Strickland Metals is pressing ahead with plans to spinoff its base metals assets into a new company to seek better value for the projects whilst focusing on its prospective gold package in central WA. The company has also gained heritage clearance to drill at its Iroquois project, which along with its Bryah Basin assets will be the centerpiece of the new operation.

Strickland Metals has locked onto further gold mineralisation with a round of diamond drilling at a recently discovered lode within the company's 603,000-ounce Yandal gold project in WA. With a standout intersection of 7.7m at 6.6 grams per tonne gold from 179m, Strickland's diamond work has confirmed its ‘Wanamaker' lode as a 300m long high-grade deposit that remains open at depth.

Strickland Metals has begun a native title heritage survey to gain clearance for further exploration around multiple high-priority prospects within the company's Yandal and Earaheedy projects near Wiluna in WA. The survey will include Strickland's recent Wanamaker discovery to the north of its Millrose project where the company has returned impressive results including 7m at 22.2 grams per tonne gold from 72m.

Strickland Metals is looking to demerge its non-core assets and deliver a standalone ASX base metals explorer as the company works to stack on gold ounces at its flagship project on WA's well-endowed Yandal greenstone belt north-east of Wiluna. The proposed spin-out will see the company's Iroquois zinc-lead and Bryah Basin assets packaged into a new wholly owned subsidiary that will seek to list on the ASX in the first quarter of 2023.

Strickland Metals has continued its hot-streak with more high-grade gold drill hits at the company's newly discovered Wanamaker deposit just north of its Millrose gold resource, 85km north-east of Wiluna in WA. The latest results from its ongoing drill program at the project include a standout strike of 5m going 14.5 grams per tonne gold from 67m downhole.

Strickland Metals is on a roll returning its best assay results to date from its recently discovered Wanamaker deposit in Western Australia serving up a 7m hit at an exciting 22.2 g/t gold. The latest assay result comes from drilling 50m north of where the initial Wanamaker discovery was made and extends the mineralisation footprint of the Millrose project to more than 3.2 kilometres.

Coincident copper, lead and zinc soil anomalies have defined a new set of targets for mineral explorer Strickland Metals at the company's Iroquois zinc-lead project in WA's Earaheedy Basin 100km north-west of Wiluna. The new targets lie west of the company's 2021 Iroquois discovery and Malecite prospect and come from a large soil geochemical program of 2510 samples.

Diamond drilling north of Strickland Metals' Millrose deposit near Wiluna has confirmed the presence of a new high-grade gold lode with plans underway to test for extensions to the north and at depth. The company says the new Wanamaker discovery was confirmed with an intercept 40m down dip from a previous intersection initially uncovered in July.

Explorer Strickland Metals has confirmed the presence of mineralised extensions beneath its existing Millrose resource near Wiluna in WA after completing a 130m step-out program at the site. The diamond probe nailed two high-grade intercepts running 5m at 5.3 grams per tonne gold from 239m and 5.9m grading 6.1 g/t gold from 258m. The hits sit inside a larger 38.2m parcel going 2.5 g/t from 234m.

As extensional drilling at Strickland Metals' cornerstone Millrose deposit continues to deliver shallow high-grade gold the company is gearing up for further work at its gold and base metal projects 70km east of Wiluna in WA's Mid West region. The latest oxide gold drill results coming out of Millrose include 28m at 3.7 grams per tonne gold from 54m containing a high-grade hit of 6m at 12.1 g/t.

Explorer Strickland Metals has uncovered a new significant oxide mineralisation zone with an initial pass of RC drilling at the company's Millrose gold project 80km north-east of Wiluna in WA. Results from the drilling extend mineralisation 350m north of Millrose's existing gold mineral resource of 346,000 ounces. Peak assay values included a 37m hit running 1.6 grams per tonne gold from 58m, containing a higher-grade interval of 9m at 5.6 g/t gold from 86m.

Strickland Metals has identified a new prospect at its Iroquois zinc-lead project in Earaheedy Basin near Wiluna in Western Australia after rock chip samples and a trial induced polarisation survey confirmed anomalies. Recent rock chip samples at the new Malecite prospect about 1.5km south-east of Iroquois returned peak results of 7.3 per cent lead, 0.5 per cent copper, 4.8 grams per tonne silver, 0.4 per cent zinc and 25 per cent manganese.

Strickland Metals has been named the manager of the Iroquois zinc-lead project in Western Australia's Earaheedy Basin after the company completed a formal joint venture agreement with Gibb River Diamonds. The new joint venture supersedes an historical option agreement from 2012. Strickland says a native title heritage survey will be requested for next month. The company is planning a 5000m drilling program with a further 5000m in the works, subject to positive results.

