Trigg Minerals (ASX:TMG) is today lauding a major geological breakthrough at its Antimony Canyon Project in Utah, with the explorer identifying “a district-scale high-sulfidation epithermal system with multiple shallow targets.”

The reinterpretation, which Trigg confirmed has been supported by two independent consultancies, significantly expands the Utah project’s scale.
The “breakthrough” comes as part of a detailed geological review and controlled-source audio frequency magnetotellurics survey run by Dahrouge Geological Consulting and MineOro Explorations at the U.S. project through the second half of CY25. Each firm validated a new district deposit model.
That model suggests Antimony Canyon is structurally controlled – which keeps things simple for Trigg – and hosts a specific volcanic tuff unit.
These findings now “reinterpret Antimony Canyon as a district-scale, high-sulfidation epithermal system” and give Trigg licence to expand its potential ratings, the company told shareholders in an update today.
“For over 70 years, the district’s true potential was ignored,” managing director Andre Booyzen added. “This work has reduced the project’s risk and revealed a range of attractive, shallow, drill-ready targets.”
Mr Booyzen concluded the new model and exceptional grades of up to 33.2% antimony within the claim were both “very significant developments.”
“This new insight offers a clear and scientifically grounded path forward,” he said.
Most recently, Trigg has submitted a notice of intent to the Utah Division of Oil, Gas, and Mining to start drilling. That exploration, once approved, will range from induced polarisation geophysics to structural mapping
TMG is selling at 20.8cps today. The explorer’s up +19% already this week.
