Atomic Eagle has announced a development path for its Muntanga Uranium Project in Zambia, targeting production by 2031. The plan includes a 30,000-meter drill program through 2026, a JORC resource update in early 2027, and financing in 2028.
Shuka Minerals reported high-grade zinc drilling results from its Kabwe project in Zambia, including significant intercepts at the newly identified Sperm Whale target. The results include zinc grades as high as 49.7% and are expected to potentially increase the project's historical mineral resources by at least 50%.
Prospect Resources Limited announced high-grade copper intercepts from infill drilling at Nyungu Central, including 10m at 1.10% Cu and 5.68m at 1.51% Cu, confirming continuity and strengthening confidence in the deposit. Regional exploration identified two significant copper anomalies at Shikezi, with the larger extending over 1km. Metallurgical testwork on Nyungu Central and Kabikupa composites returned excellent copper recoveries, supporting the Mumbezhi Copper Project's advancement towards a Scoping Study in Q1 2027.
Tertiary Minerals plans to conduct up to 1,000 metres of diamond drilling at its Mushima North project in Zambia to test for a deeper, higher-grade sulphide deposit. The campaign follows recent high-grade silver-equivalent intercepts and aims to expand on the existing exploration target. Drilling is expected to begin after a shareholder meeting on 28 October, pending approval of a recent £1 million placement.
Tertiary Minerals plc has announced a planned 1,000m diamond drill programme at the Mushima North Project in Zambia to test for mineralisation depth and primary sulphide potential. The programme follows a successful £1,000,000 capital raise and aims to extend the known Discovery Zone. A Mineral Resource Estimate is expected by the end of the year.
Prospect Resources presented an update on the Mumbezhi Copper Project, highlighting a growing Mineral Resource Estimate of 208.1Mt at 0.42% Cu (0.49% CuEq). The company also disclosed strong metallurgical recovery results for the Nyungu Central and Kabikupa domains.
Atomic Eagle has completed metallurgical test work on the Muntanga East uranium deposit in Zambia, reporting uranium recoveries between 81% and 86% via bottle roll and column leach tests. The tests demonstrated low acid consumption and favorable physical characteristics for heap leach processing, supporting the economic viability of lower-grade material.
Atomic Eagle has announced successful metallurgical testwork for the Muntanga East uranium deposit in Zambia. The results demonstrated strong uranium recoveries of 81-86% using heap leach methods with exceptionally low acid consumption.
Prospect Resources announced high-grade copper drill results from infill and extensional drilling at its Nyungu Central deposit within the Mumbezhi Copper Project in Zambia. Highlights include 18m at 1.31% Cu from 148m and 7.39m at 1.11% Cu from 100.6m, with significant cobalt and gold credits. Extensional drilling also returned wide, high-grade intercepts outside the current Mineral Resource estimate, indicating potential for further resource growth, complemented by excellent metallurgical recoveries.
Prospect Resources' annual report highlights significant progress at its Mumbezhi Copper Project in Zambia, including substantial resource growth and positive metallurgical test results. The company updated its Mineral Resource Estimate twice in 2026, increasing contained copper by 70% since March 2025 and doubling gold resources, while also confirming high copper recoveries and concentrate grades using conventional flotation. A successful A$45 million capital raise has strengthened the balance sheet to fund ongoing exploration and a Scoping Study for the project.
