The company collected 39 rock samples from outcrops and historic mine dumps across the Cleanskin Creek, Leichardt Creek, Stockman and Bridle Creek tenements.
Among the standout results was 14.4g/t gold and 150g/t silver from the Comet Prospect at Bridle Creek, where historic workings extend for around one kilometre and include shafts reaching depths of ~25 metres.
At the Tambo–Mountain Creek Prospect within the Leichardt Creek tenement, sampling returned 221g/t silver and 5.81g/t gold, with ActivEX interpreting the prospect as having significant aerial extent beneath transported quartz sand cover.
Additional high-grade results included 7.32g/t gold and 30.9g/t silver from the Stockman Prospect and 5.29g/t gold and 59.59g/t silver at Cleanskin Creek, both accompanied by elevated lead and zinc values.
Managing Director Mark Derriman said the latest program was designed to assess as many historic workings as possible across the Georgetown Project: “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.”
He added that transported quartz sand masks much of the prospective geology at Leichardt Creek, making ground geophysics an important tool to refine drill targets.
The company said results from the latest program have defined priority targets for follow-up soil sampling, geological mapping, ground geophysical surveys and reverse circulation drilling as part of its 2026–27 exploration campaign.
Planned work will also include targeted mapping and rock sampling at the Forsayth tenement before progressing high-priority geochemical and geophysical targets to drilling.
