Cauldron Energy Limited has reprocessed historic passive seismic data over the Bennet Well deposit at the Yanrey Uranium Project in Western Australia, uncovering new exploration targets and extending the Yanrey palaeochannel 3 km further upstream to the south-southeast.

Southern Geoscience reprocessed the historical data and merged it with survey data collected across 2025 and 2026. The updated imaging shows that the Bennet Well deposit operates as a complex estuary system featuring second-order tributary arms flowing into the main palaeochannel that hosts the Bennet Well Central Orebody.

The reprocessing also established a link between the untested Yanrey palaeochannel and the Bennet Well estuary via the Bennet Well South palaeochannel. In addition, a newly identified western tributary named the Bennet Well West channel extends westward to connect the Bennet Well deposit directly to the Yanrey palaeochannel.

Several small, untested potential extensions to the Bennet Well deposit have emerged from the seismic imagery. Cauldron plans to conduct further infill passive seismic surveys over the deposit to better define these new target areas and fill existing gaps.

“The reprocessing of the historic Bennet Well passive seismic data has delivered a number of additional high priority targets for future drilling at Yanrey. In combination with our more recent data, it has provided our exploration team with a more holistic picture of what is going on under the surface in the Bennet Well area.”

“The newly identified targets will be fed into our regional prioritisation matrix for future drilling - with our exploration team eager to test some of these new Targets this year as part of the 2026 Drill Program, should time and budget permit.”

— Jonathan Fisher, CEO

Initial drilling at the Yanrey palaeochannel is expected to commence in the coming days.
