Kalgoorlie Gold Mining (ASX:KAL) (‘KalGold’ or ‘the Company’) has commenced aircore drilling at two new exploration target areas within the Pinjin Gold Project on 9 October 2024 (Figure 1).
Figure 1 – New drill areas (pink labels) that are the focus of the new drill program at Pinjin. Projection: MGA 94 Zone 51.
Testing Two New Gold Target Areas
The aircore drill program currently underway focuses on two new exploration target areas at Kirgella West and Kirgella East (Figure 1). The target areas are both located near to the Kirgella Gift and Providence deposits where the Company recently defined a JORC (2012) Inferred Mineral Resource of 2.34 Mt at 1.0 g/t Au for 76,400 oz (ASX: KAL 25 July 2024). Both target areas show promising structural and geological complexity that has potential to host gold mineralisation. These targets have not been previously drill-tested and so are undergoing first-pass, widely spaced drilling in this program.
The initial program is scheduled to run for two weeks, drilling up to 4,500 m across key target areas in priority order.
KalGold Targets Untapped Potential in Southern LTZ
This marks KalGold’s first systematic assessment of the gold potential of the greater Pinjin Project area. For the first time, we are moving beyond historic efforts at Kirgella Gift and Providence, and the Wessex prospect adjacent to the Anglo Saxon gold mine.
KalGold believes the southern part of the Laverton Tectonic Zone (LTZ) holds significant potential, comparable to its northern end, which hosts major gold deposits like Sunrise Dam, Granny Smith, Wallaby and the Laverton Goldfield (Figure 2). The southern LTZ, remains underexplored due to poor surface exposure and limited historic exploration efforts. However, recent discoveries like Rebecca in the LTZ and Breaker/Lake Roe in the adjacent Celia Tectonic Zone show the area’s potential. KalGold aims to make similar discoveries on its LTZ tenure.
Figure 2 – KalGold’s Pinjin Gold Project within the Laverton Tectonic Zone, showing current targets, work programs and other major deposits of the region. 50km grid. Projection: MGA 94 Zone 51.
KalGold believes that drilling is the only effective way to test the LTZ on our Pinjin Gold Project, given transported cover over much of the area. Typically this approach results in several misses, but it also has the potential for significant discoveries. By applying a scientifically rigorous approach, KalGold is increasing its chances of success, focusing on key target areas that display geological, geophysical and geochemical hallmarks of gold mineralisation.
Progress will be driven by results, as well as logistics. Currently, KalGold is working to secure a new heritage survey over the area, with a focus on E28/3134. Heritage clearance of the unexplored eastern areas is important for on-ground investigation where the high-grade metamorphic rocks of the Rebecca sequence are interpreted to be juxtaposed by the LTZ against the host sequence of the Pinjin Goldfield. Additionally, known palaeochannel distributions are considered, allowing for initial exploration of shallow targets before potentially pursuing targets at depth as the palaeochannels can be over 100m deep.

Yvonne Blaszczyk: Gold to Keep Rising as Global Paradigm Shift Plays Out
Speaking to the Investing News Network, Yvonne Blaszczyk, president and CEO of BMG Group, shared her thoughts on gold and global geopolitics, focusing on US President Donald Trump's rapid changes since being elected and the impact they're having domestically and internationally.
In her view, the world is in the midst of a paradigm shift, and gold's role will become increasingly key.
"One of the most important factors is what central banks are doing — central banks are accumulating, buying gold, and it's a huge indicator of where the prices will go," she said.
Watch the interview above for more of her thoughts on those topics and more.

Athena Gold Sees Opportunity in Shifting North American Focus by Major Gold Miners
The global gold-mining industry is witnessing a strategic pivot toward North America, prioritizing projects in the US and Canada over traditionally resource-rich but politically volatile jurisdictions, according to Koby Kushner, incoming CEO of Athena Gold (CSE:ATHA,OTCQB:AHNR).
In an interview with the Investing News Network, Kushner highlighted key factors driving this trend and how Athena Gold is positioning itself to capitalize on the shift.
