Metzke's Find resource updated to just under 25,000 oz at 5.2 g/t Au, with new mining lease application submitted and ongoing commercial discussions.
Elara and Mangaroon saw extensive drilling and sampling, with Black Oak at Elara prioritized for infill and discovery drilling by year-end.
Mangaroon target definition advanced, focusing on Bordah, Minga Bar, and High Range, with drilling likely to commence early next year.
Exploration strategy and value creation
Discovery at Elara and Mangaroon is seen as the greatest potential value driver over the next 12-24 months.
Black Oak at Elara is the current focus, with infill aircore drilling underway and RC drilling planned for late 2024.
