- EX_BRESPO_03 discovery hole assays include
- 713m at 2.52g/t AuEq (1.31g/t Au, 1.16% Cu) from 1,172m downhole including
- 398m at 3.00g/t AuEq (1.48g/t Au, 1.45% Cu) from 1,487 downhole (hole ongoing)
- 713m at 2.52g/t AuEq (1.31g/t Au, 1.16% Cu) from 1,172m downhole including
- Other assay results include
- EX_BRES_555_02: 95 metres grading 0.93 g/t AuEq, comprising of 0.43 g/t Au and 0.48% Cu from 1,250 metres downhole.
- EX_BRES_555_02A: 37 metres grading 1.19 g/t AuEq, comprising of 0.53 g/t Au and 0.63% Cu from 1,357 metres downhole (hole ongoing).
- The BSP target is located ~1km from existing Mineral Reserves and the Chelopech mine concession.
- A large phyllic alteration envelope exceeding 1,000×1,500m indicated a substantial hydrothermal system with a potential to further grow the BSP target.
- Given the significance of the discovery the Company mobilised fiver drilling rigs targeting up to 15,000m through the end of 2026.
- The discovery marks fourth exploration success in the Western Tethyan Belt since 2023 following discoveries of Coka Rakita, Dumitru Potok and the Wedge Zone.
Guardian Metal Resources (GMET LN) 252.5p, Mkt Cap £511m – Additional zone of tungsten mineralisation identified at Pilot Mountain, Nevada
- Guardian Metal Resources reports that condemnation drilling, intended to ensure that mine infrastructure development as part of the continuing pre-feasibility study at its Pilot Mountain tungsten project in Nevada does not unintentionally sterilise mineralisation, has identified a previously unknown zone of tungsten skarn mineralisation.
- The new ‘Tremor Zone’ was initially intersected in drillhole PMR26-077and “intersected five distinct zones of tungsten-rich skarn mineralisation” including:
- A 3.08m intersection at an average grade of 0.24% tungsten trioxide from 83.83m depth; and
- A 13.68m wide interval at an average grade of 0.31% from 102.11m depth; and
- 4.56m at an average grade of 0.16% from 118.87m; and
- 1.52m at an average grade of 0.24% from 143.26m; and
- 4.56m grading 0.24% from 152.4m depth
- Additional holes, PMR-078, 079, 088, 096 and 097 “also intersected visually identified tungsten-bearing skarn over approximate widths of 12m, 28m, 66m, 14m and 38m respectively”.
- The Tremor Zone which “is obscured by alluvial cover and therefore does not directly outcrop at surface … has been delineated over approximately 400 metres of strike length” so far but “remains open in multiple directions”.
- Currently, the reported mineral resource of the Desert Scheelite zone at Pilot Mountain is an ‘Indicated’ resource of ~8.7mt at an average grade of ~0.21% tungsten trioxide plus an ‘Inferred’ resource of ~1.8mt at an average grade of ~0. 17%.
- At this stage, mineralisation in the Tremor Zone “will not be incorporated into the upcoming PFS … [but Guardian Metals] … has retained flexibility within its infrastructure planning to allow for its potential inclusion in future studies, subject to further drilling and technical evaluation”.
- CEO, Oliver Friesen, described the discovery of the additional mineralisation as “a very exciting result … [which] … highlights the untapped exploration potential that we believe exists at Pilot Mountain”.
- He said that the discovery supports the company’s view that Pilot Mountain “remains largely underexplored… [and also confirmed that] …. we continue to drill and define this new zone, while also advancing testing across the Project’s other priority exploration targets, all in parallel with our ongoing PFS workstreams”.
- We consider that the condemnation drilling has served its purpose in identifying the additional resource potential of the Tremor Zone sufficiently early in the project evaluation to ensure that it remains available for possible inclusion in a future mine development plan.
Conclusion: The identification of previously unknown tungsten mineralisation beneath alluvial deposits at Pilot Mountain adds additional resource expansion potential although at this stage the new Tremor Zone will not form part of the current PFS study.
Hamak Strategy* (HAMA LN) 0.73p, Mkt Cap £3.5m – Drilling results from Akoko, Ghana
- Hamak Strategy, which has an option to buy CAA Mining’s Akoko gold project in southwest Ghana, has released results from a further seven (405m) reverse-circulation (RC) drill holes.
- The drilling so-far has “been focussed on the Akoko North area, combining resource confirmation as well as condemnation drilling, with a total of 33 holes for 1,947 metres drilled to date”.
