• High grade mineralisation discovered at YT01 prospect, extending to over 900m
• Significant copper and gold results from Marcus and Hillside prospects
• Hillside confirmed as a genuine gold prospect with strong alteration

Empire Resources has received assay results from the final 27 holes of a 42-hole, 1,828m aircore drilling program at its Yuinmery Copper-Gold Project. The program focused on the YT01, Marcus, Hillside, and Lorne prospects. At YT01, the drilling successfully followed up on high-grade mineralisation discovered in June, extending the strike length to over 900m. Significant results include 17m @ 0.47% Cu & 0.12g/t Au from 8m and 8m @ 0.60% Cu & 0.05g/t Au from 16m. At the Marcus prospect, the drilling confirmed a newly proposed copper mineralisation model, with results of 10m @ 0.38% Cu from surface and 10m @ 0.34% Cu from 18m. The Hillside prospect was validated, with the drilling confirming anomalous gold mineralisation, including 8m @ 0.50g/t Au from 20m and 8m @ 0.31g/t Au from 12m. The company notes the strong alteration observed at Hillside, typical of the Murchison goldfields, confirming the regional gold prospectivity. At the Lorne prospect, the drilling intersected 33m @ 0.23% Cu from surface. The company plans to follow up on these results with further resource and exploration drilling in 2026.
