Summary
PolarX Limited (ASX: PXX) reported on the quarter ended 30 September 2026, highlighting strong exploration progress at its Alaska Range Copper/Gold Project, particularly at Caribou Dome where a 22-hole, 6,687m diamond drilling program delivered high-grade copper and silver results including 24.8m at 9.8% Cu and 14.5g/t Ag in CD26-007, 22.6m at 8.1% Cu and 13.5g/t Ag in CD26-004, and a 58.5m interval at 2.0% Cu and 3.9g/t Ag in CD26-009 that extended mineralisation more than 60m west of the current mineral resource estimate boundary; the company said modern assaying of twin holes suggests historical drilling may have understated grades, while holes CD26-003 and CD26-008 supported depth potential and magnetic data indicated around 500m of further western extension near a possible feeder zone, with 13 hole assays still pending. At the Stellar Project, PolarX completed a Mobile Magneto-telluric airborne survey and detailed mapping over the Gemini-Jupiter anomaly to refine 2027 drill targets, with results pending, and no work was undertaken at the Humboldt Range Project in Nevada during the quarter. Funding for Alaska field activities continues under the Northern Star joint venture, under which Northern Star had increased its interest in Alaska Range Pty Ltd to 30% after its second earn-in payment. In the accompanying Appendix 5B, PolarX reported net cash used in operating activities of A$511,000, net cash used in investing activities of A$5.216 million, exploration and evaluation expenditure of A$5.173 million, tenement payments of A$43,000, quarter-end cash of A$4.037 million, and estimated funding of 0.71 quarters, noting expected lower cash outflows after the September field season and potential future support from Northern Star’s next optional contribution of up to US$8 million by 31 March 2027 as well as possible equity raisings.
Key Points
  • Quarterly report for the period ended 30 September 2026 was released on 28 October 2026.
  • PolarX completed a 22-hole, 6,687m diamond drilling program at Caribou Dome during the quarter.
  • High-grade Caribou Dome assays included CD26-007 at 24.8m @ 9.8% Cu and 14.5g/t Ag from 2.4m.
  • High-grade Caribou Dome assays included CD26-004 at 22.6m @ 8.1% Cu and 13.5g/t Ag from 3.7m.
  • Hole CD26-009 returned 58.5m @ 2.0% Cu and 3.9g/t Ag from 138.7m and extended mineralisation more than 60m west of the current MRE boundary.
  • Modern assaying of twin holes suggests historical drilling may have underestimated deposit grades.
  • Hole CD26-003 extended known mineralisation about 170m vertically below previous deepest mineralisation, indicating depth potential to about 500m from surface.
  • Hole CD26-008 intersected mineralisation that supports continuity at depth and provides fault offset information.
  • Magnetic survey data indicates about 500m of additional western extension potential at Caribou Dome near a possible feeder zone.
  • Assays were still pending for a further 13 holes drilled during the 2026 season.
  • At the Stellar Project, a Mobile Magneto-telluric airborne survey and detailed mapping were completed to refine 2027 drill targets, with results pending.
  • No activity was undertaken at the Humboldt Range Gold-Silver Project during the quarter.
  • Northern Star had increased its interest in Alaska Range Pty Ltd to 30% after making the second earn-in payment of US$6 million on 30 April 2026.
  • Appendix 5B reported net cash used in operating activities of A$511,000 for the quarter.
  • Appendix 5B reported net cash used in investing activities of A$5.216 million for the quarter.
  • Exploration and evaluation expenditure for the quarter was A$5.173 million.
  • Tenement-related payments were A$43,000 for the quarter.
  • Cash and cash equivalents at 30 September 2026 were A$4.037 million.
  • Estimated quarters of funding available at quarter end were 0.71.
  • The company expects lower cash outflows in the December 2026 quarter due to the seasonal end of the Alaska field season and expects ongoing funding support from the Northern Star joint venture and potential equity raisings.
