Austral Resources strikes high-grade copper at Snow Queen prospect. The ASX-listed miner intercepted 10 metres at 7.52% copper, including a standout 4-metre section grading 15.98% copper from drilling at Cameron River in Queensland. The discovery reinforces the company's exploration strategy within its landholding of 35 historical copper workings. A coherent copper soil anomaly extending over 400 metres remains open for expansion. The results support Austral's targeting model and demonstrate the prospectivity of a broader mineralised corridor. The company plans to recommence regional drilling later this year to test additional targets. Snow Queen's proximity to Austral's Rocklands copper processing facility positions it as a potential source of mineable inventory ahead of the facility's strategic restart scheduled for mid-2027.
