Aurum Resources Limited (ASX: AUE) (Aurum) is pleased to report high-grade gold intercepts from step-back diamond hole at BD Target 1 as part of ongoing diamond drilling at its Boundiali Gold Project in Côte d'Ivoire, West Africa.
Highlights
- Step-back diamond drilling (355.5m) at BD Target 1 on the Boundiali BD tenement returns shallow, wide high-grade gold hits1 including:
- 12.22m @ 14.56 g/t Au from 275m inc. 1m @ 163.42 g/t Au (DSDD0051)
- Intercept is ~60m down dip from 4m @ 22.35 g/t Au from 226m (DSDD0004)2 and ~230m below surface and gold mineralisation remains open
- BD Target 1 is a 1.3km by 1km wide gold prospect within a 13km by 3km gold mineralised corridor
- More assay results from BD Targets 1, 2 and 3 are expected over the coming weeks
- Drill program is ongoing with more than 30,000m of diamond drilling planned for this year
- Aurum has three rigs on site and will increase to four diamond rigs drilling ~6,000m per month
- Aurum is targeting an initial Mineral Resource Estimate for Boundiali in late CY2024
- Aurum has a strong cash balance of ~A$5M (unaudited) to support its aggressive drill program.
Aurum’s Managing Director Dr. Caigen Wang said: “We are very pleased to see this project best result for BD target 1 with DSDD0051 hitting 1m @ 163.42 g/t Au within an interval of 12.22m @ 14.56 g/t Au from 275m. This interval was 60m down dip from 4m @ 22.35 g/t Au (DSDD0004) and the system remains open as we systematically step out along strike and step back to test down dip.
We will soon have four diamond drill rigs working at Boundiali as we increase our drilling rate to ~6,000m per month. We are in an incredibly target-rich environment as our geology team adds new targets to test at BD within the 13km by 3km gold corridor.
We are leveraging the work completed by previous explorers at Boundiali and thanks to our supportive shareholders are well funded. Our aggressive drilling ensures consistent news flow as we build on the encouraging results to date from known targets on the BD and BM tenements and look forward to testing new targets whilst we aim to deliver inaugural JORC resources for Boundiali by late 2024.”

Key Project
Boundali Gold Project
The Boundiali gold project in Cote d’Ivoire is located within the Boundiali Greenstone Belt, which hosts Resolute’s Syama gold operation (11.5 Moz) and the Tabakoroni deposit (1 Moz) in Mali. Neighbouring assets also include Barrick’s Tongon mine (5 Moz) and Montage Gold’s Kone project (4.5 Moz).
The Boundiali project area covers the underexplored southern extension of the Boundiali belt, where a highly deformed synclinal greenstone horizon traverses finer-grained basin sediments, and to the west, Tarkwaian clastic rocks lie in contact with a granitic margin. The project benefits from year-round road access and excellent infrastructure.
The first stage of drilling at Boundiali occurred from late October 2023 to end of November 2024 for both the BM and BD tenements (BM1 and BM2; BD1, BD2 and BD3 targets) and was designed to test below-gold-in-soil anomalies oriented along NE trending structures, define new gold prospects and define maiden JORC resources. With over 63,000m diamond holes drilled during this period, Maiden JORC gold resources estimate was delivered in late December 2024.
Drilling costs are estimated at US$45 per metre, as Aurum owns all of its eight drilling rigs and employs its operators, representing a significant value proposition relative to peers who use commercial drilling companies that charge upwards of $200 per meter. The company believes there is potential for multi-million ounce gold resources to be defined with hundreds thousands meters of drilling over years within the Boundiali Gold Project’s land holding areas.
The Boundiali gold project comprises four contiguous granted licenses: PR0808 (80 percent interest), PR0893 (80 percent and earning to 88 percent interest), PR414 (100 percent interest), and PR283 (earning to 70 percent interest). Historic exploration at PR0893 includes 93 AC drill holes and four RC holes. Airborne geophysical surveying, geological mapping and extensive soil sampling have also been performed at PR0893, while PR0808 has had 91 RC holes drilled for 6,229 metres along with geochemical analysis and modeling. Detailed geochemical sampling and drilling at PR414 revealed three strong gold anomalies and returned impressive high-grade results.
