11:58am on Saturday 14th of February, 2026 AEDT
Key Points
TechGen Metals (ASX:TG1) jumped after locking up new ground next to its existing WA project, with historic copper hits putting drilling back on the agenda.
Critical Resources (ASX:CRR) surged on a new gold–antimony–silver story in NSW, helped by very high silver grades investors could quickly understand.
Great Boulder (ASX:GBR) climbed after deeper gold hits pointed to extra ounces below an already large resource.
Deal-making stayed busy, from Bannerman’s Etango uranium joint venture funding plan to the Aeris–Peel copper consolidation.
