The latest update is out from Western Gold Resources Ltd. ( (AU:WGR) ).
Western Gold Resources has launched a 12,000-metre life-of-mine extension, grade control and infill drilling program at its flagship Gold Duke Project, backed by a strong cash balance and buoyant gold prices. The work targets strike and down-dip extensions of the Emu, Eagle, Joyners Find and Gold King South deposits to add tonnes and ounces within the existing pit framework and improve grade continuity.
The company will run this drilling in parallel with mobilisation for Stage 1 production, aiming to expand the mineable resource beyond the planned roughly 43,000 ounces and extend mine life. By aligning drill spacing, methodology and mine planning assumptions with its December 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate, WGR seeks to enhance production flexibility, strengthen long-term project economics and support future resource upgrades and Stage 2 brownfields drilling funded from Stage 1 cash flow.
The most recent analyst rating on (AU:WGR) stock is a Sell with a A$0.20 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Western Gold Resources Ltd. stock, see the AU:WGR Stock Forecast page.
