Latest Mergers And Acquisitions News

White Cliff Minerals has reported broad, bornite-dominant mineralisation in the first-ever drilling at Bornite Hills, but laboratory assays are still weeks away. The discovery adds a new target to the Rae Copper Project, alongside a sediment-hosted copper horizon now traced across a much larger area.

LE Minerals has amended its proposed $20 million sale of three Queensland graphite projects after ASX flagged promoter and classified-asset rules that could lock up consideration shares. The cash component may now range from $2 million to $5 million, while shareholder approvals and MBM’s proposed IPO remain key execution hurdles.

Sunshine Metals has upgraded the economics of its Liontown project, forecasting A$179.8 million in net operating cashflow after capital over a 66-month mine life. The study points to mid-2027 mining, but depends on approvals, Mt Moss commissioning and a preliminary plan carrying a plus or minus 30% accuracy range.

Telix will acquire ITM in a proposed US$1.65 billion deal that combines a commercial radioisotope supplier with Telix’s precision medicine and therapeutic pipeline. The transaction could give Telix greater supply-chain control and entry into a validated cancer treatment market, but it also brings dilution, integration risk and an unresolved FDA pathway for ITM-11.

Bellevue Gold will spend A$25-30 million on FY27 exploration after its Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve declined year on year, while a slower Barminco ramp-up is expected to cut September-quarter production by 3,000-4,000 ounces. High-grade Deacon North drilling and deeper targets offer a possible longer-term counterweight.

Catalyst Metals has converted the Cinnamon underground discovery into a maiden 232koz Ore Reserve, supporting a 7.5-year mine plan at the Plutonic Gold Belt. The deposit’s total Resource has grown 370% to 541koz, although part of the production target still relies on Inferred material.

Cobre has logged copper sulphide mineralisation in its first deep diamond hole at Sierra Atacama since 2021, extending the system below the existing operation. The result is encouraging but remains visual and preliminary, with laboratory assays due in October.

Megado Minerals has returned a shallow copper-silver intersection from the first hole of its maiden drilling campaign in northern Spain, including 0.25 metres at 1.39% copper and 18g/t silver. Two further holes have been completed but remain unassayed, leaving the broader size and continuity of the mineralisation unresolved.

New assays from Sinclair Gold’s Mt Henry project extend mineralisation beyond the current 1.8Moz resource at both Mt Henry and Selene. Five rigs are continuing step-out drilling, with 33 holes outside the resource footprint still awaiting assays.

Ramelius Resources has lifted its FY30 production outlook to as much as 610,000 ounces while committing up to A$570 million of growth capital in FY27. The plan puts a larger Mt Magnet processing hub at the centre of the company’s expansion, but also raises the execution and cost stakes.

Ingenia Communities has rejected Warburg Pincus’s revised $5.05 per stapled security proposal, saying the offer substantially undervalues the group. The board remains open to a higher-value approach, leaving the takeover discussion unresolved.

BPM Minerals has begun its first-ever drilling at the 6km Bonnie and Clyde gold-in-soil anomaly in Western Australia, launching a 10,000-metre campaign targeting possible Tropicana-style mineralisation. The exploration upside remains untested, with assays from Bonnie and Clyde and Beachcomber expected from late 2026 into early 2027.
