Guardian Metal Resources reported significant tungsten, copper, silver and gold results across its non-core Nevada exploration portfolio, alongside claim staking that expanded several projects.

The company, which trades on the NYSE American, London's AIM and OTCQB while focusing its core strategy on the past-producing Pilot Mountain and Tempiute tungsten projects, said the wider seven-project portfolio now spans tungsten, gold, silver, copper and lithium targets.

Guardian Metal staked 57 new claims to acquire the White Elephant tungsten project in Elko County, where channel sampling returned 29.0 metres at 0.31% tungsten trioxide (WO3), including a narrower interval grading 0.50% WO3 with elevated molybdenum.

At Pilot North, less than 20 miles from the flagship Pilot Mountain project, geological mapping identified over 1.2 kilometres of outcropping skarn mineralisation, prompting an additional 8 claims and channel results of 29.0 metres at 0.18% WO3.

The company also staked 20 claims to secure the new Cinch tungsten-silver project, where grab samples returned 0.22% WO3 and 1,950 grams per tonne silver, and added 56 claims at the Garfield gold-copper-silver project after rock chip samples returned up to 11.2 grams per tonne gold and 7.1% copper.

"Our generative exploration programme continues to demonstrate its value," said chief executive Oliver Friesen, pointing to the rapid staking of White Elephant and Cinch alongside progress at the co-flagship assets.

True thicknesses at the newly reported zones remain unknown pending further drilling.
