American West Metals Ltd. ( (AU:AW1) ) has issued an update.

American West Metals has confirmed that historical mine waste dumps at its West Desert Project in Utah contain high grades of critical metals including copper, silver, indium, germanium and tellurium, alongside very high zinc and lead values. The company plans further sampling to estimate volumes and recoverable metal, viewing the unconsolidated surface material as a potential near-term revenue source aided by modern processing.

Rock sampling across the broader project has identified new high-grade trends of copper, zinc, silver and indium outside the existing resource and mine dumps, significantly expanding the mineralised footprint and target area. A 5,000m drilling program is already underway to test high-priority geophysical and geochemical targets, while American West engages with U.S. government and industry initiatives that could support project funding and strengthen its role in domestic critical metals supply chains.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:AW1) stock is a Hold with a A$0.04 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on American West Metals Ltd. stock, see the AU:AW1 Stock Forecast page.
