Gold-antimony explorer Southern Cross Gold has extended the mineralisation at its mainstay Sunday Creek project near Melbourne by 200m to the west, with recent drilling reportedly unveiling six new vein sets.

The retooled Southern Cross Gold, a dual-listed Canadian-Australian explorer following its merger with major shareholder Mawson Gold, has kicked off its new era by heralding deep drilling at Sunday Creek in Victoria that has provided more evidence for a robust gold-antimony system.

Yet more spectacular numbers have been reported by Southern Cross Gold from its Sunday Creek gold and antimony exploration play near Melbourne.
