Broken Hill Mines (ASX:BHM) is pleased to announce mining and processing ramp up at the underground high grade silver-lead-zinc Main Lode ore body (Blackwoods), alongside further outstanding assay results from resource extension drilling of the Blackwoods, Thompsons and British ore bodies.
📌 Investor Highlights:
- Drilling results include significant high grade mineralisation of 3.0m at 1,426g/t AgEq and thick intercepts up to 37.2m at 314g/t AgEq, located outside of the existing Mineral Resource Estimate, indicating strong potential for material resource growth of Main Lode.
- The high grade feed source from the Main Lode ore body (first production October 2025) supplements and upgrades existing feed from the Western Min ore body.
- BHM remains on target to launch an expanded 17,000m drilling program at the Rasp Mine in 2026, focused on further resource extensions of the Main Lode ore body.
- The continued expansion of Main Lode operations at Rasp, and initiation of first mining activities by BHM at the Pinnacles Mine, are key initiatives of BHM's strategy to fully utilise its 750,000tpa capacity processing plant at Rasp over the course of 2026.
