September 26, 2024
Moho Resources Limited (ASX:MOH) (“Moho”) (“the Company”) is pleased to provide an update on its exploration and strategic review.
SUMMARY:
- Moho has completed a soil sample over the entire Weld Range project to determine the nature of the previously identified gravity and magnetic features that could represent a mafic – ultramafic intrusion prospective for copper-nickel sulphide and gold mineralization. Assays are expected in Q4 2024.
- Moho is evaluating the mineral potential at is Black Swan South project (E27/063).
- Moho is undertaking a comprehensive review of its existing projects and evaluating potential new acquisition opportunities which is expected to have the potential to enhance returns for shareholders.

High Grade Manganese Discovered at Wandanya
Australian manganese explorer and developer, Black Canyon Limited (Black Canyon or the Company) (ASX: BCA) is pleased to announce the completion of the W2 and KR2 RC drill program. The maiden drill program completed at W2 has identified potential hydrothermal related stratabound mineralisation with pXRF results confirming high-grade manganese.
HIGHLIGHTS:
- Drilling has intersected high grade manganese at the W2 prospect1, Wandanya located 80 km south of the Woodie Woodie Mine
- Portable XRF (pXRF) analysis indicate grade ranges of between 15% to 55% Mn.
- The mineralisation is interpreted as fault related hydrothermal, stratabound manganese enrichment representing a significant new exploration model on the eastern margin of the Oakover Basin.
- This style of mineralisation expands the scope to explore for additional high-grade mineralisation along strike where the Company has mapped 1.75km of intermittent high grade outcropping manganese, down dip within the sedimentary sequence and potentially along associated feeder faults.
- Expedited laboratory-based manganese assay results for selected representative holes from W2 are expected in the coming weeks to confirm the pXRF results.
- Samples have been collected for density-based beneficiation test work to potentially produce a high-grade manganese product
Black Canyon’s Managing Director Brendan Cummins said:
“It was exciting to be back on the rig and drilling the first holes into the W2 prospect. With each hole drilled we began to build a picture of the distribution, thickness and internal structure of the mineralisation. What was of particular interest was the consistency of the horizon over 240m strike and how we intersected mineralisation on the eastern most holes on every line so the mineralisation remains open to the north, south and east.”
“Iron alteration and brecciation often associated from manganese mineralisation atWoodieWoodie wasalsoobserved.SignificantlytheageoftherockswehavedrilledatW2areyoungerthantherocks thathostWoodieWoodiehoweversimilarprocessesmayhaveoccurredprovidingmanganeserich ffuidsaccesstoreceptiveunitstoformthisstrataboundmineralisation.

