Financial Post ·

PERTH, Australia, Aug. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Alkane Resources Limited (ASX: ALK; TSX: ALK; OTCQX: ALKRY) (‘Alkane’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce the latest exploration results highlighting the discovery of a new high-grade zone of the Cuffley Lode, and drilling results from the Sub-KC domain at depth below the Augusta mine and the Costerfield property in Victoria, Australia

“This discovery of unmined high-grade material directly adjacent one of Costerfield’s top-shelf historical orebodies showcases the importance of Alkane’s directive of revisiting and challenging old models and preconceptions surrounding mineralisation to extract value. We will continue seeking this new mineralisation alongside generating new targets within our leases.”

The Costerfield gold-antimony deposit was discovered in 1861, antimony having been already identified in the district as early as 1853 as prospectors attracted to the McIvor (Heathcote) alluvial gold rush began to explore the surrounding hills for the primary deposits. Several lodes along a 3km corridor were rapidly opened up, the bulk of historical production coming from leases at the northern end of the field; the Costerfield (Main), Bombay and Minerva mines. Production from these mines primarily took place in two phases, between 1861-1883 and 1903-1924, and a short-lived attempt at redeveloping the mine occurred between 1933-1939.
