Dalaroo Metals and Critical Resources launch 2026 exploration drives in Greenland and New Zealand

Dalaroo Metals has finalized plans for a four‑week field campaign at its Blue Lagoon critical‑minerals project in southern Greenland, scheduled for mid‑June to mid‑July 2026. The program will combine on‑shore geological mapping, surface sampling and auger drilling with offshore Van Veen grab sampling to target zirconium, hafnium and rare‑earth element deposits. Dalaroo will work with local specialist Xploration Services Greenland and aims to integrate on‑shore and offshore data for a future drilling phase.

Critical Resources has begun its Lammerlaw gold exploration in Central Otago, New Zealand, reporting rock‑chip assays up to 5.42 g/t Au and identifying a new 600‑metre soil arsenic anomaly. The early surface work confirms historic mineralisation at Devils Creek and highlights additional structural targets, while a novel catchment‑water sampling technique revealed further pathfinder anomalies. The company plans detailed mapping, further soil and rock‑chip sampling, and a follow‑up drill program.

Both junior miners are using low‑cost, surface‑focused techniques to define new targets and prepare for potential drilling later in 2026.
