Aruma Resources (ASX:AAJ) has reported further high-grade assay results from its ongoing Phase-2 diamond drilling program at the Tillex Copper-Silver Project in the Timmins Mining District of Ontario, Canada, with the latest results from drill holes TX26-014 and TX26-015 extending the continuous south-west strike of the mineralised system to approximately 245 metres.

Key Points

Drill hole TX26-014 returned 27.7m at 1.51% copper and 5.69g/t silver from 49.3m depth, and 11.25m at 1.43% copper and 13.69g/t silver from 94.75m depth.
Drill hole TX26-015 returned 6.54m at 1.21% copper and 5.17g/t silver from 58.66m depth.
The high-grade mineralised zone now extends to approximately 245 metres of strike and remains open in all directions and down-dip.
Drill holes TX26-016 to TX26-023 have been completed with assay results pending; the Phase-2 program is approximately 70% complete and is expected to continue to early January 2027.

Latest Drill Results from TX26-014 and TX26-015

The results from TX26-014 and TX26-015 further extend the continuous shallow, high-grade copper-silver mineralised system at Tillex. Mineralisation commences immediately beneath an overburden of approximately 40 metres and is interpreted to dip at a relatively shallow angle. Significant copper mineralisation was also intersected within the footwall sequence at shallow depth in TX26-015, demonstrating that mineralisation is not confined solely to the overlying argillite host. According to the filing, this expands the areas available for further drilling and provides additional drill targets beyond the existing mineralised footprint.

Phase-2 Drilling Program Status and Pending Results

Aruma's Phase-2 drilling program is approximately 70% complete. Drill holes TX26-016 to TX26-023 inclusive have been completed, with assay results currently pending. These holes are designed to further extend the continuous high-grade strike approximately 115 metres to the south-west beyond TX26-014. The company's recent acquisition of patented mineral right PAT4887 has opened a new high-priority target area directly along strike to the north-east of the Tillex high-grade mineralised zone, with drilling in that area to be incorporated into the Phase-2 program. The program is expected to continue to early January 2027.

Broader Tillex Trend and Geological Context

The broader Tillex Trend extends for approximately 3.2 kilometres of prospective strike, the majority of which the filing states remains largely unexplored beyond the company's current focused drill area. Managing Director Grant Ferguson said the intersection of copper mineralisation within the altered footwall in TX26-015 indicates mineralisation is not confined to the principal argillite host, expanding targetable areas. Ferguson also noted the Tillex Trend is currently interpreted to extend for 3.4 kilometres, with the system remaining open along strike and down-dip. Results from holes TX26-016 to TX26-023 will be released as they become available.
