Ronin flags porphyry-scale potential at La Punilla after new Cu-Au anomalies

Ronin Resources Ltd ( (AU:RON) ) has shared an announcement.

Ronin Resources has reported new exploration results from ongoing fieldwork at its 100%-owned La Punilla copper-gold project in San Juan, Argentina, where geologists are following up satellite-derived colour anomalies. Recent mapping and sampling at the Quebrada Palca area and other Sentinel 2 anomalies have identified further alteration zones that the company believes may be consistent with a porphyry-style mineral system.

The campaign recorded visible copper oxide mineralisation and tungsten-bearing quartz veins within phyllically altered rocks, alongside hyperspectral evidence of ammonium-bearing muscovite and illite across multiple anomalies, suggesting a possible district-scale porphyry potential. Ronin collected 33 rock-chip samples, including two for radiometric dating, with assay results pending, and plans to begin a drone-based high-resolution aeromagnetic survey in early March, which could significantly refine targets and shape the next phase of exploration at La Punilla.

If the emerging porphyry interpretation is confirmed, La Punilla could materially enhance Ronin’s project pipeline and reposition the company within the regional copper-gold exploration landscape. Stakeholders will be watching upcoming assays and geophysical data closely, as they may validate the scale of the system and support future investment and drilling decisions.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:RON) stock is a Hold with a A$0.19 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Ronin Resources Ltd stock, see the AU:RON Stock Forecast page.
