Resolution to commence major 45-hole drilling program at Golden Gate to define scale of Gold System Targeting Maiden Resource

ASX listed, Resolution Minerals Ltd (ASX:RML) has announced a major Phase 2 drilling program at its 100% owned Horse Heaven Gold-Antimony-Tungsten-Silver Project in Idaho, USA, aimed at defining the scale of gold mineralisation at the Golden Gate system.

The fully permitted program will comprise up to 45,000 feet (13,700 metres) of diamond drilling across up to 45 holes, representing a significant step-up from the Company’s successful 2025 campaign.

The drilling is designed to test both strike and depth extensions of mineralisation across Golden Gate North and South, and to support progression toward a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate targeted for Q1 2027, subject to successful outcomes.

 

Phase 1 drilling completed in 2025 returned gold mineralisation in all 14 holes, with results including:

• 253m @ 1.5 g/t gold
• 197.5m @ 1.26 g/t gold
• 265.2m @ 0.6 g/t gold
• 240.8m @ 0.64 g/t gold

All holes remain open at depth, highlighting the potential scale of the system.

RML’s CEO of US Operations, Craig Lindsay, commented:

“Following our impressive 2025 drill campaign, it is clear that Golden Gate hosts a large continuous gold mineralised system, with all holes intersecting mineralisation and remaining open at depth.

“The upcoming drill program is designed to define the size and shape of this system, and to advance Golden Gate toward a maiden JORC-compliant Mineral Resource Estimate.

“Importantly, mineralisation remains open in multiple directions, and we are only beginning to understand the full scale for the Golden Gate system.”

The Phase 2 program will utilise two MP1500 core diamond drill rigs, with drilling scheduled to commence in early May 2026 and continue through to mid-August.

In addition to gold, the program will target associated tungsten mineralisation, further supporting the project’s multi-commodity potential and strategic relevance amid tightening supply for both antimony and tungsten.

Drilling will focus on expanding mineralisation at both Golden Gate North and South. At Golden Gate North, step-out and infill drilling will target extensions of previously intersected broad gold zones, including 189.2m @ 1.30 g/t gold from surface, which remains open at depth.

At Golden Gate South, drilling will follow up on a new discovery where near-surface mineralisation returned 99.1m @ 0.38 g/t gold from surface to end of hole, expanding the system eastward and remaining open at depth.

The Company is also targeting a large coincident gold and tungsten soil anomaly west of recent drilling, representing a priority area for further testing.

Geological interpretation indicates that mineralisation is controlled by northeast-southwest fault structures within an intrusive-related gold system, with similarities to the nearby Stibnite Gold Mine.

Resolution expects the 2026 drilling program to deliver a steady flow of results, supporting ongoing geological interpretation and step-out drilling as the Company works to define the overall scale and continuity of the Golden Gate system.

The broader 2026 field program will include step-out drilling along strike, deeper drilling to test extensions at depth, and continued geological logging, sampling and metallurgical test work. 

The Horse Heaven Project is located in Idaho, adjacent to the multi-billion dollar Stibnite Gold Project, one of the largest undeveloped gold deposits in the United States.

Titan Minerals grows Dynasty Gold Project resource to 3.9Moz gold and 26.1Moz silver

Key Facts: Substantial resource upgrade delivered at 100%-owned Dynasty Gold Project in southern Ecuador, reinforcing its emergence as a large-scale, multi-deposit gold-silver system that stands out among a selection of global ASX peers as shown overleaf. The updated global resource now stands at 65.6Mt @ 1.85g/t Au & 12.38g/t Ag for 3.9Moz of gold and 26.1Moz of silver (CGe: 4.3Moz @ 2.05g/t AuEq in-situ at spot). This represents a 25% increase in gold and a 19% increase in silver relative to the 2023 estimate, driven primarily by drilling success and growth at the Cerro Verde deposits.Press Release18 March 2026 Resource…

High-priority drill targets identified at Star Range Silver-Antimony Project in Utah

18 March 2026 Perth, Australia Diablo Resources Limited (ASX:DBO) has identified high-priority drill targets at its 100% owned Star Range Silver-Antimony Project in Utah, following completion of an Induced Polarisation (IP) survey at the North Star Prospect. The survey has outlined multiple chargeability and conductivity anomalies that coincide with known high-grade surface mineralisation and favourable geological structures, supporting the Company’s plans for a maiden drilling program in Q2 2026. The newly defined targets align with the STAR-01 magnetic anomaly and are located proximal to an intrusive–sediment contact, a setting recognised as highly prospective for mineralisation. Surface sampling at North Star…
