Encounter Resources Limited (ASX: ENR) has reported a significant extension of high-grade niobium and rare earth element (REE) mineralisation at the Aileron Niobium-REE Project in the West Arunta region of Western Australia. New results from broad-spaced aircore drilling have identified a mineralised zone more than 500m east at Crean.

Encounter Resources Limited (ASX: ENR)’s latest Aileron results sharpen the focus on Green Prospect (Figure 1) as the emerging high-grade core of this West Arunta carbonatite system. A standout 85m @ 3.1% Nb₂O₅ within a thicker 124m envelope materially upgrades grade continuity inside—and beyond—the current resource shell.

Encounter Resources Limited (ASX: ENR) has kicked off a 6-hole RC program at the Haddon copper prospect (formerly BM5) within its 100%-owned Yeneena Copper Project in the Paterson Province, ~50 km SE of Nifty, WA (Figure 1). The target sits on a major fault with coincident EM resistive response and prior aircore results that finished in gossanous, multi-element anomalism—an undercover setting analogous in style to nearby sediment-hosted copper systems and magmatic Cu-Au depos
