RE: Rns out..... Strong results on BM12 Dec 2025 07:29
ECR Minerals plc (AIM: ECR), the exploration and development company focused on gold in Australia, is pleased to report a highly encouraging set of alluvial drilling results from its Blue Mountain Project ("Blue Mountain") in Central Queensland. These drilling results continue to strengthen the case for near-term, low-cost alluvial gold production, with the drilling results confirming visible coarse gold and the expansion of multiple unmined gold-bearing creek flats.
Highlights
· Visible coarse gold recorded in multiple drill samples from the newly identified Upper Kariboe Creek alluvial flat.
· Continuity of mineralisation now mapped across approximately 250 metres of strike, with widths ranging from 6 to 35 metres.
· Grades exceeding the 0.15 g/b.c.m cut-off returned via 19 intersections, including standout results up to 6.52 g/b.c.m, typically indicating the presence of nuggety near-source gold.
· Wash-plant trial work at the Lower Patterson area continues to demonstrate practical mining grades averaging 0.35g/b.c.m, considered favourable to grades in operating alluvial mines across North Queensland.
· Multiple areas now identified as potential start-up gold production zones, including Lower Patterson, Upper Kariboe, Windmill and Roan Colt.
