Wildcat Resources delivers more high-grade lithium drill results

Wildcat Resources reports further high-grade lithium drilling results across its flagship WA projects.

The Wildcat Resources Ltd (ASX: WC8) share price is in focus today after the company reported another round of strong lithium drill results at its Bolt Cutter Central and Tabba Tabba projects in WA. Recent highlights include intersections of 18 metres at 1.1% Li₂O at Bolt Cutter Central and 25.1 metres at 1.2% Li₂O at Tabba Tabba.

What did Wildcat Resources report?

  • Multiple high-grade lithium drill intersections across Bolt Cutter Central and Tabba Tabba, including 16m @ 1.5% Li₂O and 13.9m @ 2.0% Li₂O.
  • The Bolt Cutter Central mineralised system now extends over approximately 2.3km by 0.8km and remains open in most directions.
  • Resource modelling at Bolt Cutter Central is underway, with a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate targeted for Q4 2026.
  • Tabba Tabba's Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) remains on track for completion in the second half of 2026.
  • Wildcat finished the quarter with $37.2 million cash at 30 June 2026.

What else do investors need to know?

Wildcat's latest drilling at both projects confirmed the strength and continuity of lithium-bearing pegmatites, with mineralisation both close to surface and at depth. At Bolt Cutter Central, promising results from newly drilled zones have extended known mineralisation, pointing to more exploration upside.

Meanwhile, Wildcat has completed the acquisition of additional LCT rights over ground abutting the Tabba Tabba mining leases, tripling its lithium exploration strike length. Planning for future drill targets in the expanded area is well advanced.

What's next for Wildcat Resources?

Looking ahead, the company's immediate focus is on delivering a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for Bolt Cutter Central and advancing technical studies at Tabba Tabba. Ongoing exploration and infill drilling are planned across both project areas to support resource growth and project development.

The Tabba Tabba DFS is set for release in the second half of 2026, and Wildcat is targeting key new drill regions for further resource upgrades in the months ahead.
