LONDON - Greatland Resources Limited announced Wednesday it has completed 53,543 meters of drilling across 711 holes during the September quarter at its Telfer project, marking a strong start to its fiscal year 2026 drilling program.
The company reported it remains on track to deliver its targeted 240,000 meters of drilling for FY26, with a third reverse circulation rig mobilized during the quarter and a fifth underground diamond drilling rig to be deployed in October.
At West Dome Open Pit, Greatland completed 25,286 meters of resource growth drilling targeting extensions to Stage 2 and Stage 7, along with 16,010 meters of resource conversion infill drilling. The company stated that Stage 7 extension drilling is expected to be completed ahead of schedule.
The West Dome Underground drilling campaign saw 4,862 meters drilled across nine holes, with two rigs allocated for the remainder of FY26. Greatland is targeting a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for this area in the March 2026 quarter.
At Main Dome Underground, the company completed 7,386 meters across 67 holes for resource conversion and growth drilling. The company successfully delivered the Eastern Stockwork Corridor, Central, and Tarkin targets to the operations team during the quarter.
Regional exploration activities focused on satellite deposits and priority targets in the Paterson region within trucking distance of the Telfer mill. At Paterson South Farm-In, drill testing intersected further copper mineralization, while at Ernest Giles, first-pass testing of Induced Polarity anomalies was completed with "encouraging pathfinder mineralization identified."
Shaun Day, Greatland's Managing Director, described the quarter as "a great start to our record 240,000m annual drilling program at Telfer," noting that results "further support the potential for multi-year Telfer life of mine extension."
