Castle Minerals (ASX:CDT) has confirmed it retains full ownership of its Polelle and Wanganui Gold Projects, covering a combined 163km2 in the highly prospective Meekatharra goldfields of Western Australia.
The projects were previously under an option agreement with Great Boulder Resources (ASX:GBR), which expired on 30 November 2025 and has not been renewed, reflecting significant changes in regional dynamics and Castle’s strategic priorities.
Located near multiple operating and past-producing gold mines, both projects offer strong strategic value due to existing infrastructure and potential for regional consolidation.
Historical exploration at Wanganui has demonstrated notable gold mineralisation, with reverse circulation drilling returning high-grade intercepts including 3 m at 18.66 g/t Au from 62 m and 8 m at 4.10 g/t Au from 66m.
