Soil sampling defines multiple drill targets at Beachcomber
- Soil sampling identifies multiple significant, untested gold-in-soil anomalies at Beachcomber, Ambrosia, Sidecar and Brass Monkey prospects
- Beachcomber NW anomaly - a coherent, 700 m-long, >100 ppb Au anomaly that is largely untested by drilling
- Newly identified soil anomalies, in addition to high-grade extensions of the main Beachcomber Lode, to be targeted in upcoming drilling
BPM Minerals Ltd (ASX: BPM) has reported the results of soil sampling programs at the Beachcomber, Ambrosia, Sidecar and Brass Monley Prospects, part of the Forelands Gold Project in Western Australia. The soil sampling has identified multiple significant, untested gold-in-soil anomalies, highlighting potential for further high-grade Beachcomber-style gold mineralisation. Sampling at the broader Beachcomber prospect has defined several exciting anomalies, including Beachcomber NW - a coherent, 700 m-long, >100 ppb Au anomaly that is largely untested by drilling. BPM is fully permitted and scheduled to recommence RC drilling at Beachcomber in early March 2026, targeting the newly identified soil anomalies in addition to the high-grade extensions of the main Beachcomber Lode. Further soil anomalies have also been identified at the Ambrosia, Sidecar and Brass Monkey prospects, with heritage surveys planned over the coming months in preparation for drill testing later in the year. The Company's recent drilling at the Beachcomber main lode intersected quartz vein hosted, high-grade gold mineralisation over a 180 m strike length, with mineralisation remaining open to the south and down dip. Key intercepts include 9 m at 7.77 g/t Au, 6 m at 6.72 g/t Au, and 2 m at 12.33 g/t Au.
