assay program aims to validate historical data and enhance the geological model, with comprehensive QA/QC protocols in place.
Tungsten Mining (TGN) has secured $50 million in firm commitments via a share placement to fund the development of its Watershed tungsten project in Queensland. The company is advancing towards a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) due in October, supported by strong metallurgical results and a surging tungsten market.
Guardian Metal Resources PLC announced positive drilling results from its Tempiute Tungsten Project in Nevada, including a significant intersection of 92.0m at 0.34% WO3. These results from Phase II resource drilling, combined with regional exploration success, have prompted the company to accelerate underground rehabilitation to facilitate further drilling and advance towards a Mineral Resource estimate. The project is focused on re-establishing a secure U.S. tungsten supply chain.
