Nickelx Ltd ( (AU:SMX) ) has issued an update.

Strata Minerals has commenced a Phase 2 reverse circulation drilling program at its Zelica Gold Project in Western Australia, following a successful maiden campaign that intersected significant shallow high-grade oxide gold in 22 of 23 holes. The new program will comprise about 20 holes for roughly 2,500 metres, primarily targeting depth extensions of known mineralisation and some infill drilling to support a maiden JORC-compliant Mineral Resource Estimate.

Gold mineralisation at Zelica has been delineated along a strike length of about one kilometre, remains open at depth and along strike, and is now part of a broader gold-mineralised corridor exceeding eight kilometres after the acquisition of the adjacent Zelica South Project. The accelerated drilling and resource work are intended to establish a solid foundation for project evaluation and could materially enhance Strata Minerals’ resource base and development options in a well-serviced gold-producing region.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:SMX) stock is a Hold with a A$0.02 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Nickelx Ltd stock, see the AU:SMX Stock Forecast page.
