Western Mines Group Ltd ( (AU:WMG) ) has shared an update.

Western Mines Group has outlined plans for its Phase 5 drilling campaign at the Mulga Tank Ni-Cu-Co-PGE Project, committing to a 32-hole, ~10,000-metre program funded by a recent capital raising and government-backed Exploration Incentive Scheme grants. The work will combine reverse circulation and diamond drilling to target both new exploration areas and resource infill across key tenements.

The campaign will focus on higher-grade nickel zones, including follow-up drilling around previously reported +1–2% nickel intersections and shallow +0.40% nickel mineralisation that could support an optimised open-pit mine plan. Additional EIS-backed holes will test a 1.5-kilometre mineralised komatiite body on a neighbouring tenement, positioning the company to grow its resource and improve project economics amid a stronger nickel price and solid funding position.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:WMG) stock is a Sell with a A$0.20 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Western Mines Group Ltd stock, see the AU:WMG Stock Forecast page.
