Full summary
PLC Resources Limited (ASX:PLC) is set to commence follow-up Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling at the Rochefort Gold Prospect on 11 September 2026, following promising results from its maiden reconnaissance drilling program. The maiden program intersected anomalous gold (up to 0.4 g/t Au) within highly fractionated dolerite, a host rock setting associated with significant Yilgarn gold deposits. The follow-up drilling aims to test for a potential larger gold mineralised system interpreted to lie beyond the margin of the maiden drill pattern. Additionally, a high-resolution airborne survey has identified a new, entirely untested, regional structural corridor along a large fold (syncline) system on the eastern margin of the Abbotts Greenstone Belt, extending along strike toward New Murchison Gold's (ASX: NMG) Garden Gully Gold Project.
