An update from Riedel Resources Limited ( (AU:RIE) ) is now available.
Riedel Resources has agreed to acquire a majority, controlling interest in the Cosmo and Mt Venn gold projects in Western Australia’s Laverton Gold District, adding roughly 1,000 square kilometres of under-explored greenstone belts to its portfolio. The move positions the company as a multi-project gold explorer across Tier 1 jurisdictions in Australia and the U.S., complementing its existing Kingman Project in Arizona.
The transaction is supported by a A$2.5 million equity placement, giving Riedel about A$4 million in pro forma cash to fund systematic exploration, including drill programs at kilometre-scale gold-in-soil anomalies at Cosmo expected to start in July 2026. Riedel is also strengthening its team with experienced mining executives linked to major global gold discoveries, while Sarama Resources will become a significant shareholder with an initial stake of about 32 percent, underscoring strategic alignment and potential long-term collaboration.
Riedel plans to leverage Sarama’s preliminary work at Cosmo and Mt Venn, which has included data compilation, geochemical surveys and heritage clearances, to accelerate the first substantial drilling since the 1990s. The company also intends to broaden exploration at Kingman beyond the Tintic prospect, seeking to unlock further value from an area with historic gold production that has seen limited modern exploration.
