Nothing new there! Socialists fishing to see possible ways that they can maybe take more money from successful businesses.

IMHO, it looks like a bit of typical Friday FOMO setting in, especially with the expected Darlot West first batch of assays from Intertek Laboratories, due to drop imminently now. As always, many will wait, but then discover, if positive, that with a rapid rise, due to limited free float, they can't get in, or back in. IMHO, I expect them to be good as we've already had samples recovered from there up to 28.62g/t Au.

I've never known a company, for years now, better at churning out RNS's, with pretty pictures, and nothing much more than fluff., along with numerous 'pump & dumps'. It looks like just another one today too! I'll maybe take notice if they actually have some positive assays, but, at this time, there is nothing of substance yet, despite a load of waffle. That said, it's good for the traders, if they time it right.

Hi Montyfino/Element This is the presentation I posted a few days ago...

Here is the Newcrest Mining presentation from back in 2009 at the 'International Tungsten Industry Association' Annual Conference, which is naturally, essentially about O'Callaghan's:

I see that Charles Archer is thinking along the same lines....

"With tungsten rocketing, I'd be very surprised if Shaun isn't actively being approached by various players."

"It's been assigned an enterprise value of zero currently. Funny reading this piece back..."

23 March 2025, transcript from one of my interviews with SD:

'Yeah, yeah, look, I… look, it is something I’ve spent a little bit of time thinking about. Callaghan's is interesting for a number of reasons. It’s interesting because it is the world’s largest tungsten deposit outside of China, and I believe it’s also the highest grade. China has weaponized tungsten, so clearly a deposit in the West has particular strategic and economic interest right now. In addition, although it’s being explored, there’s actually a really significant geophysical confluence of magnetic and gravity anomalies under O'Callaghans. What’s been drilled so far doesn’t explain that anomaly—just a mere fraction of it—so I think that’s really exciting as well.

We really want to understand that deposit better, and understand how we can create value for Greatland shareholders—not necessarily by Greatland developing it, although that is a pathway—but certainly exploring business opportunities to unlock value there, because it is an interesting asset. We are taking the drill rigs in the Paterson region from two to four to six, and potentially more. So we’re tripling the number of rigs, but also increasing regional exploration, which I count as part of Callaghan's. I think you’ll see us increase activity now that we’re generating free cash flow; we can invest in the drill bit, and I think that’s exciting. Callaghan's is one of those opportunities, which is very exciting.'

A piece by the well respected Alastair Ford yesterday about Copper, which bodes well for us, because of the historical drilling at the Paterson Project, which had significant Copper intersects, and is also close to Greatland:

"There are several that look well positioned to benefit from the resurgence of copper. The obvious point of departure are other well-known producers, like Atalaya, Sandfire, and Greatland. Yes, Greatland’s primarily a gold company, but it also has plenty of copper, and offers a timely reminder that the stars really are aligning for some producers because copper is often associated with gold.

But if things really turn bullish – and they might – the real upside is likely to be delivered by the explorers. Two dynamics will be at work. First, delivering up new primary assets in a rising market will in and of itself be rewarded by investors. Second, the major producers, who in recent decades have by and large preferred to outsource exploration to juniors, will gobble up any significant discovery they can find. The tussle over New World Resources that we witnessed earlier this year may only be the start.

Still, big copper discoveries are a comparative rarity. Who might deliver one?.."

Correction...Q3 CY25 (Q1 FY26)

Indeed Rotherby, and hopefully we'll be hearing about some recent ones imminently now, either in the Q3 CY25 (Q1 FY25) full report, or even separately. I don't think I need AI to know that they're going to be good too!

Miners embrace AI as gold prices hit record highs

Some gold miners are looking to use high prices to reinvest in mine life extensions and process efficiency rather than chasing pure output growth.

reatland Resources is deploying AI tools to uncover new opportunities to extend the life of one of Australia’s oldest gold projects, as miners seek to leverage record-high commodity prices to secure long-term profitability.

After acquiring the Telfer project — located in the Pilbara, Western Australia, and first producing gold in 1977 — in December 2024, Greatland Resources managing director Shaun Day said AI is enabling the identification of “ore bodies hiding within existing drill data”.

Speaking on a panel at the Citi Australia & New Zealand Investment Conference 2025, Day said the technology is helping “order and search” the “ginormous drill database”. This is supporting 240,000 metres of planned drilling at Telfer this year, which he said is the most in the project’s history.

