What they said: "We are confident in the long-term critical role gas will play across Australia," said APA's CEO and managing director Adam Watson.

"Our East Coast Gas Grid Expansion Plan, early works in the Beetaloo, opportunities in gas-powered generation and ongoing growth in remote power generation in the Pilbara, demonstrate how we expect our core business will underpin our growth for years to come."

Drilling Innovations Unleash Australia’s Beetaloo Potential

Australian operators are adopting a factory drilling model, drawing lessons from U.S. shale plays like the Permian Basin.

Tue, 08/19/2025

As the Australian government seeks to diversify its energy sources, the Beetaloo Basin in the Northern Territory presents a significant opportunity.

With an estimated 500 Tcf of gas—more than 1,000 times the country’s annual consumption—this resource-rich shale formation has the potential to secure long-term domestic supply and elevate Australia as a global leader in LNG exports.

Unlocking these vast reserves will demand overcoming complex drilling and logistical hurdles, but success

What a comeback

Australian Energy Producers are set to recommend the introduction of a prospective gas reservation policy as part of a comprehensive strategy aimed at bolstering domestic gas supply and providing greater certainty for both producers and users.

This proposal will form a key component of the organisation’s submission to the Gas Market Review, with the aim of shifting Australia’s gas sector away from a pattern of temporary fixes and market interventions toward long-term, sustainable solutions.

-

McCulloch argued that a well-designed, prospective reservation policy — connected to newly developed supply — could support a more competitive and resilient domestic market, but stressed that such a policy must be backed by meaningful action to address immediate supply pressures.

“This should include reforms to encourage more investment, streamline approvals, remove reporting duplication, and facilitate expanded gas pipeline and storage capacity,” said McCulloch.

Australian Energy Producers also recommend launching a sustainable exploration program, fast-tracking “development ready” gas supply, increasing pipeline and storage capacity, and streamlining project approvals.

''SolGold shares soar on gold exploration results

The new brooms at copper struggler SolGold (SOLG) have managed to get its share price out of the doldrums through new exploration work. Chief executive Dan Vujcic and chair Paul Smith took over in March after years of questions over its potential, with the promising copper project Cascabel discounted because of SolGold’s locked-up share register and deals inked to forward-sell stakes in production from the mine.

The company’s shares climbed a quarter on Friday on the release of assay results from drilling at the Tandayama deposit in Ecuador, which is 3km from the edge of the principal Cascabel deposit. SolGold said the results point to “strong potential” for an open pit that would supplement ore from the Cascabel underground mine.

Vujcic said before the drilling programme started that Tandayama could be used to bring production forward at Cascabel, with open pit mines quicker to build than underground operations. The company’s shares have doubled in the past month, to 14.5p, and it last traded at this level in September 2023. AH ''

SolGold (SOLG LN) 14.58p, Mkt Cap £431m – Potential for near-surface copper starter pit at Tandayama América draws closer to reality

SolGold report the discovery of copper at Tandayama América in Ecuador startging at just 8m below surface.

The results show a substantial intercept of:

140m grading @ 0.92% CuEq from 8m, inc. 106m @ 1.10% CuEq from 22m in drill hole TAD-58

The discovery is important as it could lead to the delineation of a starter pit to accelerate cash flow and justify the construction of infrastructure and a process plant well ahead of the completion of the much larger and deeper Cascabel copper project.

Mineralisation is reported to remain open at depth

“Integration with Alpala underground development remains central to SolGold’s staged production plan”

The Tandayama-Ameríca prospect should help de-risk and kickstart the development of Cascabel

TAD-25-058 (Pit 2):

140 m @ 0.92 % CuEq (0.41 % Cu, 0.59 g/t Au) from 8 m, inc. 106 m @ 1.10 % CuEq from 22 m

Plus 50 m @ 0.49 % CuEq from 250 m; mineralisation open at depth

TAD-25-055 (Pit 2): from same collar as hole 58 and is seen as an extension of the mineralisation seen in hole 58

58 m @ 0.29 % CuEq (0.17 % Cu, 0.14 g/t Au) from 6 m, including

6 m @ 0.33 % CuEq (0.18 % Cu, 0.18 g/t Au) from 6m,

24 m @0.36 % CuEq (0.21 % Cu, 0.17 g/t Au) from 40

TAD-25-056 (Pit 1):

280 m @ 0.32 % CuEq (0.21 % Cu, 0.13 g/t Au)

Oher completed holes: Assays pending

TAD-57,

TAD-59,

TAD-60,

TAD-61

Drilling is focusing on the potential development of a resource which is sufficient in scale and shape to justify an open cast operation close to the much larger proposed Cascabel mine site.

Tandayama remains entirely conceptual as an open-pit with just 10 holes (3,398m) drilled.

Assays from four holes are pending with another eight holes (1,869m) planned.

Conclusion: We have always said the future of the Cascabel mine depends on the discovery of a near-surface starter pit in the Cascabel area. While this is equivocally proven as yet, this concept is drawing closer to reality on successive assays.

Is the cut-off grade acceptable for open pit? No expert in such matters. I've seen cut-off copper grades down at .2%, even lower.

Reports Exceptional Near-Surface Copper-Gold

Intercepts at Tandayama América

· Hole TAD-58 delivers the strongest near-surface intervals to date at Tandayama and the Cascabel Project, intersecting 140 m @ 0.92 % CuEq from 8 m, including 106 m @ 1.10 % CuEq from 22 m

· Results continue to confirm the strong potential for a low-capex, near-surface open-pit starter operation to accelerate early cash flow at Cascabel

· Mineralisation remains open at depth, with further drilling planned to expand the resource

· Geological interpretations and geochemistry point to further extensions and targets

· Integration with Alpala underground development remains central to SolGold's staged production plan

More good news. Green freaks now far less likely to harass Beetaloo focused gas companies after this judgement

The Cascabel mining project, considered the largest copper mine in Ecuador in the future, plans to relocate the community of Santa Cecilia, located in the Lita parish of Imbabura province. This was confirmed by María Amparo Albán, president of SolGold Ecuador, the company in charge of the concession.

The measure is due to the fact that the community is located in the center of the mining area, and according to the company, remaining there would be directly affected by the construction and operation of the mine. Albán indicated that the process will follow the World Bank's (IFC) international standards, which recommend resettlement when there are risks to the safety and quality of life of the inhabitants.
