What got us talking yesterday?
Chalice Mining (ASX:CHN) spinout Falcon Metals (ASX:FAL) was yesterday’s biggest winner after reporting multiple high grade gold hits at Ironbark East, part of the flagship Pyramid Hill project in Victoria.
Pyramid Hill was CHN’s No 1 focus before it hit the motherlode at Julimar, and is highly prospective for high-grade gold deposits like the nearby, world-class Fosterville mine.
According to the Victorian government there’s 32Moz of undiscovered gold in the North Bendigo zone where FAL has a dominant landholding.
Across markets…
Australian shares are poised to open higher, recovering from an earlier tumble in futures in line with swings in New York.
The swings followed release of January US CPI data which opened the door for a somewhat higher potential peak for interest rates.
US inflation slows to 6.4pc but price pressures re-emerge US consumer prices rose 0.5 per cent last month, as services costs surged, bolstering the case for higher interest rates.
ASX futures were up 10 points or 0.14 per cent to 7368 near 7am AEDT; they fell as much as 36 points during an early Wall Street swoon.

ASX silica sand and sand plays
Allup – the ASX’s most recent silica sands play – has been progressing exploration of its Sparkler C project in Western Australia’s South West region.
Hand auger drilling has returned assay results with an average raw materials surface grade of 98.8% SiO2 as well as high purity silica sand to depths of 2.4m with the potential for premium 99.5% SiO2 and sub-100 parts per million iron silica sands once processed.
This program has defined high purity target areas for a follow-up aircore drilling campaign, which the company intends to start in the current quarter.
Program of Works have also been approved for further exploration drilling on its other Sparkler holdings with an updated circuit design successfully producing a 99.8% purity product using material sourced from Sparkler A.
At the Pink Bark project, the company is waiting on reconnaissance and hand auger drilling results to define targets for a follow-up aircore drill program in the first half of 2023 subject to Heritage approvals.
Plans are also in place for aircore drilling at Dune Buggy during the second half of 2022 while permissions and permitting are underway to start exploration at the recently granted Rail Head project near Bunbury.
