Full Summary

BPM Minerals Ltd (ASX: BPM) is pleased to advise that RC drilling is now underway at the Beachcomber Prospect within its Forelands Gold Project in Western Australia. The 7,500m RC drill program is designed to test the down-dip and down-plunge extensions of the high-grade Beachcomber main lode, as well as several nearby targets generated from recent geochemical work. These include the 700m-long Beachcomber NW target, the Beachcomber Central and Beachcomber Fault anomalies. Drilling is expected to continue over the coming 4-6 weeks, with assay results to be reported as they are received, targeting May 2026. At the Bonnie & Clyde Prospect, the company has scheduled the heritage survey for 28-29 March 2026 with members of the Upurli Nguratja Aboriginal Corporation. This is a key step in advancing the prospect towards maiden drilling, which the company continues to target for Q3 2026, subject to approvals. The company has also planned an airborne magnetic survey to commence in early April, which will provide high-quality data for geological and structural interpretation, target generation and drill planning across the key prospects at Forelands.

Outlook

The company is continuing to build momentum across the Forelands Gold Project, with drilling underway at Beachcomber and key approvals progressing at Bonnie & Clyde. The airborne magnetic survey will also provide valuable data to support target generation and drill planning across the project.
