INSIGHTS FROM THE EPISODE

Cracking Early Results at F1 Prospect in Yundamindra

  • Arika Resources has reported 4m @ 40g/t Au from the first holes drilled at the F1 Prospect, part of the company’s 10,000m campaign at the Yundamindra Gold Project near Laverton, WA.

'Yellow Brick Road' Corridor Hosts Multiple High-Grade Targets

  • The F1 Prospect sits within the‘Yellow Brick Road’, a 16km structural corridor with more than 10km of historical gold workings on multiple parallel structures—indicating scale and prospectivity across the project.

Follow-Up at Landed at Last and Pennyweight Point

  • Prior intercepts include 14m @ 3g/t Au at Landed at Last and 35m @ 2.5g/t Au at Pennyweight Point, with current drilling expanding on these zones to locate the project’s centre of gravity.

Over 50 High-Priority Targets Identified

  • Arika has mapped 50+ high-priority targets across Yundamindra using drone magnetics, soil sampling, and fieldwork—many of which remain completely untested by modern exploration.

Bonaparte and Syncline Prospects Next in Line

  • After F1, drilling moved to Bonaparte, followed by the nose of the Yundamindra Syncline, where historical dryblowing and anomalous rock chips hint at further gold-bearing structures beneath shallow cover.
