High Resolution Ground Magnetics Commences at 100% - Owned Kiabye Gold Project, Western Australia

Red Mountain Mining Limited (“RMX” or the “Company”) is pleased to advise that today it will commence conducting a high-resolution ground magnetics and targeted pXRF assay program at the Company’s 100%-owned Kiabye Gold Project in Western Australia. The Company will aim to define potential gold bearing structures for conventional wet geochemical sampling.


HIGHLIGHTS

  • Survey has launched today in the northern Kiabye area – an area which has previously reported anomalous gold-in-soil
  • Kiabye Gold Project covers 23km2 of strike and remains underexplored – providing considerable upside potential for RMX
  • The survey will target structures amenable to gold bearing fluids with target areas to be followed up with detailed pXRF assaying
  • The program will take approximately 12 days, covering to 10km2 – results of the magnetic survey are anticipated in mid to late March
  • Defined anomalous areas will be targeted for wet chemistry sampling with lab results expected in late March.

The program is focused on the most northern section of the Kiabye licence (E59/2893), which is one of the four exploration licenses that make up the project area. This straddles the Kiabye Greenstone Belt in the Yilgarn‘s Murchison Domain, southeast of Mount Magnet. The survey will total 10km2 and will be split into three areas of focus, based on priority (see Figure 1).

The program is expected to take 12 days, with coverage to depend on the rate of surveying, across both magnetics and pXRF assay follow-up. This will assist the Company in defining the three target areas, based on sample results (see Figure 2). A summary of each area is as follows:

  • Area 1 covers a number of anomalous gold in soil samples, hosts two NNE (North- North-East) striking faults and is located in an area of unverified alluvial and insitu gold.
  • Area 2 contains numerous gold in soil samples with several samples of >20ppb to 47ppb Au. The block is also cut by two faults striking NNE and NS. The area also contains RMX rock sample KPR020 which assayed at 96ppbAu and 2.6ppm Ag.
  • Area 3 contains two areas with samples of >20ppb Au. The west is cut by a major NNW to NS faults marking the boundary between the Kiabye Greenstone Belt and Granites to the west. The second fault strikes NNE and is believed to extend north into Area 2.

Significance of Gold-in soils

In consideration of the highly diluting soil profile in the area, any soil sample with ≥20ppB Au is considered anomalous therefore Area 2 and 3 contain several areas with anomalous gold-in-soils.

Ground Magnetic Survey

The Red Mountain Mining team and contractors will conduct the geophysical survey initially at 100m east - west line spacing and 20m reading intervals. The data will be processed and interpreted in the field and where structures of interest are identifying these areas will be infilled to 50m line spacing. The main targets for gold mineralisation include shear zones and faults interpreted in the data. The surveys will collect data from 110 to 213-line kilometers depending on the number of infill lines conducted.

Project background:

The Kiabye gold project is located in WA and covers a strike length of 23km² of the greenstone belt (Figure 3) with less than half covered by exploration samples from historical explorers and only around 7% having been covered by prior holders.

Welcome to the Investing News Network's weekly look at the best-performing Canadian mining stocks on the TSX, TSXV and CSE, starting with a round-up of Canadian and US news impacting the resource sector.

Statistics Canada released April’s gross domestic product (GDP) numbers on Friday (June 27). The data showed a slowing in the Canadian economy with a 0.1 percent monthly decline after it increased 0.2 percent in March as businesses attempted to get ahead of US tariff deadlines.

In April, the shift in US trade policy led to significant declines in the manufacturing sector, which saw its largest drop in four years at 1.9 percent. Durable goods manufacturing declined for the first time in four months, dropping 2.2 percent d. The most heavily impacted sub-sectors were transportation equipment and the auto sector, which fell 21.6 percent and 5.2 percent, respectively.

Tudor to Acquire American Creek in Latest Gold M&A Deal

Tudor Gold (TSXV:TUD,OTC Pink:TDRRF) has signed a definitive agreement to acquire American Creek Resources (TSXV:AMK,OTCQB:ACKRF) in an all-share transaction, marking a consolidation in BC's Golden Triangle.

Under the deal, dated Wednesday (June 25), each American Creek shareholder will receive 0.238 shares of Tudor for each share held, effectively giving Tudor an 80 percent ownership stake in the Treaty Creek project — one of Canada’s largest undeveloped gold-copper porphyry systems. American Creek previously held a fully carried 20 percent interest.

"Our acquisition of American Creek increases our interest to 80 percent in the Treaty Creek Project, which hosts one of the largest gold discoveries in Canada with excellent potential for expansion and additional gold-copper discoveries, at a reasonable per ounce of gold equivalent cost," said Joe Ovsenek, Tudor Gold president and CEO, in a press release.

Top 7 ASX Gold ETFs in 2025

The price of gold reached record highs in 2025, driven by global economic uncertainty stemming from shifting US trade policy and escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.

For many investors, gold is a tool for diversification. The precious metal is known for its ability to act as a safe haven and hence operates as a protective option when building a balanced portfolio.

Gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) give investors a relatively easy way to get exposure to physical gold without having to worry about the extra hassle of buying and storing the metal — not to mention insuring it. Gold ETFs can also track a basket of gold-focused stocks, allowing investors to spread risk instead of betting on individual companies.
