Highlights
- Resolution Minerals has completed 16 diamond drill holes at the Golden Gate South prospect, totalling 4,470m , or around one-third of its planned 13,700m drilling campaign.
- All drill core has been logged, photographed and inspected for scheelite , with initial sample batches from the first four holes dispatched for multi-element laboratory analysis .
- The exploration program continues, supported by two active drill rigs .
- The ongoing drilling campaign will continue testing gold and tungsten targets across the project as Resolution Minerals advances its exploration program.
Resolution Minerals Ltd (ASX:RML) has progressed its drilling campaign at the Horse Heaven Antimony-Tungsten-Gold-Silver Project in Idaho, USA, completing 16 diamond core holes at the Golden Gate South prospect. The company has now drilled 4,470m , representing around one-third of its planned 13,700m (45 holes) exploration program , as it works to expand the understanding of gold mineralisation across the project.
Drilling Campaign Advances at Golden Gate South
Resolution Minerals reported that 16 diamond core holes have been completed to their planned depths at the Golden Gate South prospect. The completed holes include HH-GG26-001 to HH-GG26-007 and HH-GG26-010 to HH-GG26-018 , delivering a combined 4,470m of drilling , with an average hole depth of approximately 279m .
Core Logging and Sample Analysis Underway
All the completed drill core has been logged and photographed by company geologists and contractors. All core has also been examined for scheelite , a key tungsten-bearing mineral . Where scheelite has been identified, detailed photographs and mineralised intervals have been documented.
In addition, two large batches of core samples , including material from HH-GG26-001 to HH-GG26-004 , have been sent for multi-element laboratory analysis .
Two Drill Rigs Continue 2026 Exploration Program
The 2026 Golden Gate drilling campaign continues with two drill rigs operating on site . The exploration program is focused on defining the scale and continuity of gold mineralisation at both Golden Gate North and Golden Gate South , including testing extensions both along strike and at depth .
The campaign also aims to assess the extent of tungsten mineralisation surrounding the historic Golden Gate Tungsten Mine and investigate a broad tungsten soil anomaly identified at Golden Gate South .
Horse Heaven Project Positioned Beside Major Idaho Gold Project
The Golden Gate prospect is part of RML's Horse Heaven Project in the USA . The project is located immediately adjacent to Perpetua Resources' permitted Stibnite Gold Project , which is recognised as a significant antimony-gold development in the region.
The latest drilling update follows the inclusion of the Antimony Ridge prospect of the Horse Heaven Project under the FAST-41 Transparency Coverage program by the US Permitting Council , announced in April 2026.
