PC Gold has identified a new high-grade North Link zone immediately north of the existing mineral resource estimate at its Spring Hill gold project in the Northern Territory, based on recent reverse-circulation drilling targeting mineralisation extensions. The North Link structure is interpreted to connect with known lodes within the current MRE footprint, potentially extending strike continuity and adding shallow, open-pittable ounces. For mine planners and geotechs, the result signals a need to revisit pit shell optimisation, geotechnical domains and slope design north of the present resource limits.

Horizon Gold has reported its strongest intercept yet at the Snook prospect within the Gum Creek project in Western Australia, with reverse-circulation drilling returning 44m at 5.08g/t gold from 145m, including 11m at 16.30g/t from 174m. The thick, high-grade zone at moderate depth points to a larger open pit shell and supports evaluation of underground mining scenarios beneath any eventual pit floor. For mine planners and geotechs, the result justifies updated pit optimisations, geotechnical domain modelling and closer-spaced drilling to refine continuity and rock mass conditions.

Larvotto Resources has reported high-grade gold–antimony–tungsten intercepts from four lodes at the Metz Mining Centre within its Hillgrove project in New South Wales, including a newly identified lode named Echidna. Key results include 20.5m at 9.4g/t gold equivalent (AuEq) from 342.5m at Blacklode, with a higher-grade core of 6.2m at 27.2g/t AuEq from the same depth. The grades and depths point to underground mining potential and support further resource definition drilling targeting multi-commodity sulphide mineralisation.
