Recharge Metals Re-Assays Reveal Higher Tungsten Grades At Brandy Hill South
Recharge Metals Limited has returned tungsten grades up to 49% higher from pulp re-assays at the Brandy Hill South Project in Western Australia, prompting a reinterpretation of the asset as a potential intrusion-related copper-tungsten-molybdenum system.
The technical review used lithium borate fusion analysis after determining that previous 4-acid ICP-MS testing under-reported tungsten concentrations. Selected re-assays from two diamond holes completed in 2022 returned intercepts including 11 metres at 0.33% copper and 0.15% tungsten trioxide from 124 metres in hole BHRCD030, including 1 metre grading 1.19% tungsten trioxide, 0.1% copper and 54 parts per million molybdenum from 134 metres.
Additional re-assays from hole BHRCD027 returned 7.5 metres at 1.65% copper and 0.13% tungsten trioxide from 375.5 metres, and 6 metres at 0.76% copper and 0.13% tungsten trioxide from 408 metres. Both intervals sit within a broader zone of 41.5 metres grading 0.73% copper, 0.08% tungsten trioxide and 25 parts per million molybdenum from 375.5 metres. Recharge defined copper mineralisation over a 500-metre strike and 400-metre vertical depth during 2022 drilling.
“Our technical review has demonstrated that the mineralisation at Brandy Hill South has the potential to be extensive and contain more tungsten than the original assay results suggested. Visual inspection of the drill core under UV light revealed broad intervals of disseminated scheelite throughout, so we re-assayed a small selection of pulps from two diamond holes completed by the Company in 2022 with the appropriate method and confirmed that the original method under-reported the tungsten.”
“This is highly significant, given that broad Cu-Mo mineralisation remains open and is already defined over 500m of strike and to 400m vertical depth. We remain well funded with $5.6M cash as of 31 June 2026 and look forward to commencing drone magnetics this month as we advance Brandy Hill South alongside our inaugural 30,000m drill program at the 94,500oz Prospero Gold Deposit, Sunset Well Gold Project in Leonora.”

The company has identified more than 1,000 sample pulps for priority tungsten re-assaying and staked two new mineral tenement claims near the project on 1 September 2026. A high-resolution drone aeromagnetic survey is scheduled to commence at Brandy Hill South in September 2026 to test a priority 2.5-kilometre geophysical target.
