How WA1's West Arunta Project Continues to Provides High-Grade Ore?
WA1 Resources Ltd (ASX: WA1) has announced additional exploration results from its 2023 drilling program at the West Arunta Project in Western Australia. The company confirmed high-grade niobium continuity, which was demonstrated between previously released broad 400m spaced drill holes and new high-grade intersections from the ongoing 200m step-out drilling in the east.
Expansion and Continuity
The results define a shallow, high-grade mineralisation blanket within a northeast-southwest trending zone that currently extends for approximately 1. 5km and remains open. The world-class intersections of a supply-constrained critical mineral further validate the significance of the Luni niobium discovery.
Good Drill Programme
A total of 105 reverse circulation (RC) and 11 diamond drill holes have been drilled at Luni, with 32 holes now reported. The 15,000m drilling program is nearing completion, with the 200m grid drill-out near completion and the 100m infill program expanded.

High-Grade Continuity
The results from the drilling program have shown that high-grade niobium continuity has been demonstrated between previously released broad 400m spaced drill holes. Including 20m at 2. 1% Nb2O5, 10m at 4. 0% Nb2O5, within an overall interval from 86m of 37m at 2. 3% Nb2O5, and 9m at 5. 2% Nb2O5, within an overall interval of 15m at 3. 3% Nb2O5. Additionally, new high-grade intersections from the ongoing 200m step-out drilling in the east include 20m at 2. 3% Nb2O5 and 7m at 2. 7% Nb2O5.
In conclusion, the West Arunta Project in Western Australia continues to provide high-grade enriched niobium horizon, even after exploring for 15,000m and completing 105 RC and 11 diamond drill holes. The drilling programme is expected to be completed soon, with further exploration updates to follow.