Following the renewal of its Boundali South (BST) exploration licence in September 2024, drilling at the Nyangboue deposit is planned for H1 2025 and H2 2025. Previous exploration at BST has returned impressive results, including 20 m at 10.45 g/t gold from 38 meters, and 30 m at 8.30 g/t gold from 39 m.
In May 2024, Aurum entered a strategic partnership agreement to earn up to a 70 percent interest in exploration tenement PR283, to be renamed Boundiali North (BN). Aurum, through subsidiary Plusor Global Pty Ltd, has partnered with Ivorian company Geb & Nut Resources Sarl and related party (GNRR) to explore and develop the Boundiali North (BN) tenement which covers 208.87sq km immediately north of Aurum’s BD tenement. Further to this agreement,
Aurum announced it has earned 80 percent project interest after completing more than 20,000 m of diamond core drilling.
Boundiali Project JORC Mineral Resource Estimate
Aurum has announced a maiden independent JORC mineral resource estimate of 1.59 Moz gold for its 1,037 sq. km. The Boundiali Gold Project comprises the BST, BDT1 & BDT2, BMT1 and BMT3 deposits. Drilling is ongoing on these deposits, and Aurum has identified other prospects at Boundiali which have yet to be drilled. Since October 2023, the company has completed an extensive 63,927-metre diamond drilling program. This aggressive exploration campaign has rapidly defined a significant gold resource of 50.9 Mt @ 1.0 g/t gold for 1.6 million ounces.
A 100,000 m of drilling is planned and being carried out at Boundiali using eight self-owned diamond rigs to drive resource growth with two JORC resources updates in 2025.
In 2025, Aurum plans to launch a mining exploitation licence application and complete a PFS and environment study for the Boundiali Gold Project.

Finlay Minerals
Investor Insight
With a strategic foothold in British Columbia’s most prospective mining belts, Finlay Minerals is an emerging copper-gold-silver exploration company with a compelling investment story, backed by a 30-year technical legacy and disciplined approach to discovery.
Overview
Finlay Minerals (TSXV:FYL,OTCQB:FYMNF) is a Vancouver-based mineral exploration company focused on advancing copper, gold and silver projects in British Columbia’s premier mining districts, particularly within the richly mineralized and productive Stikine Terrane. The company’s strategic objective is to discover and develop high-quality porphyry and epithermal deposits through a combination of geological expertise, partner-funded programs, and disciplined capital deployment.
Founders John J. Barakso and Robert Brown at the PIL Property
Finlay’s value proposition is anchored in its 2025 agreements with Freeport-McMoRan – one of the world’s largest copper producers – which is actively funding the advancement of the PIL and ATTY projects in the Toodoggone District. These earn-in agreements provide a non-dilutive path to unlock value from Finlay’s flagship assets, while enabling the company to focus internal resources on regional-scale exploration at its SAY, JJB and Silver Hope properties.
The company benefits from a seasoned technical team with regional expertise and a deep understanding of the geologic architecture of British Columbia. New exploration initiatives, such as those along the Bear Lake Corridor, position Finlay for new discovery potential across multiple fronts. With metal prices trending higher and a favorable operating environment in Canada, Finlay Minerals offers exposure to copper and gold discoveries in one of the safest and most geologically endowed jurisdictions globally.
Company Highlights
- Strategic Alliance with Freeport-McMoRan: Freeport has committed up to $35 million in exploration spending and $4.1 million in cash payments for an 80 percent interest in Finlay’s PIL and ATTY projects, validating their district-scale potential.
- Dominant Land Position in the Toodoggone District: PIL and ATTY provide direct exposure to one of BC’s most active copper-gold corridors, adjacent to Centerra’s Kemess complex and Amarc-Freeport’s AuRORA discovery.
- Unlocking the Bear Lake Corridor: The SAY and JJB properties offer large-scale exploration potential in an underexplored region analogous to major discoveries like American Eagle’s NAK and Amarc’s DUKE.
- Disciplined Exploration Focus: More than 70 percent of all capital raised has gone directly into the ground, demonstrating Finlay’s capital-efficient approach and scientific rigor.
- Proven Leadership Legacy: Founded by renowned geochemist John J. Barakso and led by a technically adept team with deep experience in BC exploration.