“Geopolitical tensions are certainly one of them. Some jurisdictions are perceived as more risky than others, with places like Canada and Nevada perceived as less risky,” Kushner explained.
“What we saw happen to Barrick Gold (TSX:ABX,NYSE:ABX) in Mali is a great example of companies wanting to get to safer mining jurisdictions. We also saw, in the last couple years, Kinross Gold (TSX:K,NYSE:KGC) exit Russia completely.”
Beyond political stability, Kushner noted that North America’s rich geology continues to yield significant gold discoveries, citing the Great Bear discovery in Ontario’s Red Lake district, and AngloGold Ashanti’s (NYSE:AU,JSE:ANG) Silicon discovery in Nevada’s Walker Lane district.
Athena Gold is actively advancing its projects in these emerging hotspots. The company’s Laird Lake project, located in the prolific Red Lake district, sits near several major gold producers, including Kinross and Evolution Mining (ASX:EVN,OTC Pink:CAHPF).
“It’s always nice when your next-door neighbors are investing heavily into their projects,” Kushner said. “It seems that every few years this camp is blessed with a new billion-dollar discovery.”
Similarly, in Nevada, Athena’s Excelsior Springs project benefits from its proximity to Kinross and AngloGold’s developments.
“Kinross is very active in the Walker Lane district, they’re our nearest neighbor there. And just further south is Anglo’s Silicon project. AngloGold is investing heavily in the Walker Lane trend,” Kushner explained.
“Last year, they put more than 40 percent of their global exploration spend into (their) project. And this is a jurisdiction, a country where they don’t currently produce a single ounce of gold. So what does that tell you?”

- 100 percent ownership of a 2,686 sq km strategic landholding in Ghana’s highly prospective Upper West region.
- Flagship Kpali and Kandia gold projects with high-grade gold mineralization and significant resource expansion potential.
- Strong management team with a proven track record in West African gold discoveries and project development.
- Proximity to the multi-million-ounce Black Volta gold project, enhancing economic potential and development synergies.
- Robust exploration pipeline with systematic drilling programs aimed at resource expansion and near-term development.
- Commitment to sustainable and responsible exploration practices, with strong community and government engagement.
- Positioned to capitalize on the growing global demand for gold through disciplined exploration and strategic partnerships.
Key Projects
Kpali Gold Project
The Kpali gold project, a cornerstone of Castle Minerals' exploration efforts, is strategically located approximately 30 kilometers west of the regional town of Sawla in Ghana's Upper West region. Encompassing the Kpali and Bundi prospects, along with several satellite discoveries, the project area lies within the 170 sq km Degbiwu prospecting license (PL 10/26), which is encircled by the 1,033 sq km Gbiniyiri retention license (RL 8/27). Notably, the western boundaries of these licenses are delineated by the Black Volta River, marking the border with Burkina Faso.
Geologically, Kpali is situated at the convergence of two significant greenstone belts — the Bole-Bolgatanga and Wa-Lawra/Boromo belts — and three regional-scale structures. This unique positioning is associated with several major Birimian-hosted gold deposits in the region, enhancing the project's potential for substantial gold mineralization.
Recent exploration activities have yielded promising results. In February 2025, an eight-hole reverse circulation (RC) drilling program intersected shallow, high-grade mineralization in all holes. Notable intercepts include 12 meters at 8.29 grams per ton (g/t) gold from 25 meters, including 6 meters at 11.60 g/t gold from 31 meters, with a peak 1-meter intercept of 20.43 g/t gold at 36 meters. These findings have significantly upgraded the status of the Kpali gold prospect, suggesting the presence of multiple sub-parallel lodes with high-grade gold mineralization.
The broader district encompassing Kpali contains several other high-conviction prospects, reinforcing its potential as an emerging new exploration frontier. Castle Minerals plans to undertake further drilling programs, including step-out drilling, to delineate the extent of mineralization and assess the project's viability for future development.
In summary, the Kpali Gold Project's strategic location, favorable geology, and recent high-grade drilling results position it as a significant asset within Castle Minerals' portfolio, with the potential to evolve into a major gold production site in Ghana.
