The intercept contained~~ Victoria, containing high‑grade gold and antimony, ~~a critical mineral,~~ and ~~the company~~ announced an expansion of its drilling capacity with additional rigs and a new exploration tunnel. Later in August 2026 Southern Cross Gold announced an updated exploration target for Sunday Creek, estimating 10.4‑11.9 million tonnes grading 8.9‑12.1 g/t AuEq, potentially yielding 3.0‑4.6 million ounces AuEq. The target now spans five prospects over more than 1.5 km of strike, with nine drill rigs operating and a plan to complete an additional 135 km of drilling by the first quarter of 2027. The company said the project remains open‑ended with further depth extensions under investigation. These developments ~~show~~ illustrate a ~~broader trend~~ continued intensification of ~~intensified~~ drilling activity ~~across~~ by Australian ~~mining firms~~ miners as they pursue copper‑gold and gold‑antimony resources.