He also noted that the industry will increasingly rely on more advanced geophysical techniques because “you’re not going to find major deposits expression at the surface in Australia anymore, it’s been picked over”...

Copper Price Forecast: Will Prices Hit $12,000 Per Tonne in 2025?

The copper market is approaching a critical juncture as prices hover near record territory in October 2025. Currently trading around $10,900 per ton, copper has demonstrated remarkable resilience despite global economic uncertainties, gaining over 15% year-over-year. This comprehensive analysis examines whether copper will break through to new all-time highs in the coming months, potentially reaching the $12,000 per ton threshold that leading industry experts are forecasting....

https://discoveryalert.com.au/news/copper-price-forecast-2025-2026-record-highs/

Great news for our 'Paterson Project' where there were significant Copper drilling intercepts including:

o 17m @ 1.6% Cu, 317ppm Mo from 84m (87WDRC2)

▪ Including 9m @ 2.6% Cu, 456ppm Mo

o 9m @ 2.0% Cu, 0.14g/t Au, 272ppm Mo from 84m (87WDRC6)

▪ Including 5m @3.1% Cu, 0.20g/t Au, 430ppm Mo

o 11m @ 1.5% Cu, 0.10g/t Au, 181ppm Mo from 83m (87WDRC8)

▪ Including 7m @ 2.1% Cu, 0.15g/t Au, 250ppm Mo

o 13m @ 1.1% Cu, 0.29g/t Au from 107m (87WDRC14)

▪ Including 6m @ 2.0% Cu, 0.27g/t Au

o 8m @ 0.7% Cu, 310ppm Mo from 98m (87WDRC7)

▪ Including 1m @ 3.3% Cu, 0.22g/t Au, 560ppm Mo

As I've posted before, these are all shallow, which means that RC drilling can be used, initially at least, not diamond drilling. Compare to WSBN, where they're still waiting for something positive, and where, from all indications, they'll need to drill very deep with diamond drilling to get to anything even remotely commercial, if at all.

Personally, it's 'The Paterson Project' which I like the look of, especially from the old, but significant, copper drilling intercepts. What's very important is that they're all relatively shallow and can be targeted pretty easily using just RC drilling. This makes it both much cheaper, initially at least, to explore now, but also, should it come to it, to develop further. If you compare that with the likes of WSBN, also exploring & drilling in the area, they are requiring diamond drilling, at significantly more depth, and, as a result, higher cost. That also, if it ever comes to it, makes CDL Paterson much cheaper to develop. Mind you, that's all in the future, but, with the very limited free float, and potential, although high risk, this is definitely one to hold for me.

Also, of course, I'm looking forward to the imminent assay results from Intertek, of the samples collected from Darlot West, and to see how that develops.

Hi gymboy! This is a hoax and has been doing the rounds for years. I remember it from at least a couple of years ago.

In September 2025, global equities were mixed: the S&P 500 rose 3.5% on a mid-month Fed cut and lower yields, and Japan’s Nikkei outperformed (+5.2%) on a weaker yen and buybacks, while the FTSE 100 gained 1.8% and Australia’s All Ordinaries slipped 1.2%.

Gold has continued climbing, extending its record highs once again in September a trend continuing at the time of writing this. Of the six companies specifically mentioned in this edition, five are gold focussed....

...Gold led commodities in September 2025, surging to successive all-time highs and finishing the month near US$3,800/oz. The rally was driven by lower real yields after the US Fed’s 25 bp cut on 17 September, a softer USD, and ongoing central-bank buying, with safe-haven demand elevated into October...

GREATLAND RESOURCES LIMITED (ASX:GGP): Greatland Resources’ market capitalisation appreciated significantly, with a key catalyst being S&P Dow Jones Indices’ September quarterly rebalance, which saw GGP added not only to the All Ordinaries but also to the S&P/ASX 200 effective 22 September 2025, driving higher visibility and ETF fund flows. Active engagement with investors, including Diggers and Dealers in Kalgoorlie and the Mining Forum Americas Conference in Denver (“Denver Gold Forum”), highlighted Greatland’s transformation into a leading Australian gold–copper producer following its ASX listing in June 2025 and the earlier acquisition of the Telfer mine and consolidation of the Havieron project in mid FY25. This all helped to underpin the September re-rating for the index inclusions.
