Platina Resources Ltd. has outlined its fully-funded 2026 gold exploration strategy, focused on drilling and discovery across its Western Australia gold portfolio.
The company’s drilling plans will largely concentrate on the Laverton gold district, which hosts Platina’s Mt McKenna, Sunrise Bore and Mt Morgans South projects.
Platina will conduct more than 20,000 metres of aircore and reverse circulation (RC) drilling in 2026, primarily in the first half of the year.
The drilling programs will be sequenced to maintain continuous activity, allow for synergies in execution, and steady news flows as they progress.
Platina Managing Director Corey Nolan said: “Platina enters 2026 with a clear, disciplined strategy and the financial capacity to drive multiple well-sequenced exploration campaigns concurrently across its high-quality gold portfolio in the prolific Laverton gold district.
“Our strategy is underpinned by a strong balance sheet, with approximately AU$11 million in cash, enabling full execution without compromise or near-term equity dilution and provide Platina with a level of funding strength to execute a material scope of follow up programs as identified during the execution of this 2026 exploration program.”
The Laverton gold region hosts multiple world-class mines and gold deposits and is supported by the Laverton township, which provides a well-established hub for operations.
Platina will prioritise back-to-back drilling programs at Mt McKenna, planned to commence in early 2026 and targeting multiple exploration zones.
The company will then focus on resource definition RC drilling at Sunrise Bore following the grant of the tenement, targeting a highly prospective gold system.
Platina will explore and start drilling activities at Mt Morgans South following the completion of the transaction.
At Beete, the company will commence exploration later in 2026.