Kandia Gold Project
The Kandia gold project is situated in Ghana's Upper West Region. Discovered in 2010 during reconnaissance field mapping, the project encompasses a 16-kilometer-long corridor along a significant granite-sediment contact within Birimian greenstone terrain. This geological setting is known for hosting substantial gold mineralization, with the Kandia prospect itself identified through previously unknown artisanal workings spread over approximately 600 meters of strike.
Initial exploration efforts included extensive soil sampling, airborne geophysical surveys and RC drilling, totaling 264 holes over 19,541 meters. These activities led to the identification of two primary mineralized zones: the "4,000 Zone" and the "8,000 Zone."
Strategically, the Kandia project benefits from its proximity to major gold deposits. The 5.1-million-ounce Namdini gold project lies to the northeast on the same Bole-Bolgatanga greenstone belt, while the 2.8-million-ounce Black Volta gold project's Julie deposit is immediately along strike from the Kandia mineralized trend. This favorable location enhances Kandia's economic attractiveness and potential for development synergies.
Future exploration plans for Kandia involve extensional drilling at the "4,000 Zone" and targeted drilling in other areas with historically wide-spaced shallow drilling, such as the "8,000 Zone," where artisanal mining activities are also present. The primary objective is to delineate multiple near-surface, open-pitable deposits along the 16-kilometer prospective contact, advancing the project toward potential development.

Ramelius Resources Wins 2025 Craig Oliver Award for Exploration Excellence
Gold miner Ramelius Resources (ASX:RMS,OTC Pink:RMLRF) received the prestigious Craig Oliver Award at the RIU Explorers Conference in Fremantle, Western Australia, held from February 18 to 20.
Established in 2011, the Craig Oliver Award is an annual recognition for exploration excellence dedicated to its namesake, a former Sundance Resources director and known Western Australia figure.
The award is handed out at the RIU Explorers Conference every year. For this edition, the award was presented by Craig Oliver’s daughter, Hanna Oliver, and was received by Ramelius Managing Director Mark Zeptner.
“It’s actually a very pleasant surprise receiving this award today honouring the legacy of Craig Oliver,” Zeptner told Resources Roadhouse. “I note that it is an all-rounder award and I would like to feel that we fit that criteria very well. We are a cash flow generating producer, we have been a successful acquirer and, in my mind, an underrated explorer.”
During the December quarter of 2024, Ramelius achieved record underlying free cashflow, reporting AU$174.5 million for the quarter. Group gold output came in at 85,311 ounces at an AISC of AU$1,491 per ounce.
Also during Q4, the company completed a prefeasibility study (PFS) for its Rebecca-Roe project, with gold production placed at an average of 130,000 ounces per annum over a nine year mine life.
According to Ramelius, the PFS positions the project as one of its most valuable assets.
‘The long-term outlook positions the Rebecca-Roe Gold project as an able replacement for Edna May, which when combined with the Mt Magnet operation, establishes a consolidated profile from FY26 of average annual gold production over 220,000 ounces per annum at an AISC below AU$2,050 per ounce,” Zeptner said in a December 12 release.
A final investment decision for Rebecca-Roe is expected in July.
The other companies under consideration for this year's Craig Oliver Award were BCI Minerals (ASX:BCI) and Spartan Resources (ASX:SPN,OTC Pink:GYYSF), which also celebrated strong achievements in 2024.
BCI is moving forward at its Mardie salt and potash project on Western Australia's West Pilbara coast. It is set to become Australia's largest and the world’s third largest solar salt project.
Meanwhile, Spartan Resources reported a new discovery at its Dalgaranga gold project in Western Australia, which is currently the focus of an intensive three to four rig drill program. Ramelius participated in a capital raising announced by Spartan this past December, increasing its stake in the firm from 18.3 percent to 19.9 percent.
In 2024, Azure Minerals (ASX:AZS) was the Craig Oliver Award recipient. It was nominated alongside Genesis Minerals (ASX:GMD,OTC Pink:GSISF), Boss Energy (ASX:BOE,OTCQX:BQSSF) and Santana Minerals (ASX:SMI).
