Gateway Mining Extends Cowza Strike to 4.5km With High-Grade Aircore Hits
Gateway Mining Limited has extended continuous high-grade gold mineralisation at the Cowza prospect within its Yandal Project in Western Australia to approximately 4.5 kilometres of strike.
Recent aircore drilling added another kilometre to the defined mineralised footprint, which remains open along strike and at depth. Standout step-out intercepts from the northern program include hole CSAC0066, which returned 8 metres at 2.1 grams per tonne gold from 84 metres, and CSAC0073, which intersected 8 metres at 1.6 grams per tonne gold from 80 metres. Hole CSAC0054 yielded 8 metres at 1.1 grams per tonne gold from 36 metres.
Further south along the Celia Shear Corridor, drilling at Celia South has mapped gold mineralisation over more than 1.5 kilometres of strike. A high-grade shoot was intersected in hole CSAC0101, which returned 4 metres at 9.7 grams per tonne gold from 60 metres.
“These latest results continue to reinforce our belief that Cowza is emerging as a major new gold system within the Yandal Project. With drilling now defining continuous gold mineralisation over approximately 4.5 kilometres of strike, Cowza has grown substantially from the initial discovery announced only in June 2026 and remains open in multiple directions. This level of continuity is rare and highlights the scale of the mineralised system we are uncovering.” — Richard Pugh, Chief Executive Officer
Gateway Mining's exploration activity across the Yandal Project includes multiple emerging gold prospects along the Celia Shear Corridor, such as Haflinger, Hummer, and Rubicon. Parallel reverse circulation drilling is currently underway at Cowza to test fresh rock continuity, geometry, and depth extent, with initial assay results expected next month.