KPMG: Building New Mines an "Uphill Struggle," but Execs Positive on Sector Long Term
A recent KPMG report reveals that while mining leaders have a positive outlook on the industry's future, they are facing significant obstacles when it comes to bringing new mines into production.
The survey, which gathered insights from 100 mining executives worldwide, primarily in Canada, highlights challenges related to regulatory compliance, community engagement, environmental concerns and access to capital.
The report indicates that while nearly 80 percent of mining leaders are optimistic about the industry's growth prospects over the next five years, their ability to bring new projects to fruition is being hindered by various factors.
Heather Cheeseman, national mining leader at KPMG Canada, pointed out that the roadblocks are particularly daunting in areas like permitting, which continues to be a lengthy and complex process for many in the industry.
"The consensus among mining leaders is that their ability to develop new mines is becoming an almost insurmountable uphill struggle. Permitting remains as live an issue as ever, with the length of time and effort required to secure permits showing little sign of improving," Cheeseman said in a Thursday (September 26) press release.
The challenges outlined in the KPMG report come at a crucial time for the mining sector. The International Energy Agency has previously warned that without increased investment in mining projects and recycling, there could be a shortfall in the supply of critical minerals such as lithium and copper, both essential for technologies driving the energy transition.
By 2035, the International Energy Agency projects that global lithium supply will meet only 50 percent of the anticipated demand, while copper resources will cover only 70 percent.
Despite these concerns, mining leaders remain optimistic, partially due to government support for critical minerals exploration and development. Sentiment regarding the growth of the industry remains positive as compared to KPMG’s last global survey in 2022, which found only 62 percent of executives were optimistic.
However, this optimism is tempered by various operational risks. Community relations and securing social license to operate have emerged as the top risks identified by the industry leaders surveyed. Furthermore, the report highlights issues like commodity price volatility, geopolitical risks and access to financing as high-ranking concerns.
The report suggests that mining companies are increasingly turning to mergers and acquisitions (M&A) as a growth strategy, with 46 percent of leaders indicating that M&A is critical for future expansion. At the same time, strategic alliances, joint ventures and partnerships are seen as essential for accessing new technologies and skills.
Katherine Wetmore, GTA mining leader for KPMG in Canada, noted that a focus on critical minerals — particularly copper and lithium — continues to shape the resource industry's M&A activity.
According to the report, over 70 percent of critical mineral deals by volume last year involved copper and lithium.
These commodities are integral to renewable energy technologies and battery production, and securing stable sources of supply is expected to be a driving factor in continued M&A activity. “Those that embrace transformation and change are most likely to achieve a profitable business model for the future,” Wetmore stressed.
The report also notes the growing importance of collaboration between industry and government, particularly as the world’s demand for critical minerals continues to grow.
A vast majority — 90 percent — of mining leaders agree that more streamlined and aligned permitting processes will be necessary to meet future demand and ensure the timely development of new mines.
The findings of the KPMG report illustrate a mining sector that is grappling with a variety of challenges, while remaining cautiously optimistic about its long-term prospects.
The industry’s ability to overcome hurdles related to permitting, community relations and ESG compliance will be critical to its success in supporting the global transition to clean energy.

Termination of Fifield Project Earn-in Agreement and Funding Update
Rimfire Pacific Mining Limited (Rimfire or the Company) (ASX: RIM) provides the following updates in respect of the Fifield Project, the Avondale Project, funding arrangements and next steps.
Termination of Fifield Project Earn-in Agreement
Rimfire has two projects in the Lachlan Fold Belt of NSW, each of which are prospective for critical minerals – the Fifield Project and the Avondale Project. Activities at both projects have been funded by Golden Plains Resources Pty Ltd (GPR) under separate earn-in arrangements, which have the potential to see GPR earn a joint venture interest of up to 50.1% (in the case of the Fifield Project) and up to 75% (in the case of the Avondale Project).
Rimfire has issued a notice of termination to GPR in respect of the Fifield Project Earn-in Agreement, with the termination stated to take immediate effect.
The Company has exercised a termination right which has arisen as a result of a change of control of GPR following the judgement of the Victorian Supreme Court in: Resource Capital Ltd v Giovinazzo [2024] VSC 548 (Judgement), delivered 6 September 2024.
Given the Fifield Project Earn-in Agreement was terminated prior to GPR satisfying the earn-in requirements, GPR will have no interest in the Fifield Project going forward. The express terms of the Fifield Project Earn-in Agreement do not require the Company to repay to GPR any funding provided by it prior to termination in these circumstances.
The Fifield Project contains the Murga North Scandium Prospect where Rimfire has recently reported an Inferred Mineral Resource estimate of 21Mt @ 125 ppm Sc (4,050t Sc Oxide) as well as an Exploration Target of 100 to 200Mt at 100 to 200ppm Sc* (15 – 46Kt Sc Oxide) for the surrounding Murga area (See Rimfire ASX Announcement dated 9 September 2024)**.
Rimfire is considering its rights in relation to the Avondale Project Earn-in Agreement in light of the Judgement and is currently seeking further information from GPR.
The Avondale Project contains the Melrose Scandium Prospect where Rimfire has recently reported an Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource estimate of 3Mt @ 240 ppm Sc (1,120t Sc Oxide) (See Rimfire ASX Announcement dated 9 September 2024)**.