Key Projects
PIL
The 100 percent owned PIL property spans 13,374 hectares in the prolific Toodoggone mining district in British Columbia and was staked over 30 years ago by Finlay’s founders. It hosts multiple copper-gold-molybdenum porphyry and gold-silver epithermal targets within the 70 km regional porphyry corridor trend, situated near major deposits including Centerra Gold’s Kemess complex and the Amarc-Freeport AuRORA discovery. Notable targets on the property include PIL South (2.5 x 2.0 km soil geochemical anomaly with supported IP anomaly), Copper Ridge (soil anomaly 1.9 x 1.3 km) and Spruce (rock samples up to 18.4 percent copper). Historical drilling includes 72 holes totaling over 17,000 metres, with new targets emerging from recent geophysical and geochemical work. Past drilling includes intersections like 162.0 m of 0.1 percent copper, 0.05 grams per ton gold and 7.1 g/t silver at PIL South, highlighting the potential for bulk tonnage copper-gold systems.
Finlay has announced an earn-in agreement with Freeport-McMoRan, which may invest up to $25 million in exploration expenditures to earn 80 percent interest over six years, signaling high confidence in the PIL project's tier-1 potential. A broad and systematic exploration plan is in place for the 2025 season, involving surface sampling with updated analysis techniques, mapping and detailed geophysical surveys.
ATTY
Covering 3,875 hectares, the 100 percent owned ATTY property, also in the Toodoggone District, lies directly north of the Kemess East and Underground deposits. It shares similar stratigraphy and alteration patterns and is interpreted to host an extension of the Kemess North trend. The property hosts eight epithermal and porphyry targets, including two main targets, the KEM and Wrich targets, which have been delineated through IP surveys and/or geochemistry, pointing toward porphyry centers. Thirteen holes totaling 3,971 meters have been drilled to date, but the main IP chargeability zone remains untested at depth. With similarities to the upper Kemess East deposit and structural alignment with the adjacent Joy project (Amarc/Freeport), ATTY is considered a high-priority drill target and is fully permitted for 2025. Finlay has announced an earn-in agreement with Freeport-McMoRan, which may invest up to $10 million in exploration expenditures to earn 80 percent interest over six years, signaling high confidence in the ATTY project's tier-1 potential.
SAY
The SAY property is a 100 percent owned, early-stage exploration project covering 26,202 hectares within the underexplored Bear Lake Corridor of the Stikine Terrane. Located 140 km north of Smithers, BC, it is accessible by helicopter with logging roads nearby. The project hosts structurally controlled high-grade copper and silver mineralization at the SPUR Target, which includes the AG Zone, East Breccia and Western Shear. Recent surface sampling returned exceptional grades such as 14.5 percent copper and 850 g/t silver from East Breccia, and 11.2 percent copper and 819 g/t silver from the AG Zone. Copper and silver exposures at the AG Zone have been observed over a 200 by 200 metre area. The mineralization occurs along a 4.3 km ridgeline with strong magnetic signatures, spatially related to local faults, intrusive dykes and breccias. The SHEL target, associated with molybdenum, adds porphyry-style upside. A property-wide mag survey and extensive surface sampling program is planned in 2025 to systematically evaluate the copper potential of the SAY property.
JJB
The fully owned JJB property spans 15,453 hectares and lies 4 km north of SAY within the same Bear Lake Corridor. Named after founder John J. Barakso, this grassroots property is in the early stages of exploration but offers significant blue-sky potential. The property shares the same tectonic setting as NAK and DUKE and will benefit from the technical momentum established at SAY. Logging roads and an airstrip are within 10 km of the JJB claims, providing nearby staging areas for this heli-access project. Systematic geological mapping and sampling, alongside airborne mag surveys, are planned to generate drill targets in the near term.
Silver Hope
The Silver Hope property covers 21,322 hectares surrounding the historic Equity Silver mine in the Skeena Arch. This 100 percent owned asset hosts the Main Trend, a >2 km copper-silver-gold mineralized system extending from the Newmont owned, past-producing, Equity Silver mine. Historical drilling (over 41,000 m) has intersected broad mineralized zones, including 282 m @ 0.23 percent copper, 6.4 g/t silver and 0.01 g/t gold. Other notable intercepts include 133 m @ 0.30 percent copper and 7.6 g/t silver. The West Cu-Mo Porphyry target adds a large-scale copper-molybdenum opportunity to the mix, and the project is fully permitted for drilling.

