White Cliff restarts drilling at Rae as high-grade copper system takes shape

White Cliff Minerals Limited ( (AU:WCN) ) has issued an announcement.

White Cliff Minerals has restarted field operations at its Rae Copper Project in Nunavut, with its partner Aurora Geosciences mobilising drilling consumables and camp supplies to site. Reverse circulation drilling at the Danvers prospect is set to begin in the coming weeks along the 8 km Teshierpi Fault Zone, followed by diamond drilling of priority sedimentary copper targets about four weeks later.

The new campaign builds on 2025 drilling at Stark, which intersected high-grade sediment-hosted copper, including 3.5 metres at 7.2% copper within a wider mineralised interval, confirming the basin-hosted copper model. Consultants have since mapped extensive prospective sedimentary horizons and a large untested conductive anomaly across the Rae Basin, and the 2026 program will systematically test the wider Stark-Hulk basin to expand the mineralised footprint and assess the potential scale and continuity of what the company views as an emerging major copper system.

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