    Kali Metals Extends Gold Strike Length to 2km at Marble Bar Project

    Recent rock chip sampling has revealed a significant expansion of gold mineralisation at Kali Metals' (ASX:KM1) Marble Bar Gold Project, with the company now defining a cumulative strike length of 2 kilometres of gold in outcrop, marking a major milestone in the project's development.

    High-Grade Gold Extensions Into New Tenement

    The latest exploration results have extended gold mineralisation by 600 metres into the recently acquired 'Peggy' tenement (E45/6389), delivering impressive rock chip results including:

    • 7.9 g/t gold
    • 7.1 g/t gold
    • 6.1 g/t gold
    • 5.9 g/t gold

    These new results build on the company's growing gold footprint across the project area, which now encompasses:

    Prospect Strike Length Samples Peak Gold Average Grade
    Tiger 1.7 km 60 19.1 g/t 2.5 g/t
    Sherman 300 m 10 6.6 g/t 2.5 g/t

    "The first stage of our target delineation phase at our emerging and exciting Marble Bar Gold Project is nearing completion," said Paul Adams, Managing Director of Kali Metals. "The new high-grade surface results have extended the footprint of mineralisation to a cumulative 2km length, marking a major milestone in delineation of the mineralised corridor."

    Advanced Exploration Technologies Unveil New Target

    Kali has deployed sophisticated exploration methods to refine its targeting approach, including:

    • Completion of a high-resolution UAV magnetic survey covering both the Tiger and Sherman Gold Prospects
    • Integration of publicly available hyperspectral data
    • Identification of a new alteration zone between the Tiger and Sherman Prospects

    This integrated approach has proven effective, with the company now focusing on planning its maiden drill program to test high-priority targets along the 2km trend.

    Understanding Magnetic Surveys in Gold Exploration

    Magnetic surveys are a critical tool in modern gold exploration programs. These surveys measure subtle variations in the Earth's magnetic field caused by different rock types and structures below the surface.

    Why magnetic surveys matter for gold explorers:

    • Gold mineralisation often occurs along structural breaks and discontinuities
    • These structures typically appear as distinct "breaks" or "edges" in magnetic data
    • Gold deposits are frequently associated with alteration that changes magnetic signatures

    At Marble Bar, Kali's data shows gold mineralisation correlating with breaks in magnetic features and anomalies in the hyperspectral quartz index—precisely the patterns experienced explorers look for when targeting potential gold-bearing structures.

    Strategic Exploration Roadmap

    Kali has outlined a comprehensive exploration strategy for the coming months:

    1. Complete mapping and rock-chip sampling over the newly identified target area between Tiger and Sherman Gold Prospects
    2. Design and implement a maiden drilling program at the Tiger and Sherman Prospects
    3. Complete initial petrological and mineralogical studies
    4. Conduct a drone survey over recently granted tenements E45/6429 and E45/6430
    5. Perform initial reconnaissance sampling over these new tenements to develop additional drill targets

    The company's methodical approach demonstrates a commitment to systematic exploration across its expanding Marble Bar tenement package.

    Investment Thesis: Early-Stage Gold Explorer with Expanding Footprint

    Kali Metals presents an interesting opportunity for investors seeking exposure to early-stage gold exploration. Several factors make the company worth monitoring:

    1. Expanding gold footprint: The extension to a 2km strike length indicates the potential scale of the mineralising system
    2. Consistent high-grade results: Surface samples averaging 2.5 g/t gold across both prospects suggest economic potential
    3. Strategic land acquisitions: Recent additions to the tenement package demonstrate management's commitment to consolidating the project area
    4. Methodical exploration approach: The integration of geophysics, geochemistry and field mapping shows technical rigour
    5. Upcoming drilling catalyst: The planned maiden drill program will provide the first test of subsurface mineralisation

    The company's exploration is transitioning from surface sampling to subsurface testing, a critical phase that should provide greater insight into the project's potential.

    Why Investors Should Follow Kali Metals

    Kali Metals represents an opportunity to invest in a gold exploration company at a relatively early stage of asset development. With gold prices near historical highs, junior explorers with promising projects can deliver significant returns if exploration proves successful.

    The Marble Bar Gold Project's location in Western Australia's Pilbara region—a prolific gold mining district—provides additional confidence in the geological setting. The project's proximity to established mining infrastructure in Marble Bar (just 10km away) could also benefit future development.

    For investors with an appetite for early-stage gold exploration, Kali Metals offers:

    • A technically sound exploration approach
    • High-grade surface samples indicating potential economic mineralisation
    • A growing tenement position in a proven gold district
    • Multiple near-term catalysts including a maiden drilling program

    As the company transitions from surface exploration to drilling, the coming months should provide critical insights into whether the promising surface results extend to meaningful subsurface mineralisation—the key determinant of any gold project's ultimate value.
