Unlocking a New High-Grade Antimony-Tungsten Structure Adds Potential to Wild Cattle Creek

Trigg Minerals Limited (ASX: TMG| OTCQB: TMGLF) ("Trigg" or the "Company") has announced Unlocking a New High-Grade Antimony-Tungsten Structure Adds Potential to Wild Cattle Creek.


HIGHLIGHTS

  • Trigg has confirmed high-grade antimony and tungsten mineralisation beneath the primary Wild Cattle Creek deposit, with assays of 2.14% tungsten (Hole 10WRD16) and 27.6% antimony (Hole 10WRD16W) (refer Appendix 1).
  • The parallel structure is characterised by average grades of 13% antimony (Sb) and 1.03% tungsten (W).
  • The 2024 MRE omitted the parallel structure, which lies 35m north of WCC and remains open along strike (west) and at depth.
  • Both the WCC alteration halo and the parallel structure indicate a significant westward increase in antimony and tungsten grades, underscoring robust resource upgrade potential.
  • Limited historical focus on tungsten presents a significant opportunity to unlock additional resources and value through further exploration and assessment.
  • Wild Cattle Creek is Australia's widest known antimony deposit, with an average mineralised width of 20 meters, significantly exceeding typical narrow vein-hosted Sb deposits in the region.
  • Drilling results reveal an underlying gold system and robust enrichment within the stockwork alteration of the Wild Cattle Creek antimony deposit, suggesting further exploration could unlock additional value like Hillgrove and Costerfield.

The recent Chinese government suspension of tungsten exports, effective February 2025, has sent shockwaves through global markets. China is the world's dominant supplier, responsible for over 80% of global tungsten production, making this a pivotal moment for alternative sources to emerge.

Trigg Minerals’ (ASX: TMG) Wild Cattle Creek deposit at its 100% owned Achilles Project is now in sharp focus. Previously overlooked in historical drilling, the high-grade tungsten mineralisation could be crucial in securing a domestic supply of this critical mineral.

Wild Cattle Creek has long been known for its high-grade antimony, with Trigg recently upgrading the Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) to 1.52Mt at 1.G7% Sb, containing 2G,G02 tonnes of antimony comprising 0.G6Mt at 2.02% Sb (Indicated) and 0.56Mt at 1.88% Sb (Inferred); see ASX announcement dated 19 December 2024. However, tungsten mineralisation—strongly associated with the alteration selvage near high-grade antimony zones—has largely been overlooked.

Trigg has confirmed that high-grade antimony and tungsten (Figure 1; Table 1) are also present in a subparallel vein lying approximately 35m beneath (i.e. north of) the primary Wild Cattle Creek system. This vein extends over 100 metres in the westernmost sections of the deposit. It remains open at depth and along strike, highlighting the strong potential for additional resources in antimony and tungsten.
