High-grade gold-antimony-tungsten system has been identified at the Curry’s Block Prospect, as part of our ongoing project-wide review of tungsten and critical minerals potential across the Hillgrove Antimony-Gold Project in NSW. Historic drilling has confirmed mineralisation over a 1km strike length and open at depth and along strike.
Tungsten has emerged as one of the world's most strategically critical metals. With China controlling over 80% of global supply, Western governments, including Australia, have formally designated tungsten a Critical Mineral, and prices have reached record levels.
Key historic intercepts include 5m @ 11.8g/t AuEq from 144m and 5m @ 5.7g/t AuEq from 27m, with high-grade tungsten intersections including 5m @ 0.38% WO₃.
Located just 4.5km from the Hillgrove Processing Plant, Curry’s represents a potential near-mine growth opportunity as Larvotto advances drilling and assesses tungsten as a potential high-value by-product alongside gold and antimony production.
Managing Director, Ron Heeks, commented:
“Historic drilling at Curry’s Block Mine highlights a compelling and underexplored gold–tungsten opportunity. The results define a coherent, high-grade tungsten system with associated gold and antimony that remains open at depth and along strike. With limited follow-up completed to date, Curry’s Block represents a highly attractive near mine growth opportunity.
As tungsten is increasingly recognised as a critical metal amid tightening global supply it is trading at record high prices. The Curry’s Prospect offers Larvotto exposure to another strategically important commodity within the Hillgrove Project. Drilling will commence shortly and we look forward to future results as we seek to build a significant tungsten portfolio.”
