Sophisticated investors in Podium Minerals have pledged $4.5 million towards exploration at the company's Parks Reef platinum group metals project in the Mid-West region of Western Australia.
Podium Minerals has kicked off the new year on a high after diamond drill holes sunk just prior to Christmas were shown to have intersected a thick sequence of mineralisation at its Parks Reef platinum group elements project in the Mid West region of WA. The news provided a perfect start for incoming CEO Sam Rodda who took up the reins on 1 January.
Podium Minerals has upgraded its mineral resource estimate at the company’s Parks Reef platinum group metals project near Meekatharra in WA boosting its previous PGM estimates by 28 per cent to 2.8 million ounces grading 1.56 grams per tonne PGM. The copper estimates also experienced a healthy boost rising by 31 per cent to 27.8m tonnes at 0.24 per cent copper for 104,000 tonnes of contained copper.
Podium Minerals has boosted its exploration target at its Parks Reef project in WA with recent drilling underscoring a larger target over 12km that encompasses the 2.8 million ounce combined platinum, palladium and gold resource. The revised target of 70Mt to 75Mt at 1.2 g/t to 1.6 g/t gold for 2.7Moz to 3.8Moz platinum-palladium-gold has been estimated by projecting the mineralised zone currently within the inferred mineral resource model.
Podium Minerals has returned a set of exciting values in a re-assay of historic platinum group element intercepts that confirm high levels of rhodium and iridium mineralisation at its Parks Reef PGM project in WA. Assay results from 31 historic holes for over 700 samples confirm high-grade and high-value rhodium levels with more than 2,100 samples still awaiting assay results.

Australia’s first five-element platinum group metals mine is one step closer to reality after historic samples were resampled, showing high-grade rhodium and iridium at Podium Minerals’ Parks Reef PGM project in Western Australia, lifting the value of an ounce from the project by 30 per cent with the addition of the two valuable metals.
Deep diamond drilling by Podium Minerals has doubled the known depth of its Parks Reef orebody to more than 500m. According to the company, the three-hole program returned some of the highest platinum group metals assay grades achieved on-site, with two of the three intercept grades coming in well above the current mineral resource estimate. The highlight from the assays is a 1.4m hit running a huge 11.58 g/t 5E PGM.
Podium Minerals is closing in on preferred locations to start mining at its Parks Reef platinum group gold project in WA’s Mid West. Results from its stage-nine drilling program continued to deliver the potential for higher grades in its hunt for critical minerals. Last month the company doubled the depth of the Parks Reef orebody to more than 500m along a 15km strike length.
Podium Minerals has been given the green light to start drilling next week at the central section of its Parks Reef platinum group metals project in the Mid West region of WA after it was granted registered heritage site access in April and its program of work approved last month by the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety.
Podium Minerals has extended the mineralisation at its Parks Reef platinum group metals project in the Mid West region of WA following early results from its stage 10 drilling campaign. The company says drilling has confirmed its exploration target of 70-75 million tonnes at a grade of 1.2 to 1.6 grams per tonne 3E PGM. Early results show four holes hit PGM reef at 150m vertical — extending the resource to 250m vertical.
Podium Minerals says the latest batch of results at its Parks Reef platinum group metals project in the Mid West region of WA continue a 100 per cent hit rate of intersecting the site’s reef. The company recently received assays from two RC holes including highlights of a 13m intersection going 1.94 grams per tonne 3E PGM from 207m including 2m at 5.05 g/t. from 212m that support the expansion of its exploration target.
Podium Minerals’ Parks Reef platinum group metals project in the Mid West region of WA is looking like the gift that keeps on giving after the explorer’s latest round of RC drilling. The Perth-based company’s assay results from nine holes delivered a raft of solid strikes including 6m at 1.39 grams per tonne three-elements platinum-group metals from 177m and 2m going 2.27 g/t 3E PGM from 121m.
Podium Minerals continues to extend its Parks Reef platinum group metals deposit in WA’s Mid West region, with assays from an additional 4 RC holes sunk as part of its stage 10 drilling program delivering solid intercepts including 14m at 1.65 grams per tonne three-elements platinum-group metals from 133m. The results show the miner has intersected the operation’s mineral-laden orebody every time it has fired up the drill rig.
Podium Minerals has confirmed the presence of high-value rhodium and iridium in its maiden drilling campaign for platinum group metals at Parks Reef in WA as the company pushes towards production. Shallow drill results were headlined by 27m at 2.34 g/t 5E PGM from 9m including 7m grading 6.11 g/t from 17m. 5E PGM represents a combination of platinum, palladium, gold, rhodium and iridium.
Podium Minerals has officially added rhodium and iridium to its mineral resource estimate at the company’s Parks Reef project in WA — creating what it says is Australia’s first defined 5E PGM resource. 5E PGM represents a combination of platinum, palladium, gold, rhodium and iridium. Podium says its updated inferred resource is now 52.2 million tonnes at 1.64 grams per tonne for three million ounces of 5E PGM.
The hits keep coming for Podium Minerals as the company continues its 100 per cent strike rate from a drilling campaign aimed at extending mineralisation at its Parks Reef platinum group metals project in WA. The company recently added rhodium and iridium to its mineral resource estimate at Parks Reef and is busy creating what it says is Australia’s first defined 5E PGM resource.
Assays from the central ore zone of Podium Minerals’ Parks Reef platinum group metals project continue to deliver high-grade results as the company assesses its mining potential near Meekatharra in WA. Highlights include a 16m intersection at 2.51 grams per tonne 3E PGM from 76m that recorded 1.69 g/t platinum, 0.80 g/t palladium and 0.01 g/t gold.
Drilling results have confirmed the presence of rhodium and iridium along the entire 15km strike length of Podium Minerals’ 5E PGM Parks Reef project near Meekatharra in the Mid West region of WA. The company recently received results from 30 of the 53 holes drilled as part of its stage 10 campaign designed to firm up the presence of rhodium and iridium. The company recently officially added the two metals to its mineral resource estimate at Parks Reef creating what it says is Australia’s first defined 5E PGM resource.
Podium Minerals is just days away from revealing an updated mineral resource estimate for its Parks Reef platinum group metals project after receiving the final assays from stage 9 and 10 drilling at the site. Among the latest assay highlights were a 19m intercept at 2.48 grams per tonne 5E PGM from 76m including a 2m hit at an impressive 12.9 g/t 5E PGM from 88m.
Podium Minerals has doubled the size of its five-element platinum group metals mineral resource at the company’s flagship Parks Reef project after the completion of a successful drilling campaign. The explorer recently received the final assays from stage 10 drilling at the Mid West site that has led to an upgraded mineral resource estimate of 143 million tonnes at 1.3 grams per tonne for a total of six million ounces of 5E PGM.
Mineral processing test work has confirmed the ability for Podium Minerals to produce a viable platinum group metal flotation concentrate suitable for smelter feeds from ore at its Parks Reef project. The company says additional downstream processing developments have also proven that high metal recovery of all eight metals found at the site can be achieved using atmospheric leaching.
