  • Barton Gold Hits High-Grade Assays in Phase 2 Drilling at Tunkillia Area 51
    May 26, 2026, 11:46 PM EDT. Barton Gold (ASX: BGD) reported high-grade gold assay results from Phase 2 drilling at its Tunkillia project in South Australia, indicating potential resource growth and extended mine life at Area 51. The 30,000-metre campaign returned broad intervals, including 52m at 0.95g/t and 43m at 1.82g/t gold. Managing Director Alexander Scanlon noted the results surpass Phase 1 grades, suggesting higher-value mineralisation that could boost the optimised open pit's economics. These assays will feed into a pre-feasibility study (PFS) due by year-end to aid financing and mining lease applications. The Phase 2 program, focused on infill drilling across multiple pits, is expected to wrap up soon amid a supportive gold and silver price environment.
