Kairos Minerals to Drill Maiden Gold Resource at Roe Hills Project in Western Australia

Kairos Minerals is set to begin a 3,000-metre RC drilling program at its Roe Hills Project in Western Australia. The program will focus on the Terra and Caliburn prospects, which have strong potential for a maiden resource estimate in 2026. Previous drilling at Terra returned strong results, including 11 metres at 2.59 g/t gold and 35 metres at 1.00 g/t gold. The Caliburn prospect has mineralisation defined by RC drilling extending over 200 metres and remains open in most directions.

Greta Minerals Pte Ltd, a subsidiary of Singapore-based Greta Group, has announced a significant expansion of its exploration footprint in Western Australia. The company has nearly doubled its landholding, increasing its area from approximately 700 sq km to 1,550 sq km. This expansion is part of Greta Minerals' strategy to secure a stable and prolific lithium supply chain for India, which is accelerating its push towards electric mobility and renewable energy storage Greta Minerals Expands Western Australia Footprint, Targets Lithium Supply Chain for India^[1].

The expansion follows encouraging results from initial Ultrafine+ soil sampling and analysis at the Gecko North site. This advanced soil sampling technique, developed by CSIRO and Labwest Minerals Analysis Pty Ltd, detected deeper ore bodies by analyzing ultrafine clay particles. The technique identified three lithium anomalies, one caesium anomaly, and three gold anomalies within the Gecko North project Greta Minerals Expands Western Australia Footprint, Targets Lithium Supply Chain for India^[1].

Greta Minerals believes its projects in Western Australia can contribute to bridging India's lithium supply gap. The company's exploration efforts are aligned with the growing global demand for critical minerals, and its strong foothold in Western Australia positions it well to be part of India's lithium supply chain Greta Minerals Expands Western Australia Footprint, Targets Lithium Supply Chain for India^[1].

Kairos Minerals, another player in the Western Australian mining sector, has also announced plans to begin a 3,000-metre RC drilling program at its Roe Hills Project. The program will focus on the Terra and Caliburn prospects, which have strong potential for a maiden resource estimate in 2026. Previous drilling at Terra returned strong results, including 11 metres at 2.59 g/t gold and 35 metres at 1.00 g/t gold. The Caliburn prospect has mineralisation defined by RC drilling extending over 200 metres and remains open in most directions .

These developments highlight the growing interest in critical minerals and the potential of Western Australia as a stable and prolific mining region. As India targets 30% electric vehicle adoption by 2030, securing a reliable lithium supply will be key to powering EV adoption and grid-scale batteries. Greta Minerals and Kairos Minerals are well-positioned to contribute to this goal Greta Minerals Expands Western Australia Footprint, Targets Lithium Supply Chain for India^[1].
