Significant Gold, Copper and Nickel Soil Anomalies at Lady Grey Project

Lanthanein Resources Limited (ASX: LNR) (“Lanthanein” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the gold and base metal results from the recent tenement wide soil sampling programme at the Lady Grey Lithium Project (“Lady Grey”) directly adjacent to Covalent Lithium’s (SQM & Wesfarmers) Earl Grey Mine, 189Mt @1.53% Li2O¹ at Mount Holland in the Forrestania Greenstone Belt. The programme collected 1,893 samples and has identified multiple coincident gold, copper and nickel anomalies (Figure 1, 2 and 3).


  • New Gold, Copper and Nickel soil anomalies identified in the recently completed soil sampling programme
  • >2km long gold anomaly coincident with structural flexure
  • Peak result of 256ppb Au, with a total of 87 samples returning ≥25ppb Au
  • Historic Bounty Gold Mine which produced ~1.3moz Au on Covalent Lithium’s (SQM & Wesfarmers, 50/50) Earl Grey Mine, 189Mt @1.53% Li2O¹ Mount Holland mine site located adjacent to Lady Grey Project
  • Peak result of 170ppm Cu, with a total of 300 samples returning ≥50ppm Cu
  • Peak result of 263ppm Ni, with a total of 464 samples returning ≥100ppm Ni
  • Strong spatial correlation between Gold, Copper, Nickel and Sulphur anomalism
  • Exploration work programmes targeting drilling mid year

Mr Brian Thomas, Technical Director of Lanthanein commented: “We are greatly encouraged by the identification of multiple new gold, copper and nickel anomalies picked up by the recent tenement wide soil sampling programme which adds another dimension to the project wide prospectivity following the recent discovery of two large Lithium anomalies, Godzilla and Avenger. The Forrestania region is well known historically for its significant gold production with the old Bounty Mine producing ~1.3moz Au, plus the region has proven nickel endowment with the IGO’s, Forrestania Operations ~30km to the south. We will now accelerate our work programmes and approvals processes to be drilling these targets by mid-year.”

UltraFine+TM Soil Sampling Programme

The survey was completed on a minimum spacing of 400m x 100m, with a total of 1,893 soil samples collected.

Figures 1 through 4 show the soil anomalies delineated from the sampling results. The five gold soil anomalies in Figure 1, represent areas with >50ppb Au – considered highly anomalous using this soil sampling technique. The largest gold anomaly is extends over 2km of strike and is located in a highly favourable structural setting. The copper and nickel anomalies are spatially adjacent to each other along with the high sulphur with a peak value of 5.33% and 50 samples >0.05% which would indicate the presence of weathered sulphides. Exploration reconnaissance and further geochemical sampling is planned to investigate the potential for magmatic sulphides and the presence of gossanous outcrop or subcrop.

Hudbay Delivers Strong First Quarter 2024 Results

Hudbay Minerals Inc. ("Hudbay" or the "company") (TSX, NYSE: HBM) today released its first quarter 2024 financial results. All amounts are in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted.

"These results demonstrate the strength of our diversified operating base, with continued contributions from the high-grade Pampacancha deposit in Peru, better-than-planned gold production in Manitoba and benefits starting to be realized from operational stabilization efforts at the Copper Mountain mine in British Columbia. We are well on track to achieve all of our production and cost guidance metrics. Hudbay's resilient operating platform offers leading exposure to copper and unique complementary exposure to gold, which together with our quality pipeline of growth assets, provide significant upside potential for further value creation at higher copper and gold prices."

Although concerns about demand from China remain, worries over dwindling global supply are heating up.

Copper has also been gaining momentum on anticipation of interest rate cuts from the US Federal Reserve.
