Brightstar Resources Limited ( (AU:BTR) ) has shared an update.

Brightstar Resources has reported impressive maiden diamond drilling and additional reverse circulation results from its Sandstone Hub, including a standout intercept of 4.2 metres at 26.7 grams per tonne gold at the Musketeer deposit. The drilling, which targets infill and extensional growth across the Indomitable, Vanguard and other deposits, is designed to support an upcoming Mineral Resource update and the Sandstone pre-feasibility study.

Assays from a further 31 diamond holes are still pending, while a 2026 campaign with two RC and two diamond rigs is underway to complete PFS-focused infill and pursue resource growth. With several key deposits never historically mined and a strong balance sheet to fund exploration and studies, Brightstar aims to de-risk Sandstone, upgrade its Mineral Resource by the June quarter of 2026 and position the project for a future development decision.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:BTR) stock is a Sell with a A$0.46 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Brightstar Resources Limited stock, see the AU:BTR Stock Forecast page.
