The drilling campaign at Auld Creek revealed impressive results, including 17m @ 9.8g/t AuEq and 8m @ 8.9g/t AuEq. The mineralized system has been substantially expanded, with vertical extent increasing from 160m to 300m and strike length extending from 350m to 620m.
The company is operating two drilling rigs at Auld Creek, testing the Bonanza and Fraternal shoots. Surface soil geochemistry confirms a 2.5km mineralized corridor. While drilling at the Cumberland target has concluded with limited success, regional exploration at Bell Hill has yielded promising initial results, with rock-chip samples returning grades of 14.2 g/t and 14.3g/t Au.
RUA GOLD (OTCQB: NZAUF) has announced a significant expansion of its drilling program at the Reefton Project in New Zealand, backed by a strong cash position of $14 million as of June 30, 2025. The company is mobilizing a third drill rig and plans 4,000 meters of diamond drilling at Auld Creek over the next four months.
The company aims to increase Auld Creek's resource to over 300,000 gold-equivalent ounces by end-2025. The exploration program spans multiple sites including Cumberland, Alexander River, and Glamorgan, with drilling at Glamorgan expected to commence in Q4 2025. RUA GOLD has allocated $1 million for marketing initiatives over the next 12-18 months while maintaining annual administrative costs under $1 million.
RUA GOLD (OTCQB: NZAUF) has completed the second phase of surface exploration at its Glamorgan Project in New Zealand's Hauraki Goldfield, a major epithermal gold province with historical production of over 15M oz gold. The project, adjacent to OceanaGold's Wharekirauponga deposit (1.4Moz at 17.9 g/t Au), has revealed promising results including:
- Four significant gold-arsenic soil anomalies extending over 4km in length - Rock chip samples containing up to 43 g/t Au - Three major resistive structures identified through CSAMT geophysics - Comprehensive exploration including geological mapping, TerraSpec clay mineralogy, and ultra-detailed magnetic surveys
The company plans to submit its Access Agreement application for drilling by end of May 2025, with results being processed through the VRIFY AI-platform for systematic target identification.
RUA GOLD (NZAUF) reports significant drilling results from its Auld Creek project in New Zealand's Reefton Goldfield, highlighting improved gold-antimony grades at depth. Key intercepts include 9m @ 5.9g/t AuEq (5.2g/t Au & 0.16% Sb) from 159m depth and 1.25m @ 48.3g/t AuEq (13.3g/t Au & 8.1% Sb) from 210m depth.
The project currently has an inferred resource of 700,000 tonnes at 3.1g/t Au and 1.1% Sb, containing 67,000oz of gold and 8,000 tonnes of antimony. The resource is hosted in two ore shoots (Bonanza and Fraternal) and remains open at depth, with surface soil geochemistry indicating potential over a 2.5km length.
The announcement highlights the strategic importance of antimony, currently trading above US$50,000 per tonne, up from US$11,350 in early 2024, following China's export controls announcement in August 2024.
RUA GOLD (NZAUF) has commenced drilling at the Cumberland gold camp target in New Zealand's Reefton Goldfield. The program focuses on the Gallant lode, following up on historical high-grade intercepts that showed 20.7m intersection assaying 62.2 g/t (2 oz/t) gold at shallow depths of 30-60m.
The initial program includes 6 holes ranging from 70m to 150m depth, targeting a 600m zone from Gallant to Sir Francis Drake historical workings. The Cumberland gold camp comprises 7 historic mines in a 2km zone, with past production of 21,740oz gold at an average recovered grade of 26.1 g/t.
The company is utilizing VRIFY's AI-assisted mineral discovery platform to accelerate exploration, processing over 84GB of data and 170,000 data points. The Cumberland structural zone emerged as a standout target during the AI training phase. The site is located 3km south of the Globe-Progress Mine, which historically produced over 1 million ounces of gold.
RUA GOLD (TSXV: RUA) (OTCQB: NZAUF) has reported significant gold-antimony intercepts from its Auld Creek project within the Reefton Goldfield in New Zealand. Recent drilling results revealed impressive grades including 12m @ 12.2g/t AuEq (1.9g/t Au & 2.4% Sb) from hole ACDDH024 and 8m @ 13.2g/t AuEq (2.2g/t Au & 2.2% Sb) from hole ACDDH025.

Drilling has confirmed higher grade antimony mineralization within the Fraternal shoot, which remains open to the south and at depth.
This exploration success comes as antimony prices have surged to over US$50,000 per tonne from US$11,350 at the start of 2024. Antimony is considered a critical mineral with global supply, predominantly controlled by China, Russia, and Tajikistan. New Zealand recently added antimony to its first-ever critical minerals list on January 31, 2025.
Rua Gold Inc. (NZAUF) announces significant developments following New Zealand's inclusion of gold and antimony in its Critical Minerals List. The company reports holding the majority of New Zealand's antimony inventory, with antimony prices surging 250% in 2024 to over US$40,000 per ton.
The company's Reefton Project shows promising antimony potential, with recent drilling at Auld Creek intersecting 4-5m of strong stibnite mineralization. The project already has an inferred resource of 700,000 tonnes at 3.1g/t Au and 1.1% Sb, containing 67,000oz of gold and 8,000 tonnes of antimony. Surface exploration has revealed high-grade samples, including rocks with up to 40.3% antimony and gold grades up to 74.3g/t.
Recent drilling commenced in December 2024, with holes ACDD024 and ACDD025 showing promising mineralization. The company expects assay results in February.
