Executive Summary

  • Inflection Resources Ltd. has been awarded three exploration grants totaling AUD$300,000 from the Northern Territory Government's Geophysics and Drilling Collaborations (GDC) Program.
  • The funding will finance planned drilling and geophysical surveys at the company’s 100%-owned Endurance Project to advance exploration for concealed Iron Oxide Copper Gold (IOCG) deposits.
  • All necessary aboriginal clearances, pastoralist agreements, and government drilling permits are secured, with field activities expected to commence during the 2026 Northern Territory field season.

Key Details

  • Total grant value: AUD$300,000 from the Northern Territory Government's GDC Program.
  • AUD$140,000 allocated for drilling at the Flashlight Target (E10), a coincident magnetic and gravity anomaly interpreted as a potential concealed IOCG system.
  • AUD$80,000 allocated for an induced polarisation and magnetotelluric (IP-MT) geophysical program over the Bigeye and Barreleye Targets (E1 and E2) to better define conductivity and chargeability anomalies beneath sedimentary cover.
  • AUD$80,000 allocated for subsequent drilling at the Bigeye and Barreleye Targets (E1-E2) following the IP-MT survey completion.
  • Project scope: The Endurance Project comprises approximately 4,200 square kilometres in the East Tennant region of the Northern Territory, covering prospective Proterozoic basement concealed beneath Georgina Basin sedimentary cover.
  • Regulatory status: All aboriginal clearances, pastoralist agreements, and government permits to drill are fully in place.
  • Timeline: Field activities associated with the grants are expected to commence during the 2026 Northern Territory field season, subject to final grant documentation and contractor availability.
