Highlights:

  • High-definition surveys identify multiple copper targets within the Mt Isa North project area.

  • Project situated in a key mining region with prospects for copper, gold, zinc, and uranium.

  • New exploration manager appointed, with drilling preparations in progress for an April commencement.

Antares Metals (ASX:AM5) has outlined new copper exploration targets at the Mt Isa North project after conducting high-resolution gravity and magnetic surveys. The project, positioned northeast of Mount Isa, is located near established mining operations and significant resource assets, providing a promising setting for mineral exploration.

Exploration Progress and Regional Significance

Recent geophysical surveys at the Conglomerate Creek prospect have revealed a mineral system linked to prominent geological structures. This work has identified several untested targets situated beneath sediment cover, opening avenues for further exploration. The broader project area spans a substantial region that has seen limited exploration activity over previous decades.

Strategic Project Development

Exploration at Mt Isa North focuses on expanding mineralization at the Surprise project while updating uranium resource estimates to align with current industry standards. The presence of copper, gold, zinc, and uranium within the tenement package underscores the diverse resource potential within the area.

Leadership and Drilling Plans

Matthew Porter has been appointed as Exploration Manager, bringing extensive experience in Queensland’s mineral exploration sector. His expertise will support the execution of key exploration programs aimed at advancing project objectives.

Preparations for drilling activities are progressing, with site assessments and contractor arrangements nearing completion. Drilling is scheduled to commence in April, marking the next phase in exploration efforts at Mt Isa North.
