Highlights

  • Constellation Resources expands hydrogen and copper-gold exploration in WA
  • Ularring project reveals significant geochemical anomaly
  • New soil gas programs launched for hydrogen system mapping

Constellation Resources (ASX:CR1) has outlined major developments across its Western Australian exploration assets during the recent quarter. The company continues to advance its focus on natural hydrogen systems while building momentum at the Ularring Copper-Gold Project. Though not part of the ASX 200, Constellation’s growing activity places it on the radar among resource-focused market watchers.

Natural Hydrogen Strategy Gaining Momentum

Constellation’s natural hydrogen exploration spans a vast 87,602 square kilometre portfolio across nine Special Prospecting Authorities with Acreage Options. These tenements are distributed across the Edmund-Collier, Yerrida, and Ashburton basins.

Recent reprocessing of seismic data, particularly on seismic line 10GA-CP2, has confirmed the presence of organic-rich Blue Billy and Discovery formations—key geological structures considered favourable for natural hydrogen generation. Complementary testing of Total Organic Carbon (TOC) from multiple drill holes returned results that suggest considerable hydrogen potential.

Low-Cost Validation Programs Begin

With a forward-thinking approach, Constellation has begun stakeholder engagement and initiated the necessary environmental approvals to commence soil gas sampling. The company plans to utilise portable detectors to identify surface-level gas seepage—including hydrogen and methane—as an initial screening method. These efforts aim to validate deeper hydrogen systems through a cost-effective exploration process.

Copper-Gold Exploration Accelerates at Ularring

The Ularring Project, situated northeast of Perth, has revealed a significant soil geochemical anomaly at the Chatham prospect. Sample analysis identified copper and gold traces, supported by pathfinder elements. This anomaly aligns with the Meenar Shear and a late-time VTEM geophysical signature, suggesting subsurface sulphide-rich structures. The company is planning additional infill sampling, followed by reconnaissance drilling to further evaluate the prospect.

Corporate Progress and Exploration Funding

In line with its strategic roadmap, Constellation recently secured fresh capital through a rights entitlement offer. The funds are earmarked for advancing current exploration programs and evaluating further resource opportunities both domestically and internationally. The company's focus remains aligned with expanding its asset base and unlocking new mineral systems across underexplored regions.

FAQs

Q1: What resources is Constellation Resources currently exploring?

Constellation is actively working on natural hydrogen systems and copper-gold mineralisation in Western Australia.

Q2: Where is the Ularring Copper-Gold Project located?

The Ularring Project is positioned around 100 kilometres northeast of Perth in a mineral-rich zone.

Q3: How is natural hydrogen being identified in the current exploration phase?

The company is using soil gas sampling and reprocessed seismic data to detect surface gas seepage and validate subsurface hydrogen potential.