Strickland Metals has been given the green light to explore the main structure of its Millrose gold project near Wiluna after receiving heritage clearance from the Tarika Matuwa Piarku Aboriginal Corporation in addition to program of work approval from the West Australian Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety. The company can now focus on several high-priority areas along strike of the main 13km structure.

Latest assay results from RC drilling at Strickland Metals' Millrose project near Wiluna in WA have identified multiple new gold zones in addition to high-grade oxide gold intercepts. Highlights show one 5m intercept going 11.5 grams per tonne gold from 68m whilst a second 65m section from the same hole recorded 4.4 g/t from 95m including 3m at 20.2 g/t and another 3m reading an impressive 33.5 g/t gold.

Strickland Metals has received higher-than-expected assay results from recent diamond drilling at its Millrose gold project about 85km north-east of Wiluna in WA that suggest it is part of a very large gold system. Mineralisation at Millrose North is now defined over 300m whilst remaining open at depth and along strike.

As it looks to stack more gold on its 603,000-ounce Yandal project, 70km east of Wiluna, junior explorer Strickland Metals is gearing up to pass its fleet of drill rigs over its cornerstone Millrose gold system. In preparation for its drill out, the company has completed a heritage assessment and will start a magnetic survey as early as next week.

As its mammoth 23,000m RC and diamond program continues, ASX-listed gold junior Strickland Metals has confirmed surface laterite gold mineralisation directly above a northern section of its Millrose mineral resource at the company's broader Yandal gold project in WA. Among a broad array of holes probing the shallow mineralisation, standout intercepts include 5m at 3.6 g/t gold and 4m at 3 g/t.

Strickland Metals says it has an emerging large gold system at its Millrose project as the explorer continues to find gold aplenty. The first hole north of known resources returned 54m at 1.8 g/t gold from 130m including 23m grading 2.4 g/t gold. Drilling beneath existing resources returned 95.5m going at 2.0 g/t gold including a high-grade intercept of 8m at 14.6 g/t gold from 215m.

Strickland Metals is confident that its Millrose gold deposit in the Yandal Belt of WA is a "very substantial" gold system. Strickland has revealed a new drill intersection of 25m at 5.1 g/t gold from 82m that it says demonstrates continuity across a 200m strike with a previous result of 55m at 2.4 g/t gold from 86m. Millrose has a current resource of 346,000 ounces of gold.

Strickland Metals has unearthed significant initial gold results from its Millrose project in the Yandal greenstone belt within WA's Yilgarn Craton. A standout strike of 55m going 2.4 g/t gold from 86m was encountered in addition to visible gold in a diamond hole about 700m to the south. The explorer hails the results as outstanding and is growing confident Millrose is a substantial gold system.

Drilling at Strickland Metals' Iroquois discovery has returned high-grade zinc-lead results of 8m at 5.2 per cent zinc and 5m grading 10.1 per cent zinc-lead. The highest grade was contained in a broad zone giving 18m at 4.2 per cent combined zinc-lead. The company notes the discovery lies along strike from Rumble Resources' Earaheedy project.

Soil assays from Strickland Metals' Iroquois discovery show copper highs that map an interpreted feeder zone structure for zinc-lead mineralisation. The recent zinc-lead discovery is located on the western edge of the greater than 1.5km long feeder zone, creating excitement for the next round of drilling targeting the structure. Iroquois is in the Earaheedy Basin, WA's newest base metals hotspot.

Strickland Metals is hitting its Millrose gold project in WA hard with three drill rigs to remain on site for much of 2022. Drilling is currently focused on laterite hosted gold near surface and strike and depth extensions are key targets in a big push to add to the existing 603,000-ounce gold resource ahead of the development of a mining plan.

Strickland Metals' second-string Iroquois project in the northern goldfields is continuing to jostle attention away from its better addressed Yandal greenstone belt Strickland stablemates, the Horse Well and Millrose projects. Iroquois has been throwing up some impressive zinc hits to back up last year's initial discovery and it appears that Strickland now has yet another serious project on its books.

Strickland Metals has two RC drill rigs and one diamond core rig fired up at its Yandal project in WA. Both are expected to be on site for the duration of 2022 in a big push to add to the 603,000 ounce resource. The company believes there is significant potential to rapidly add to the existing gold resources at the project as it looks to emulate its neighbour, Northern Star's Jundee operations.

