Further Visual Stibnite Confirmed Across Zopkhito Adit Drilling
- Underground drilling success: 16 of 18 adit core holes intersected visible antimony
- Surface drilling success: 12 of 15 completed diamond holes intersected visible antimony-rich veins
- Strategic extension: The option period for the Project has been extended by 12 months
Krakatoa Resources Ltd has announced that drilling at its Zopkhito Antimony-Gold Project in Georgia has intersected additional visible antimony mineralisation across both underground adit and surface diamond holes. The company has completed 18 underground in-adit core sampling holes, with 16 of the 18 holes recording visual antimony mineralisation. Additionally, 18 diamond holes for 2039m have been drilled from surface, with 15 reaching target depths and visual results indicating 12 intersecting antimony-rich veins. The company has also successfully secured a 12-month extension to the option period, providing the flexibility required to complete additional drilling for resource definition works as well as advance the transaction. Krakatoa's exploration program at Zopkhito is designed to transform the project's historical datasets into modern, JORC-compliant results, whilst simultaneously unlocking the project's full growth potential. The company is now positioned to deliver a steady sequence of updates throughout 2026, with initial laboratory results expected in late December 2025 - January 2026. These results will provide the foundation for Krakatoa's maiden JORC-compliant Mineral Resource Estimate, a milestone that will validate Zopkhito's scale and grade potential.
Krakatoa is entering a pivotal phase at Zopkhito, with drilling scheduled to recommence in Q2 2026, targeting extensions of known mineralisation and veins between adits and into new zones. The additional drilling and assay data will underpin Krakatoa's first JORC Resource, strengthening confidence in Zopkhito's high-grade antimony and gold systems.
