Momentum Builds as MinRex Prepares to Unlock Mineral Potential in WA’s Rich Biranup Zone! MinRex Resources has hit a major milestone with its Fraser Range Copper-Gold Project. As of 5th May 2025, the company has successfully secured all critical approvals to commence RC (Reverse Circulation) drilling. These approvals include heritage clearance and the Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DEMIRS) Programme of Works authorisation—greenlighting the next phase of exploration. Located about 120km northeast of Esperance in Western Australia, the Fraser Range Project now stands at the cusp of a significant exploration initiative, targeting promising mineralisation zones known for their copper and gold potential.

MinRex Resources Limited (ASX: MRR) has taken a bold step forward in its mineral exploration journey by commencing a new phase of reverse circulation (RC) drilling at the Fraser Range Copper-Gold Project in Western Australia. This move marks a pivotal moment in the company’s strategic exploration plans, as it seeks to uncover significant mineral deposits in one of Australia’s most promising geological regions. Located approximately 120km northeast of Esperance, the Fraser Range Project lies within a region long recognized for its rich mineralisation and exploration potential. The area is geologically aligned with the Albany-Fraser Orogen, a formation historically linked to major nickel and copper discoveries.

MinRex Resources Limited (ASX: MRR) has officially commenced a new chapter in its exploration journey with the launch of a reverse circulation (RC) drilling campaign at the Fraser Range Copper-Gold Project in Western Australia. This milestone marks a crucial step forward in the company’s commitment to unlocking the vast mineral potential that lies beneath one of Australia’s most geologically significant terrains.

MinRex Resources Limited (ASX: MRR) has entered 2025 with impressive momentum, announcing its upcoming high-priority drilling campaign at the highly prospective Fraser Range Copper-Gold Project in Western Australia.

In the heart of Northern Queensland lies one of Australia's most compelling gold exploration frontiers — the Alice River Gold Project, Pacgold Limited’s flagship asset. With global gold prices soaring to historic highs, the project is perfectly positioned to benefit from both geological potential and market momentum. Spanning a vast 377 km² of granted exploration permits and eight mining leases, the Alice River Gold Project is located within a 30-kilometre-long gold-bearing shear zone—a structural corridor known to host significant mineralisation. The region’s rich history of gold production and its geological similarities to major deposits mark it as an exceptional location for discovery.

In a significant leap forward for its exploration strategy, Pacgold Limited has identified a large, doughnut-shaped magnetic anomaly spanning over 1 kilometre in diameter. This remarkable discovery could mark the beginning of a new chapter in the search for a Tier-1 gold deposit in Queensland. The newly identified anomaly exhibits a distinctive non-magnetic core, believed to be caused by intense phyllic alteration—a type of hydrothermal alteration often linked with major gold systems. This geological feature strongly resembles the magnetite destruction zone at the Mt Leyshon deposit, which historically yielded over 5 million ounces of gold.

Pacgold Limited (ASX: PGO) has launched a dynamic new phase of Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling at its wholly owned Alice River Gold Project, located 300km northwest of Cairns, North Queensland. This latest initiative kicks off a 10,000-metre drilling campaign aimed at unlocking the project's promising mineral potential.

Challenger Gold Limited has fortified its position in Ecuador’s mining sector by signing a landmark Investment Protection Agreement (IPA) with the Ecuadorian Government.