ASX-listed Strickland Metals has obtained heritage clearance from Tarlka Matuwa Piarku Aboriginal Corporation for almost all of its planned exploration throughout 2022. Obtaining heritage clearance was the final critical step towards commencing exploration at Yandal and for the planned resource extensional drilling at Millrose. A drill rig is ready to start this week.

ASX-listed explorer Strickland Metals has intersected a flurry of gold hits at its Dusk til Dawn prospect in WA that extends mineralisation down-dip following a series of successful strikes at the same prospect late last year. A remodelling of the current 108,900 gold ounce resource is now underway at the prospect where the company believes it will add substantial gold ounces to the resource base.

Aircore drilling by mineral exploration company, Strickland Metals has unearthed a hefty 1.3km long gold trend lying along strike to its multi-deposit Horse Well resource in Western Australia where about 129,000 ounces of contained gold have been defined. Stand out hits from the drilling include 8m at 3.3 grams per tonne gold from 40m that also takes in a higher grade 4m interval going 6.3 g/t gold.

Strickland Metals has nailed its first pass drilling campaign at its Dusk til Dawn prospect in WA with a stellar first up result of 33m going 3.6 g/t gold. Strickland believes the maiden drill results confirm its new mineralisation modelling that could potentially boost the 109,000 ounce gold resource discovered by previous owners. It says up to 20 lookalike targets have now also been identified nearby.

Strickland Metals has raised funds to support a resource expansion at its Yandal project in the Goldfields, with drilling scheduled to start in January.

Strickland Metals saw its share price surge by more than 60 per cent in intraday trading following discovery of broad, shallow and high-grade zinc and lead mineralisation in the Earaheedy Basin, directly along strike to Rumble Resources' celebrated Chinook zinc and lead discovery. The first two drill holes of an initial five-hole campaign at Strickland's Iroquois prospect returned thick mineralised hits, including 23m at 5.5 per cent zinc and lead.

Mineral explorer, Strickland Metals has secured a milestone 'Native Title Land Access and Mineral Exploration Agreement' with the Tarlka Matuwa Parku Aboriginal Corporation to cover the company's entire Yandal gold project tenure in WA. Strickland says the agreement will fast-track its exploration efforts at the project that already boasts a resource base of about 600,000 ounces of gold, taking in a touch under 2,000 square kilometres.

Junior explorer Strickland Metals says its recently acquired 346,000-ounce Millrose gold project on the north-eastern flank of the prolific gold-bearing Yandal-Millrose greenstone belt in WA provides an outstanding drill-ready opportunity to potentially grow its gold resource base in pursuit of possible early production in the region. The Perth-based company snapped up the project for $10 million from previous owners Millrose Gold Mines and Golden Eagle Mining.

Strickland Metals is hammering through a multitude of exploration programs with two rigs on site now at its flagship Yandal project. Promising zinc-lead assay results from a completed soil and rock chip sampling program at Iroquois, near Rumble Resource's famed zinc-lead discovery in the Earaheedy Basin, are also providing cause for pause. Additionally, Strickland has been undertaking a thorough review of the exploration potential around its Millrose mineral resource.

Strickland Metals has launched an aircore campaign at the Horse North prospect at its Horse Well gold project on the north-eastern flank of the Yandal-Millrose greenstone belt in WA's north-eastern Goldfields. The 10,000-metre drilling program will be focused largely on a three-kilometre section of the regional Celia shear zone that hosts the nearby resource for the multi-deposit Horse prospect of just over 148,000 ounces of gold.

Strickland Metals is set to kick off reverse circulation and aircore drilling programs this month at a keystone deposit and an emerging prospect at its Horse Well gold project in WA. The company says its recently launched gravity geophysical surveying work has turned up several “look-alike” targets near the anchor Dusk Til Dawn deposit that it intends probing with a round of RC drilling.

After locking in a couple of major project acquisitions that consolidate its foothold on the north-eastern flank of the Yandal-Millrose greenstone belt in WA's north-eastern Goldfields, Strickland Metals has cranked up a systematic initial exploration campaign across its expanded ground position. The company's current gravity survey and surface geochemical programs will pave the way for 100,000m of aircore drilling and 30,000m of reverse circulation drilling.

Strickland Metals has sewn up the acquisition of strategic ground-holdings abutting its flagship Horse Well gold project in WA that increases its footprint in the Yandal greenstone belt in the north-eastern Goldfields. The company completed the deal to purchase a 75 per cent stake in the Yandal East gold project tenements from Renegade Exploration for a consideration of 40 million new Strickland shares and $800,000 cash.