Blackrock Silver Drills Multiple +1 kg/t AgEq Intercepts and Establishes Grade Continuity over 350 Metres in Final M&I Conversion Assays at Tonopah West
Blackrock Silver Corp. (TSXV: BRC) (OTCQX: BKRRF) (FSE: AHZ0) ("Blackrock" or the "Company") announces the final set of high-grade silver and gold drill intercepts from its recently completed M&I Conversion Program (as defined herein) at its 100% owned Tonopah West project ("Tonopah West") located in Nye and Esmeralda Counties, Nevada, United States.
HIGHLIGHTS:
- TXC25-139 cut 9.05 metres grading 367 grams per tonne (g/t) silver equivalent (AgEq) (182.8 g/t silver (Ag) & 2.04 g/t gold (Au)) from 187.5 metres, including 0.82 metres grading 2,886 g/t AgEq (1,411 g/t Ag & 16.13 g/t Au), Ag/Au ratio 90:1;
- TXC25-150 drilled 2.84 metres grading 671.5 AgEq (367 g/t Ag & 3.41 g/t Au) from 162.3 metres, including 0.76 metres grading 1,554 g/t AgEq ( 819 g/t Ag & 8.14 g/t Au);
- TXC25-146 intercepted 1.16 metres of 1,111 g/t AgEq (615 g/t Ag & 5.50 g/t Au) from 189.5 metres;
- Results from the entirety of the M&I Conversion Program have validated the geologic model, successfully establishing continuity of the high-grade shoots bearing robust geometry over 350 metres. The shoots remain open to the Northwest and downdip;
- Significant new zones of near-surface mineralization were encountered during the M&I Conversion Program at higher-than-average grades updip from the existing resource shell;
- Modelling of the M&I Conversion Program drillholes is now underway with an updated mineral resource estimate on Tonopah West on track for Q3, 2025; and
- Assay results for 7 drillholes from the Company's Northwest step out resource expansion area are currently pending. (see February 24, 2025 news release)\
The Company has completed its in-fill drilling program (the "M&I Conversion Program") at Tonopah West which commenced in mid July 2024 and consisted of 62 drillholes totalling 12,580 metres (41,271 feet) within the shallow southern portion of the Bermuda-Merten vein group ("DPB") resource area (the "M&I Conversion Area"). The objective of the M&I Conversion Program is to convert between 1.0 and 1.5-million tonnes of material from inferred mineral resources to measured and indicated mineral resources. The M&I Conversion Area represents the initial years of anticipated production at Tonopah West based on the mine plan laid out in the Company's Preliminary Economic Assessment on Tonopah West (see September 4, 2024 news release).
Andrew Pollard, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated: "With all assays now received from our M&I Conversion Program, we've validated our geologic model at Tonopah West and confirmed continuous high-grade mineralization over a 350-metre zone. Results from this program featured standout grades that reinforce the Tonopah West project's position as one of the top undeveloped silver assets in the sector. In addition to strengthening confidence in known zones through tighter drill spacing, the program also outlined new near-surface zones of ultra-high-grade gold and silver mineralization, representing meaningful new tonnage potential. These results will be incorporated into an updated mineral resource estimate on Tonopah West anticipated to be completed Q3 2025, aimed at upgrading significant tonnage to the measured and indicated categories to help de-risk the early years of anticipated production."

The geometry of the high-grade silver and gold is sizable with high-grade shoots plunging to the northwest and showing continuity over 350 metres within the M&I Conversion Area. These shoots remain open to the northwest and open down plunge. Multiple high-grade intercepts have been returned pursuant to the M&I Conversion Program. TXC25-139 returned over 9-metres grading 183 g/t silver and 2.04 g/t gold for 367 g/t AgEq. This intercept is immediately adjacent to mineralization found in TXC25-138 (see May 8, 2025 news release) where a composite zone of 11.46 metres of 514 g/t AgEq (290 g/t Ag & 2.48 g/t Au) was encountered. The thickness of this mineralized vein is approaching those seen in the historic mining at the Victor and Ohio mines at Tonopah West where Victor was 24 metres thick and Ohio was 15 metres thick.