- The highlighted results are:
-
- A 28m wide intersection in oxide ore averaging 2.12g/t gold from a depth of 3m in hole 2026-051 and including 10m averaging 4.41g/t gold from a depth of 14m; and
- A 14m wide intersection in oxide ore averaging 1.57g/t gold from a depth of 16m in hole 2026-021 and including 3.15g/t over 3m from 19m and 2.34g/t over 4m from 26m depth.
- The company says that the “Results continue to confirm geological model of near surface, oxide gold horizons”.
- We note that a sulphide intersection of 2m grading 0.81g/t gold is reported from a depth of 62m in hole 2026-051 is also included in the detailed tabulation of results in today’s announcement and that a previous release reported a 12m wide intersection of sulphide mineralisation at an average grade of 15.44g/t from 42m in hole ANDD17-004 which “may potentially be a primary and deeper source for the oxide gold mineralisation at Akoko”.
- CEO, Karl Smithson, said that the latest results “validate the geological model of near-surface oxide gold mineralization in the northern area of the Akoko licence”.
- Seven of the planned 40 holes at Akoko North “remain to be drilled in Akoko North before the drill rig is mobilised to commence drilling in the Akoko South licence where 36 RC holes for 1,940m are planned, depending on accessibility due to increasing heavy rainfall in the region”.
Conclusion: Recent drilling data, from the Akoko gold project in Ghana is continuing to demonstrate oxide gold mineralisation at Akoko North. When the 7 final holes in the northern area are completed, drilling is expected to switch to the Akoko South area, subject to weather related access considerations.

Jubilee Metals Group (JLP LN) 2.8p, Mkt cap £90m – Roan concentrator in Zambia resumes following annual maintenance and improvements to the fine concentrate circuit
- Jubilee Metals confirms that it has resumed the ramp up of production at its Roan copper concentrator in Zambia and is “operating at full capacity targeting 30 000tpm of ROM” following completion of the plant’s annual scheduled maintenance.
- The commissioning of the “New fine copper concentrate dewatering facility … provides increased operational flexibility … [by providing the] … ability to process both newly generated fine concentrate material together with the historical stockpile” feedstock and speeding “the drying and processing of fine copper concentrate material”.
- CEO, Leon Coetzer, said that the company expects “June 2026 performance to provide a clearer indication of sustainable operating capacity and recovery efficiencies with the addition of the fines concentrate from Roan now being processed at Sable”.
- He explained that “Roan plays a key role in the Company’s integrated copper production strategy, processing third-party run-of-mine copper ore (ROM) into copper concentrates for further refining at the Sable refinery, while also producing high-grade copper sulphide concentrate for direct sale into the market”.
- Today’s announcement outlines the significance of the fine concentrate at the Roan Concentrator saying that it “accounts for approximately 25.5% of the contained copper within the total ROM feed to Roan”.
- The announcement also explains that during June Jubilee Metals will consider further throughput expansion opportunities from “the inclusion of the front-end DMS … [dense-media separation] … circuit”.
- “The Company expects to provide a further update on copper production guidance once steady-state operational performance has been demonstrated consistently across the integrated Roan and Sable processing circuits”.
Conclusion: The Roan copper concentrator is operating at full capacity following it annual maintenance shutdown. The sustainable throughput rate is expected to be established during June enabling the company to update its copper production guidance.
Koryx Copper (KRY CN) C$3.38, Mkt cap C$450m – Haib copper project process work
- Koryx Copper report progress on the optimisation of the process flow sheet for the Haib copper project in Namibia with the PFS due by the year-end.
- The work is now expected to lead to significant production and operating cost benefits.
- Management are also working upgrading the mineral resource and on the optimisation of the Haib mine plan
- The application of a new CPF ‘coarse particle flotation circuit to reject up to 25% of low-value waste rock is also a significant advance.
- The impact of the CPF is to raise the ore grade throughput through the rest of the process circuit reducing operating costs and creating further benefits.
- This early sorting of waste from the ore should enable better throughput, grade, production and could simplify the overall process flow sheet with previous with sulphide heap leach material now expected to be treated in the main plant.
- Management see this as giving “the best overall metallurgical performance”
- Power: 200MVA power supply via Namibian grid and hybrid solar photo-voltaic with battery storage.
- Water supply from Orange River combined with off-site storage dam for 20Mm³/year.
- Environmental and permitting work is progressing, with 13 specialist studies completed and environmental approval targeted for H1 2027.
