Neds Creek Maiden Drill Targets Ricci Lee

BOA Resources is preparing to launch its maiden drill program at the Neds Creek Copper Project in Western Australia, with heritage surveys completed, drilling contracts signed, and approvals in place. The 7,500-metre RC campaign, plus 7,500 metres of aircore drilling, will target structurally controlled copper mineralisation, beginning at the Ricci Lee prospect as the priority for resource definition. The Ricci Lee structure sits about two kilometres southwest of the Thaduna deposit and has historical high-grade intersections, supporting its selection as the initial drilling focus. The Neds Creek project also includes the Thaduna and Green Dragon deposits, which contribute a combined JORC resource of 5.3 million tonnes at 2.3% copper, underpinning BOA’s copper strategy in the WA Murchison region. BOA emphasizes its readiness and funding to execute the program and aims to expand its copper inventory to an economically meaningful scale, with additional targets such as Rooney’s following Ricci Lee. The maiden program is slated to begin in early August 2026, marking a pivotal step in BOA’s plan to grow its copper resources amid rising demand from copper-intensive sectors.
