This then transitions through bismuth-tellurium and tungsten zones to cooler, shallower arsenic-dominant sections in the north.The anomaly zone has previously delivered some intriguing surface clues, with historical rock chips returning exceptional grades of 26.4g/t and 14.2g/t gold – enough to catch the attention of any self-respecting exploration geologist chasing the next gold shoot.Elsewhere across its tenure, Premier1 drilled three holes at its Central Block prospect, targeting previously untested electromagnetic anomalies and historical surficial gold workings identified during earlier surveys.Another three holes tested the company’s Carlisle prospect, following up a previous intersection of 10m grading a healthy 3.1g/t gold from 19m, including 7m at a stellar 4.3g/t.The final hole of the program was drilled at Crescent South, targeting the up-dip extension of a particularly eye-catching high-grade intercept from last year’s drilling. That earlier hit returned 3m at a gobsmacking 31.5g/t gold from 97 metres, featuring one spectacular metre running an eye-watering 91.9g/t gold.Samples from the new drilling blitz have been sent to the lab for assays, with the results eagerly anticipated.Getting the rig on the ground and completing drilling at Mt Kersey is a milestone for the company, especially following our recent 100% acquisition of the Yalgoo gold project. Premier1 executive director Simon PhillipsYalgoo sits in the Yalgoo-Singleton greenstone belt, sandwiched between major producers Ramelius Resources to the north and Capricorn Metals to the south. The town was founded in the 1890’s following the discovery of alluvial gold, and plenty of reminders of its wild gold rush days remain scattered throughout the area.The belt is recognised for hosting high-grade orogenic gold and base metals deposits. It sits along strike from ASX-listed 29Metals’ long-running Golden Grove operation and newer discoveries such as Capricorn Resources’ Golden Range gold-antimony project and its ultra-high-grade Deflector mine. Additionally, the area is also recognised historically for emeralds, topaz, bismuth and other gemstones.Premier1’s Wadgingarra prospect anchors the Yalgoo holding, hosting a 13,000-ounce near-surface resource where the high-grade gold starts at surface at site and remains open along strike and at depth.Despite limited modern drilling, with historical holes averaging just 46m and focused on oxide zones near old workings, early 2025 reverse circulation work delivered strong results, including bonanza hits at Crescent Carlisle – the two eastern flank prospects.Exploration manager Paul Smith said: “The EIS-funded program successfully intersected the key geological units and structures, including metasedimentary units and quartz dolerites. We are encouraged by initial observations from drill chips and logging.”With samples now at the laboratory and assays expected within four to six weeks, Premier1’s latest drill campaign has effectively opened the next chapter in its Yalgoo exploration story. Results could reveal whether the company is sitting on a broader gold system hidden beneath the Yalgoo greenstones.The company, however, is far from a one-trick pony. Its second major project – Abbotts North - lies up the road in perhaps one of WA’s most active gold regions, along the Meekathara-Murchison greenstone belt.If the results from the lab mirror recent drilling, Premier1’s expanding resources could soon be adding even more shine to the region and, importantly, to the company’s balance sheet.Is your ASX-listed company doing something interesting?
