Kalamazoo Resources is igniting interest in Victoria’s gold belt, uncovering extensive near-surface gold–antimony anomalies at its Mt Piper project.
The discoveries at multiple prospects suggest the region could host high-grade mineralisation reminiscent of some of Australia’s most celebrated gold camps.
At the historic Kurkuruk prospect, surface sampling has confirmed strong gold and antimony mineralisation along a significant strike, reinforcing the area as a priority target ahead of drilling.
Meanwhile, at Whiteheads Hill, soil surveys have outlined a coherent gold–antimony–arsenic footprint stretching across the landscape, interpreted as part of a fault-controlled system similar to nearby successful operations at Nagambie.
“These results reinforce our view that the Mt Piper gold project has genuine potential to host high-grade gold and antimony mineralisation within a proven Victorian gold province,” Kalamazoo Resources exploration director Ben Ackerman said.
“The combination of strong surface geochemistry, extensive strike continuity and proximity to world-class deposits such as Fosterville, Costerfield and Sunday Creek provides a strong foundation as we advance towards drilling and expansion of our tenure footprint.”
Kalamazoo has also moved to secure additional tenure, capturing more of the prospective strike that connects Mt Piper to the Nagambie area, placing the project within a continuous structural corridor linking Victoria’s premier gold districts.
Air-core drilling is scheduled for the coming quarter, focusing on Whiteheads Hill and Goldie North, where shallow, high-grade veins remain largely untested. With the Victorian gold belt continuing to deliver, Mt Piper could be the next key piece in the region’s expanding story.
