INSIGHTS FROM THE EPISODE
- Leeuwin Metals accelerates Marda Gold Project exploration
Since acquiring the Marda Gold Project from Ramelius Resources just four months ago, Leeuwin Metals (ASX: LM1) has completed two drilling programs totalling 5,000m, extensive mapping, and new target generation across the Southern Cross Greenstone Belt in Western Australia. - Strong brownfields results confirm growth potential
Drilling beneath existing pits at Marda has intersected significant gold zones, including 20m+ at 1–1.5g/t Au, 8m at ~3g/t Au, and 5m at 5g/t Au, demonstrating continuity at depth and substantial scope for resource growth. - High-grade opportunity at Evanston Prospect
Leeuwin is preparing to drill the Evanston Prospect—a shallow, high-grade gold system last drilled over 20 years ago—where rock chip samples have returned assays up to 28g/t Au in quartz veins, with visible gold observed on site. - Dual growth strategy across 500km² of tenure
With over 500km² of granted tenure, Leeuwin is pursuing a two-pronged approach: expanding known mineralisation around historical pits and advancing underexplored greenfields targets with potential for repeat high-grade discoveries. - Resource estimate expected by year-end
An updated Mineral Resource Estimate for Marda—incorporating historic drilling and recent Leeuwin results—is on track for release by the end of 2025, a milestone that could significantly re-rate the company’s ~$15M market capitalisation.
