Southern Cross Gold Extends Mineralization to 600 Metres Depth with Multiple High-Grade Intersections at Christina
Newsfile· 2025-07-24 10:00
Core Insights - Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd has reported significant drilling results from the Christina prospect, extending mineralization to a depth of 600 meters with multiple high-grade intersections, including 2.9 m at 16.3 g/t Au and 2.5 m at 17.6 g/t Au [2][4][7]. Group 1: High-Grade Intersections - Drill hole SDDSC173 intersected visible gold in four separate locations, with grades reaching up to 58.0 g/t gold over 0.6 m, and multiple high-grade intervals including 2.9 m at 14.4 g/t gold equivalent [7][11]. - The gold-bearing corridor now extends 1.5 km from Apollo East to Christina West, with intersections including 7.1 m at 5.2 g/t gold equivalent, containing higher grades up to 74.8 g/t gold [7][14]. - The deepest high-grade gold intersections at Christina reached 926 meters depth, proving mineralization extends much deeper and further west than previously defined [7][11]. Group 2: Geological Continuity and Expansion - The results validate the geological model and confirm the robust vertical extent of the Sunday Creek system, with systematic infill drilling discovering additional vein sets beyond original interpretations [4][5]. - Multiple high-grade gold zones have been discovered well outside the current exploration area, indicating the deposit continues to grow beyond original geological interpretations [7][11]. - The drilling program is advancing with 33 holes currently pending assay results, indicating ongoing exploration potential [15]. Group 3: Strategic Importance of Antimony - Sunday Creek is positioned as one of the Western world's significant gold-antimony discoveries, with antimony contributing approximately 21% to 24% of the in situ recoverable value [26][32]. - The recent Chinese government announcement to place export limits on antimony products could positively impact Southern Cross Gold, as it may become one of the few large, high-quality antimony projects in the Western world [28][32]. - The dual-metal profile of Sunday Creek enhances its strategic value, especially in light of increasing demand for antimony in defense and semiconductor applications [32][33].
RUA GOLD Expands High-Grade Intercepts at Depth at Auld Creek: 5.9g/t AuEq over 9m and 48.3g/t AuEq over 1.25m

RUA GOLD Expands High-Grade Intercepts at Depth at Auld Creek: 5.9g/t AuEq over 9m and 48.3g/t AuEq over 1.25m Note that AuEq amounts have been calculated using recent spot prices of gold and antimony and applying a ~30% discount. The gold equivalent formula is based on AuEq = Au g/t + 4.3 x Sb% using a Au price of US$2065/oz, Sb price of US$34,300 per tonne and 85% recovery. Figure 1: Overview of the Reefton Goldfield.