The completion of the M&I Conversion Program now allows for modelling of the vein shoots and high-grade gold and silver for an updated mineral resource estimate which is anticipated to be completed this fall. Management of the Company believes the updated mineral resource estimate will show excellent continuity between the high-grade zones and an increase in confidence of the DPB portion of the mineral resource. This information will assist in the design and implementation of an exploration decline, underground test mining and extraction of a bulk sample for metallurgical processing at Tonopah West.
Table 2 shows all of the intercepts above 150 g/t AgEq encountered pursuant to the M&I Conversion Program. Approximately 65% of the drilling returned values above 150 g/t AgEq with the remaining drillholes returning mineralization, albeit below the cutoff. No drillhole in the campaign was completely barren of gold or silver.

Quality Assurance/ Quality Control
All sampling is conducted under the supervision of the Company's project geologists, and a strict chain of custody from the project to the sample preparation facility is implemented and monitored. The RC and core samples are hauled from the project site to a secure and fenced facility in Tonopah, Nevada, where they are loaded on to American Assay Laboratory's (AAL) flat-bed truck and delivered to AAL's facility in Sparks, Nevada. A sample submittal sheet is delivered to AAL personnel who organize and process the sample intervals pursuant to the Company's instructions.
The RC samples are lined out at the lab and logged in to AAL's system. The core samples are cut using core saws and personnel at AAL's facility in Sparks, Nevada according to the Company's instructions delivered with each core hole.
All samples are dried, crushed to 85% passing 10 mesh (2mm) and a 250-gram sub-sample split is collected and pulverized to 200 mesh (74 micron) in a ring and puck pulverizer. Then the pulverized material is digested and analyzed for gold using fire assay fusion and an Induced Coupled Plasma (ICP) finish on a 30-gram assay split (FA-PB30-ICP). Silver is determined using five-acid digestion and ICP analysis (ICP-5AM48). Over limits for gold and silver are determined using a gravimetric finish (GRAVAU30 and GRAVAG30). Data verification of the assay and analytical results are completed to ensure accurate and verifiable results. Blackrock personnel insert a blind prep blank, lab blank or a certified reference material approximately every 15th to 20th sample.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Information
This news release contains "forward-looking statements" and "forward-looking information" (collectively, "forward-looking statements") within the meaning of Canadian and United States securities legislation, including the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this news release relate to, among other things: the Company's strategic plans; the anticipated objectives and results from the Company's drill programs at Tonopah West; the incorporation of the results from the M&I Conversion Program in an updated mineral resource estimate on Tonopah West and the anticipated timing of release thereof; the Company's de-risking initiatives at Tonopah West; estimates of mineral resource quantities and qualities; estimates of mineralization from drilling; geological information projected from sampling results; and the potential quantities and grades of the target zones.
These forward-looking statements reflect the Company's current views with respect to future events and are necessarily based upon a number of assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company, are inherently subject to significant operational, business, economic and regulatory uncertainties and contingencies. These assumptions include, among other things: conditions in general economic and financial markets; accuracy of assay results; geological interpretations from drilling results, timing and amount of capital expenditures; performance of available laboratory and other related services; future operating costs; the historical basis for current estimates of potential quantities and grades of target zones; the availability of skilled labour and no labour related disruptions at any of the Company's operations; no unplanned delays or interruptions in scheduled activities; all necessary permits, licenses and regulatory approvals for operations are received in a timely manner; the ability to secure and maintain title and ownership to properties and the surface rights necessary for operations; and the Company's ability to comply with environmental, health and safety laws. The foregoing list of assumptions is not exhaustive.
The Company cautions the reader that forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements contained in this news release and the Company has made assumptions and estimates based on or related to many of these factors. Such factors include, without limitation: the timing and content of work programs; results of exploration activities and development of mineral properties; the interpretation and uncertainties of drilling results and other geological data; receipt, maintenance and security of permits and mineral property titles; environmental and other regulatory risks; project costs overruns or unanticipated costs and expenses; availability of funds; failure to delineate potential quantities and grades of the target zones based on historical data; general market and industry conditions; and those factors identified under the caption "Risks Factors" in the Company's most recent Annual Information Form.
Forward-looking statements are based on the expectations and opinions of the Company's management on the date the statements are made. The assumptions used in the preparation of such statements, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation, may prove to be imprecise and, as such, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statements were made.
