Great Southern Mining has lit up its Duketon Gold Project in Western Australia with shallow, high-grade hits peaking at 23.9 grams per tonne gold across a 4.5km strike at its Amy Clarke prospect. The discovery sits just 8km from Regis Resources' Garden Well mill, adding another promising chapter to the company's growing Laverton-area gold portfolio.
Great Southern Mining has its sights set on a maiden gold resource with a new drill campaign at the company's Golden Boulder prospect, an exciting sub-set of its Duketon gold project in the Eastern Goldfields. The 7000-metre RC program is aiming to carve out a maiden resource in the north of Golden Boulder where previous drilling defined 650m of semi-contiguous gold mineralisation.
Great Southern Mining has secured up to $337,500 in exploration funding under the WA Government's coveted Exploration Incentive Scheme to back two high-impact drilling campaigns. The cash injection will help the company chase depth extensions to its high-grade Duketon gold system and test platinum group element horizons at the East Laverton project's Diorite Hill complex.
Great Southern Mining has armed its WA Duketon gold project near Laverton with fresh firepower after banking $4 million from Regis Resources for the sale of a mining licence, with another $5m potentially on the table. The cash injection will bankroll up to 15,000m of drilling this half, zeroing in on shallow, high-grade gold at its Golden Boulder and Amy Clarke prospects in Western Australia's rich Duketon belt.
Great Southern Mining has kicked off diamond drilling at its Edinburgh Park project in northern Queensland, with three deep holes planned at Leichhardt Creek. Backed by a $15 million Gold Fields Ltd JV, the campaign is targeting massive IP anomalies that mirror geological signatures seen at other nearby major gold-copper systems. With its Mt Dillon prospect up next, the drill bit could be edging closer to a major discovery.
Great Southern Mining has sold its Southern Star mining licence to Regis Resources in a savvy deal worth up to $9 million. The agreement, which also cements a strategic data alliance, delivers $4 million in immediate capital for exploration and brings both players closer together for new success across Western Australia's highly prospective Duketon Greenstone Belt.
The moment of truth is close for Great Southern Mining and Gold Fields Ltd, with the JV partners getting near to drilling a 2.4-km-wide porphyry anomaly in Queensland, unearthed by an IP geophysical survey that appears to scream “drill here”. The duo believe they may be onto a “chargeability anomaly” laden with sulphides housing a significant gold-copper deposit and will need the rods to start turning to prove up that theory.
Great Southern Mining has assayed 3m at 2.55g/t gold from 33m, including 1m at 6.48g/t gold, in the final results from a February RC drilling program at its Golden Boulder East trend at its Duketon project in WA. The hole included a separate 2m hit going 1.81g/t gold from 42m. A second hole probed 1m assaying 1.02g/t gold from 53m and 2m at 1.42g/t gold from 60m.
Great Southern Mining has jagged high-grade gold with an eye-opening intercept of 1 metre grading 70.94 grams per tonne gold within a 5m section of 14.57g/t gold from 41m at its Duketon gold project in WA's Eastern Goldfields. The company's 3678-metre reverse circulation drilling campaign to test earlier identified shallow mineralisation kicked off in January and is now complete.
Great Southern Mining and Gold Fields Limited have identified a second large-scale induced polarisation (IP) target at their Edinburgh Park gold and copper project in northern Queensland. The newly discovered Mt Dillon target follows a previous IP anomaly at Leichhardt Creek, located 10km northwest. The latest find reinforces the potential for significant mineralization within the jointly owned exploration area.
Great Southern Mining has kicked off an RC drilling campaign at its Duketon gold project, which spans 178 square kilometres within 13 virtually contiguous leases in Western Australia's Eastern Goldfields. The program has been designed to unlock the full potential of its promising Golden Boulder prospect which previously produced some impressive results before the rig is moved onto several other high-priority targets.
