ASX All Ords lithium share jumps on exploration results
Wildcat Resources shares are marching higher following an exploration update from the miner's Bolt Cutter Central lithium discovery.
Bolt Cutter is located in Western Australia, some 10 kilometres from the company's Tabba Tabba Project.
Today, the ASX All Ords lithium share announced the assay results from the remaining 14 drillholes of its 2025 drilling program at Bolt Cutter Central.
Top results from the full 2025 drill campaign included 20 metres at 1.70% lithium from 43 metres; and 12.8m at 2.02% Li2O from 45.3m.
Management said the latest results have significantly extended the interpreted strike extent of the mineralised pegmatite system.
According to Wildcat:
The scale of the discovery footprint highlights the potential for a large mineralised system with multiple stacked dykes of pegmatite which remain open in most directions. The final drilling completed during 2025 focused on completing a continuous drill section approximately 1.6 kilometres in length, aimed at defining the lateral extent of the mineralised pegmatite swarm.
The final batch of assay results confirmed mineralised pegmatite along the entire 1.6-kilometre section. Wildcat plans further exploration in what it labelled a highly prospective region.
What's ahead for Wildcat Resources shares in 2026?
Looking to the year ahead, the ASX All Ords lithium share plans to kick off diamond drilling at Bolt Cutter Central later in January. Wildcat aims to expand the scale of the deposit and to collect samples to support Phase 1 metallurgical test work.
The lithium miner also plans to commence a reverse circulation (RC) drilling program towards the end of the first quarter of calendar year 2026.
The RC program will explore a range of potential targets to further extend mineralisation, as well as conducting infill drilling to advance towards a maiden Mineral Resource estimate for the project.
