Alien Metals Ltd ( (GB:UFO) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Alien Metals has reported that joint venture partner West Coast Silver has completed a 76-hole, 1,060m aircore drilling programme at the high-grade Elizabeth Hill Silver Project in the Pilbara, targeting near-mine and regional prospects around the historic silver operation and along the Munni Munni margin. Logging of the aircore drilling identified strong geological indicators analogous to those at the Elizabeth Hill mine, including intense chlorite and silica alteration, carbonate veining and iron oxide staining along key ultramafic–granite contacts at prospects NM2, NM5 and NM6, while a recently finished Phase 2 diamond drilling campaign intersected visible native silver, with assays from both programmes due in early 2026. Prospects NM5 and NM6 have been elevated for priority follow-up work after drilling confirmed favourable geology interpreted to be near-surface expressions of known high-grade zones, positioning Alien’s 30%-owned Elizabeth Hill joint venture for potentially significant resource growth and a more aggressive exploration push in 2026 if upcoming assay results support the encouraging geological observations.