Gold Fields Ltd and a number of financial institutions in addition to management and directors of Great Southern Mining have all piled into a $2.5m capital raise that will see Great Southern fire up its WA gold search. $153,000 was committed to by Great Southern directors and management subject to shareholder approval at a general meeting early next year, in the placement priced at 1.7c.
Great Southern Mining and Gold Fields Ltd have found a huge, 2km-wide induced polarisation target, potentially a big porphyry gold-copper system, lurking at their Edinburgh Park project in Queensland. The buried structural geological feature is coincident with a grab bag of other exciting geological indicators including positive soil samples, rock chips going over 10 g/t gold and sulphides outcropping at surface.

Great Southern Mining says it will focus its Queensland exploration efforts on its Edinburgh Park gold project after signing a deal to offload its Palmer River site to Revolver Resources for a cool $1 million. The deal appears to be mutually beneficial for both companies with Great Southern enjoying a significant exploration cash boost whilst Revolver receives licences covering an area of 360 square kilometres adjacent to its flagship Dianne copper mine project in northern Queensland.
Great Southern Mining's aggressive exploration approach at its Southern Star prospect near Laverton appears to be paying off, reinforcing what the company says is shaping up to be a very sizeable gold deposit. The latest RC drilling program continues to return wide and shallow hits at the operation in WA's Goldfields region including one 69m intersection going 1.1 grams per tonne from 39m.
Great Southern Mining is ready to start drill testing at its wholly owned East Laverton nickel project in Western Australia's Goldfields region next month. The company has booked a diamond drill rig and reverse-circulation gear for its first drilling program to test the nickel-copper-PGE prospectivity of its Diorite Hill magmatic complex.
Great Southern Mining has locked down an initial term 21-year mining lease over its Southern Star prospect in the Duketon project area where drilling continues to progress with over 50 per cent of its 5,200-metre program now complete. Drilling quartz dolerites on strike with previous hits, the company expects assay results this month.
Great Southern Mining has been awarded a Western Australian Government Exploration Incentive Scheme grant for its East Laverton nickel project. The EIS grant will co-fund up to $220,000 for RC and diamond drilling of bedrock conductors prospective for massive and disseminated nickel sulphides. The two conductors identified from electromagnetic surveys present compelling targets for Nova/Bollinger nickel-copper and Voisey Bay nickel style deposits.
The first holes drilled into the Amy Clarke target in more than 25 years have yielded high-grade gold hits for Great Southern Mining from an air core drilling program at its Duketon Gold project, near Laverton in WA's Goldfields. Results included an intersection of 5 metres at 8.2 grams per tonne gold, including one metre at 33.5 g/t gold from 33m.
Gold and nickel explorer Great Southern Mining is bringing the drill back to its 100 per cent owned Duketon gold project to commence a 5000 metre RC program on the Southern Star orebody, where previous exploration yielded stunning results up to 56 g/t gold. The company is looking to focus on a southern extension of a lookalike magnetic high feature similar to the existing orebody.
Great Southern Mining is eyeing off WA's latest nickel discovery after a recently completed infill Fixed- Loop Electro-Magnetic survey at its wholly owned East Laverton project confirmed the presence of compelling bedrock conductors. According to the company, the two anomalies will be drill tested in the weeks ahead, with the larger kilometre-scale target the first in line.
Junior gold explorer Great Southern Mining says a two-hole probe of its Southern Star deposit has confirmed a significant mineralised system. The deposit forms part of the Duketon gold project about 45 kilometres north of Laverton in WA. The company says both diamond holes intersected a mineralised quartz dolerite unit and gold-bearing assemblages that could be part of a larger system.
Great Southern Mining is further investigating the size and extent of two bedrock conductors with a follow-up fixed-loop electromagnetic survey at its East Laverton project in Western Australia. The conductors eked out from the recent geophysical survey are considered highly prospective for massive nickel sulphide mineralisation. One identified anomaly spanned a massive 2km by 1km that the company says provides a “compelling drill target”.
