Back-to-Back Drilling (27 October 2026)

In its 27 October 2026 report, SER said diamond drilling of more than 1,500 m commenced at the Charcoal Bore and Alcala prospects at the Canobie Project, fully funded by Fortescue under a farm-in and joint venture. At the Bulimba Gold Project, partner Sumitomo approved an exploration budget above $1 million, and airborne gravity gradiometry and passive seismic surveys began ahead of a diamond program at Coral Trout, supported by a $137,500 Queensland Government grant.

Diamantina Acquisition and Funding

The acquisition of the Diamantina Copper-Gold Project from Anglo American was completed, and a diamond program supported by a $275,000 grant is set to start in late October. SER raised $1.7 million through a $1.25 million placement and a share purchase plan to fund drilling at the 100%-owned Diamantina Project.

The company said assays are expected from the Canobie and Bulimba programs.
