ActivEX (ASX:AIV) has reported ‘high-grade’ gold and silver results from surface rock sampling at its Georgetown Project in Queensland, with standout intercepts defining priority targets for the 2026/2027 exploration program.
The company collected 39 rock samples across four prospects during June, with results highlighting the Comet prospect at Bridle Creek and the Tambo-Mountain Creek prospects at Leichardt Creek as the ‘most compelling’ areas for follow-up work.
The standout result of 14.4 grams per tonne gold (Au) and 150g/t silver (Ag) came from the Comet Prospect, where historical workings extend over approximately one kilometre with shafts reaching 25m depth.
Additional gold results included 7.32g/t Au at Stockman and 5.29g/t Au at Cleanskin Creek, each with associated silver and base metals.
At the Tambo-Mountain Creek prospects, ‘high-grade’ silver of 221g/t Ag with 5.81g/t Au was returned from sample LCR012. The company notes the prospect has ‘significant aerial extent’ masked by transported sand cover.
Managing Director Mark Derriman says the results identify the Comet and Comet West prospects at Bridle Creek and the Tambo-Mountain Creek prospects at Leichardt Creek as the ‘most extensive and compelling areas’ for follow-up.
“At Leichardt Creek, transported quartz sand masks much of the prospective geology, meaning ground geophysics will be important in refining targets ahead of drilling,” Derriman notes.
ActivEX plans to conduct further surficial geochemical exploration, along with targeted geological mapping and rock sampling at the Forsyth tenement.
Ground-based geophysical surveys will precede reverse circulation drilling of high-priority targets.
ActivEX is an Australian explorer advancing a portfolio of gold, silver, and base metals projects across North and Southeast Queensland.
