Gold exploration in Western Australia continues to yield significant mineralization results and resource expansions. In the Goldfields, Cosmo Metals confirmed mineralization along the Fitzroy Shear, while Ore Resources identified the Miriam shear zone as a “fertile gold system”. Recent drilling by Golden Horse Minerals at the Hopes Hill deposit returned 16.6m at 3.4g/t gold, suggesting an emerging high-grade zone. Resource and reserve growth remains a key trend, evidenced by Ramelius Resources’ 79 per cent increase in ore reserves and Horizon Gold’s extension of its Gum Creek Gold Project. New high-grade discoveries have emerged across several regions. In the Agnew-Lawlers area, Metal Hawk identified high-grade intersections at the Numbat lode. Gateway Mining reported a 7-kilometre-long gold anomaly at its Ward prospect and a high-grade hard-rock discovery at its Cowza prospect. Recent activity shows intensified investment and drilling. Bellevue Gold has announced plans to increase exploration spending to at least $25 million for the 2027 financial year, shifting its underground drilling focus toward the Bellevue, Deacon, and Tribune lodes. Infill drilling at Deacon North has identified high-grade shoots, with results reaching 9.3m at 62.1g/t gold. At the Duketon gold project near Laverton, Great Southern Mining has reported high-grade intercepts at the Golden Boulder discovery. A 14,000m reverse circulation drilling program identified mineralization extending up to 45m down-dip, including a 10-metre interval containing 2m at 10.72g/t gold. Managing director Matthew Keane stated the area has potential for a “larger gold system capable of supporting multiple open-pit operations” due to its proximity to existing processing facilities. ~~Strategic movement is also occurring through acquisitions. Forrestania Resources has entered a binding agreement to acquire 100 per cent of Sipa Exploration from Auravelle Metals for $250,000.~~
