Tambourah Metals (ASX: TMB), one of the prominent players in the current surge of exploration activities in Western Australia’s Pilbara, has declared that the region will be its focus for 2025.
With a gold rush history that traces back to the 1880s, the Pilbara continues to be a major attraction for hunters of the precious metal.
New finds such as De Grey Mining’s (ASX: DEG) giant Hemi discovery mean that the rugged region in WA’s north-west is again the site of a “gold rush”.
Tambourah is preparing to take advantage of the historical gold field that shares the company’s name, which was among the original locations when gold was discovered in the 1890s.
The Tambourah field comprises a series of workings, including over 20 historic gold mines developed on north-south oriented quartz lodes over 3 kilometres of strike.
Since listing in 2021, Tambourah has completed first-pass drilling of five of the historic prospects and is now focusing on extending the areas of known mineralisation both along strike and below the shallow workings.
Historical mining of these sited produced 5,445 tonnes of ore for 148kg of gold, equating to a 27.35 grams per tonne head grade.
The company was also successful with a maiden diamond drilling program in 2024, with highlight results at the Tambourah King target of 2.65m at 32.3g/t from 58.35m.
Tambourah’s 2024 diamond drill (DD) program successfully tested the depth and strike extensions at both the Tambourah King and Federal prospects for intrusion-related and lode gold mineralised systems.
The company plans to undertake DD south of Tambourah King in 2025 to test the continuity of high-grade gold beneath the historical mine.
With record gold prices expected to continue rising this year and a clear plan to target a proven gold play, Tambourah Metals is confident it will have further positive news to report from the Pilbara this year.
