Javelin Minerals Limited has advanced the first deep diamond drill hole at the Coogee North target to a depth of 150 metres, keeping the program on schedule.

The hole forms part of a two-hole diamond drilling campaign that commenced on September 2, 2026, targeting major intrusive gold and copper anomalies at Coogee North and Coogee West. The active five-to-six-week program is designed to drill each hole to a depth between 800 and 1,000 metres.

At Coogee North, the targeted magnetic anomaly is expected to be intersected between approximately 550 metres and 800 metres depth. The deep geophysical anomalies sit directly beneath shallow historical drilling that outlined gold and copper anomalism linked to a magnetite alteration component.

Westralian Diamond Drilling of Kalgoorlie is executing the program, which is receiving co-funding from the Western Australian Government under the Exploration Incentive Scheme.

The Coogee Gold Project is situated on a granted mining lease 55 kilometres south-east of Kalgoorlie and hosts a JORC mineral resource of 3.6 million tonnes grading 1.08 g/t gold for 127,000 ounces of gold, alongside 1.0 million tonnes at 0.41% copper containing 4,122 tonnes of copper.
