Altair Minerals Limited (ASX: ALR) (‘Altair or ‘the Company’) is pleased provide an update in relation to the activities carried out during the December 2024 quarter.
Key Developments & Exploration Progress
- Major untested conductive and phase anomaly were both identified proximal to each other within Altair’s Olympic Domain Project which is highly prospective for IOCG style mineralisation.1
- The newly uncovered conductive and phase anomaly body1 located ~5km Northwest of BHP Oak Dam Deposit (1.34Bt @ 0.66% Cu & 0.33g/t Au)2
- Ovoid conductive anomalous body shares parallels to those of Khamsin and Carrapateena deposits, with a follow up with TEM survey that can precisely identify the depth of the body for drill targeting1
- Previous drilling appears to have narrowly missed the newly identified phase anomaly with impressive results on the mineralised halo surrounding the target anomaly1, 5, 6, 7:
- HWDD08: 115m @ 0.32% CuEq from 1040m (Drilled ~2km North of main phase anomaly)
- HWD1: 61m @ 0.33% CuEq from 901m
- HWDD05: 115m @ 0.62% CuEq from 1095m (Drilled ~700m North of conductive high)
- HWDD05W1: 70m @ 0.67% CuEq from 962m
- Altair executive team continued reviewing multiple complimentary business opportunities in the resources sector globally.
OLYMPIC DOMAIN PROJECT
The Olympic Domain Project consists of three prospects (Horse Well, Pernatty C, Lake Torrens) situated in one of the largest copper provinces in the world – the Gawler Craton, which hosts mega-IOCG discoveries such as Oak Dam West, Olympic Dam, Prominent Hill and Carrapateena.

The Horse-Well Project represents a strategic opportunity for Altair, being the only project held by a junior exploration company in the vicinity (merely 2km away) of BHP’s Oak Dam West discovery with a recently defined inferred resource of 1.34Bt @ 0.66% Cu and 0.33g/t Au, including 220Mt @ 1.96% Cu and 0.68g/t Au2. The Horse-Well Project consists of EL’s 6122 and 6183 spanning a large area of 147km2 with initial drill results within geophysical anomalies having returned very positive levels of Cu-Au mineralisation associated with IOCG style alteration, with the possibility that these represent intersections peripheral to major targets.
During the quarter, Geophysical Audio Magnetotelluric (AMT) data acquired across Horse-Well in 2019 reprocessing was finalised as part of Altair’s strategy for the next step in targeted work plans. The 3D forward geophysics model has defined major conductive and phase anomalous bodies which has shown significant scale to host a potential large IOCG deposit which is analogous to the genesis of the Oak Dam Deposit.
The AMT data model includes 220 different sounding stations covering an area of 146km2, with conductivity and phase readings across a spectrum of 90 frequencies at each sounding station with additional repeat soundings for both Conductivity and Phase, leading to a model formed from analysing ~40,000 data points.

Overview
Brixton Metals (TSXV:BBB,OTCQB:BBBXF,FRA:8BX1) is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on silver, copper, gold and critical minerals across North America.
The company is currently transitioning from explorer to developer as it advances its Langis Silver Project in Ontario towards maiden mineral and tailings resource estimates. Thorn, its district-scale project in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle, remains a shared focus with three individual resource estimates expected in Q1 2027
In addition, Brixton Metals is strategically advancing non-core projects through partnerships and option agreements with companies such as Ivanhoe Electric (NYSE American:IE;TSX:IE). These partnerships provide partner-funded exploration, allowing Brixton Metals to retain upside exposure while conserving capital and strengthening its balance sheet. This approach enables the company to focus on high-impact targets while mitigating exploration risk.

Brixton Metals’ management team, led by Chairman & CEO Gary R. Thompson, brings decades of experience in resource exploration, project development, and capital markets. The team’s expertise allows the company to efficiently advance multiple projects while maintaining exposure to a diversified portfolio of metals.
In October 2026, Brixton announced the closing of its option agreement with McKnight Resources AB to acquire a 100 percent interest in the silver-focused Silvergruvan Project in Hällefors Municipality, south-central Sweden. The 1,460-hectare property sits on the western margin of the Bergslagen province. Brixton can exercise the option by issuing C$1.5 million in shares and funding C$3.3 million in exploration, with a 2 percent NSR royalty granted to McKnight upon exercise.
With global demand for copper and critical minerals set to surge over the next 25 years—driven by renewable energy, electrification, and industrial decarbonization—Brixton Metals is well positioned to capitalize on the green revolution. By combining discovery potential at its flagship project, strategic monetization of non-core assets, and disciplined exploration, Brixton Metals is advancing toward its next growth milestones while delivering significant value for investors.
Company Highlights
- High-Grade Silver Project: Langis Silver Project in the historic Cobalt Mining District of Ontario, which combines the past-producing, high-grade Langis and Hudson Bay mines.
- Pipeline Projects: Includes Thorn (BC, Canada), Hog Heaven (Montana, USA) and Atlin Goldfields (BC, Canada), providing diversified exposure to copper, gold and silver.
- Partnerships: Strategic option agreements with tier-one partners BHP and Ivanhoe Electric provide technical validation and fund exploration on non-core projects.
- Shareholder Base: Strategic investors include BHP (approx. 10.4percent) and Ivanhoe Electric.
- Management Expertise: Led by co-founder Gary Thompson, the management team has an average tenure of over 25 years, showing significant stability.
- Fully funded 2026 program: The company closed a C$9.1 million financing in August to ramp up its ongoing drill campaign at the Langis Silver Project to capitalize on record-high silver prices. Brixton also announced a non-brokered flow-through private placement of up to C$6 million in October, with proceeds directed to exploration and drilling at the Thorn and Langis projects.
- Near-term catalyst: Brixton is anticipating a maiden mineral resource estimate on the historic tailings at Langis in Q4 2026, three mineral resource estimate on the Thorn project in Q1 2027, and a maiden mineral resource estimate at Langis in Q2 2027.
Key Projects
Langis Silver Project (Ontario, Canada)

The Langis Silver Project combines the past-producing, high-grade Langis and Hudson Bay mines, which are primary silver-cobalt-nickel brownfield opportunities located in the historic Cobalt Mining District of Ontario, which has a regional production history of over 600 million ounces of silver.
Brixton Metals has actively explored these sites, with drilling at Langis yielding over 220 intervals exceeding 100 g/t silver, including high-grade intercepts such as 15,436 g/t silver and 1.98 percent cobalt between 2016 - 2022. Recent drill results included 20 m of 5,015 g/t silver, including 0.65 m of 89,125 g/t. The projects benefit from year-round road access and proximity to existing infrastructure, including a railway and the Electra Battery Metals cobalt refinery 10 km away.
Project Highlights:
- Historic Mineralization: High-grade silver and cobalt intercepts in historical drilling.
- Strategic Opportunity: Near term cash-flow by reprocessing historic tailings
- Exploration Upside: Property hosts brownfield exploration targets with known mineralization.
