Platina to Kick Off Back-to-Back Drilling at Challa and Beete, Eyes Oxide Potential at Xanadu

Platina Resources Limited (ASX:PGM) is gearing up for an active June with follow-up aircore drilling programs set to commence at its Challa and Beete Gold Projects in Western Australia.

ASX:PGM is trading at $0.019.

Drill-Ready: Challa & Beete Exploration Campaign

⛏️ Challa: 14-hole (1,690m) aircore program targeting extensions of greenfield hit — 12m @ 0.66g/t Au from 100m, incl. 4m @ 1.7g/t Au

📍 Focus on NW-trending splay of the craton-scale Challa Shear

⛏️ Beete: 39-hole (1,536m) program following up on anomalous Au-As zones identified in Phase 1

Xanadu Update: Oxide Focus After Deep Hole Miss

🧪 Government-funded Cleopatra diamond hole (380m) didn’t intersect deeper target

🌕 Shallow zone returned 16.1m @ 0.2g/t Au from 202m — suggesting deeper potential further south

📈 Large 10km+ oxide blanket at Xanadu West remains a key focus, with potential for future gold resource growth

Management Insight:

Corey Nolan, Managing Director: “Our aircore drilling is targeting compelling anomalies from earlier campaigns, while Xanadu’s shallow oxide system remains highly prospective and worthy of further investigation.”

Why This Matters:

With multi-project drilling underway and untapped oxide gold potential, Platina is positioning itself for a pivotal year of gold exploration across tier-one WA terrains.

✨ Multi-project momentum. Proven anomalies. Oxide gold opportunity unfolding.

🔨 MinRex Wraps Up Drilling at Fraser Range Copper-Gold Project (ASX: MRR) | Assays Pending August 2025 🌟

MinRex Resources (ASX: MRR) has successfully completed its RC drilling program at the Fraser Range Copper-Gold Project, located northeast of Esperance in Western Australia's renowned Albany-Fraser Belt. 🗺️⛏️

This program targeted five high-priority prospects — Talisker, Glenmorangie, Oban, Benriach, and Glendronach — as MinRex advances exploration in one of Australia's most prospective mineral corridors, home to major discoveries like IGO’s Nova-Bollinger deposit. 🌍⚒️

Key Highlights:

✅ 9 RC drill holes completed, totalling 1,958m ✅ Drilling focused on high-impact copper-gold targets with IOCG and BHT potential ✅ First drilling campaign on tenure following modern geophysical reinterpretation ✅ Fully funded by MinRex, with on-ground operations managed by JV partner West Cobar Metals (ASX: WC1) ✅ Assays expected August 2025 — critical for JV decision-making

🗨️ Technical Director Ian Shackleton commented:

"We thank the West Cobar team for executing the program safely and effectively. We look forward to reviewing the assays and working together to assess the next steps for this promising project."

📊 Investor Outlook:

At a share price of $0.008 and market cap of ~$8.68 million, MinRex offers high leverage to exploration success in a Tier-1 jurisdiction. With global copper and gold prices showing strength — and green energy and inflation tailwinds — the timing is favourable for well-placed explorers.

Copper is up 22.47% YTD, driven by demand for EVs, renewables, and grid upgrades. ⚡ Gold remains near record highs, up 27.55% YTD, supported by macro uncertainty and investor demand. 💰

Fraser Range represents an opportunity for MinRex to secure exposure to world-class copper-gold potential alongside experienced JV partners.

🔍 Project Snapshot:

Ongoing fieldwork reveals high-grade copper targets across an ~8km potential strike zone between Katwaro and Chimban South prospects.

📌 Key Highlights:

✅ Multiple artisanal copper pits discovered in and around Patriot’s licence package

⚡ Rock samples returned 33.08% Cu at CBR South and 17.36% Cu at Chimban South via portable XRF

➕ Additional copper occurrences validated within licence boundaries from adjacent strike extensions

🗺️ Multiple high-priority copper targets now established, building on earlier discoveries (ASX: 27 Feb & 14 Mar 2025)

🗣️ “Our field mapping continues to expand the copper prospectivity of our licences. These new discoveries reinforce the district-scale potential of our ground holdings,” the Company stated.

Investor Outlook:

Patriot Lithium (ASX: PAT) is gaining strong traction not just in lithium, but now emerging as a serious copper contender. With rock samples showing ultra high-grade copper up to 33.08% Cu, and new strike extensions confirmed within tenements, PAT’s diversified exploration upside is growing fast. Currently trading at $0.039, PAT offers investors exposure to two highly strategic commodities — copper and lithium — both essential to the clean energy transition.