Great Southern Mining has hit high grade gold at the Southern end of its Amy Clarke prospect in WA. Drilling intersections correlate with gold in soil anomalies and set the scene for a renewed hunt for grade at the Southern end of the prospect. The company says the fact that the high grade intersections were in bedrock suggests the source of the gold may be close by.
ASX-listed Great Southern Mining has the rods turning again with two 160m diamond holes at its Southern Star prospect designed to build on some previous stunning intercepts and increase its understanding of the deposit. Meanwhile, an oversubscribed capital raise of $1.6m before costs will help Great Southern fund further drilling in WA and Queensland.
Great Southern Mining has identified multiple bedrock anomalies considered prospective for nickel mineralisation in its recent electromagnetic survey at its East Laverton Nickel project in WA. One identified anomaly spanned a massive 2km by 1km and lined up with the edge of a regional gravity anomaly that Great Southern says provides further evidence of a potential blind nickel sulphide discovery.
Great Southern Mining is ploughing nearly 8,000 metres of aircore drilling into the Amy Clarke gold prospect within its Duketon tenements in Western Australia. Drilling is aimed at seeking out the source of a 4km long gold in soil anomaly that the company says exhibits uncanny similarities in size and tenor to Regis Resources nearby 2.1 million ounce Garden Well gold mine.
ASX-listed Great Southern Mining is looking to close the year on a high as it looks to follow up some intriguing gold sniffs at its 1,000 square kilometre Edinburgh Park project in north Queensland. The company's landholdings in the sunny state are within shouting distance of Evolution Mining's million-ounce-plus Mt Carlton gold-silver-copper mine.
Mineral exploration company, Great Southern Mining has commenced a moving loop electromagnetic survey that is looking to generate magmatic nickel sulphide drill targets across some 70 square kilometres of ground at its East Laverton nickel project in WA. The company believes the tenure to be prospective for hosting large nickel sulphide deposits geologically akin to several recent discoveries in WA, including the celebrated Nova-Bollinger discovery in the Fraser Range.
Great Southern Mining is rapidly scrubbing up its Southern Star gold deposit in WA after it intersected a best yet drill hit of 68 metres going 1.9 grams per tonne gold from just 61m in amongst a wealth of other high-grade hits at its Duketon project in WA. The impressive result backs up a previous 59m hit in a different hole grading 2.1 g/t gold.
Great Southern Mining experienced a Eureka moment after taking a chance and stepping out 200m from the existing gold deposit at its Duketon project in WA. The company hit a 17m intersection going 7 g/t gold from 11m in its latest campaign at Duketon. An even more impressive 1m at 109 g/t gold was contained within the 17m hit.
ASX-listed junior explorer Great Southern Mining has defined several large kilometre scale gold anomalies within its Duketon tenements in WA from regional soil sampling and will be drill testing at the Amy Clarke prospect by the end of the year. A geophysical magnetic low channel associated with the gold anomalies can be traced 3km north to Regis Resources' 322,000-ounce Erlistoun deposit grading 1.9 grams per tonne gold.
Gold explorer Great Southern Mining has picked up some solid gold hits from a regional drilling program that tested a quartet of prospects within its Duketon gold project about 45km north of Laverton in WA. The most notable of the latest drill intersections were 5m going 3.3 g/t from 49m including 1m at 12.3 g/t and 8m at 2.1 g/t gold from 32m including 4m at 3.7 g/t.
Great Southern Mining has uncovered another cluster of high-grade gold hits from the exciting Southern Star deposit at the ASX-listed company's Duketon gold project about 45 kilometres north of Laverton in WA. The pick of the latest batch of assays from its maiden RC drill program at Southern Star are 7m at 13.9 g/t gold from 123m including 1m at a bonanza 91.7 g/t.
Great Southern Mining has rattled the tin for $2.5 million that will largely be funnelled into exploration at its exciting Duketon gold project about 45km north of Laverton in WA's prolific north-eastern Goldfields. Last week the company reeled off a stellar 59m drill intersection grading 2.1 grams per tonne gold from 53m down hole at the project's Southern Star prospect.
