[{"type":"text","content":"HIGHLIGHTS: Tungsten mineralisation confirmed across entire 12km Glenburgh mineralised corridor within the mining lease. Elevated tungsten concentrations via routine ICP-MS analysis are observed closely associated with gold mineralisation across the entire system, particularly within higher-grade gold zones.Fusion digest re-assays have confirmed tungsten (WO3) in the following RC holes:79m at 4.4g/t gold* from 534m (25GLR023) containing internal (WO3) intervals of:26m at 0.24% WO35m at 0.11% WO344m at 4.6g/t gold* from 475m (25GLR070) containing internal WO3 interval of:17m at 0.09% WO325m at 10g/t gold* from 568m (26HZ002) associated with a broader WO3 interval of:33m at 0.1% WO3XRD and SEM analysis confirm tungsten occurs predominantly as coarse-grained scheelite and ferberite (iron rich wolframite)Preliminary field observations demonstrate coarse scheelite and ferberite mineralisation can produce visible tungsten-rich concentrates through simple hand panning techniques, supporting potential gravity recovery pathways. Formal tungsten metallurgical testwork has commenced alongside ongoing gold metallurgical studies at ALS MetallurgyGlenburgh drilling ramp-up and pre-development programs underway: Benz is ramping up to 12 RC shifts across Hurricane, Icon and Thunderbolt Camps, alongside advancing metallurgical, geotechnical and orebody knowledge programs, reflecting increasing confidence in Glenburgh emerging as a large-scale multi-million-ounce gold system Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 18, 2026) - Benz Mining Corp (ASX: BNZ) (TSXV: BZ) (\"Benz\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to provide an update on widespread tungsten mineralisation identified across the Glenburgh Gold System in Western Australia.Figure 1: UV fluorescent scheelite mineralisation observed in drill core from recently drilled diamond hole 26HZDD002 between 397.8 - 398.0m under ultraviolet light (assays pending). 0.1-0.5 % scheelite visually estimated in sample - see Table 3. Tungsten mineralisation confirmed in the Glenburgh Gold System has been confirmed through lithium borate fusion assays and reported in this release, together with XRD and SEM analysis. The fluorescence observed is illustrative of scheelite mineralisation identfied within the broader mineralised system.CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON VISUAL ESTIMATES OF MINERALISATION Referen...
