Latest Rare Earth Elements News

Axel REE Limited has achieved a key operational milestone in its in situ recovery (ISR) development at the Woolrich deposit within the Caladão Project, confirming strong rare earth element leach performance under low-impact magnesium sulphate conditions.

AuKing Mining has agreed to acquire the Tundulu Rare Earths Project in Malawi, a large and under-explored carbonatite complex with strong historical drilling results. The acquisition is supported by a $3 million capital raise to fund exploration and drilling activities.

Axel REE is accelerating its in situ recovery (ISR) mining trials at the Caladão Project in Brazil, targeting rare earth elements and gallium extraction through a low-cost, environmentally friendly method. The company is fully funded for pilot wellfield trials at the Woolrich deposit, with expansion potential at Paraíso and Tiger Creek.

European Resources Limited has more than doubled the inferred resource at its Korsnäs rare earth elements project in Finland to 15.4 million tonnes at 1.00% total rare earth oxides, driven by new drilling, re-assaying of historical core, and a refined geological model.

Core Energy Minerals (ASX:CR3) has revealed significant rare earth element mineralisation at its Cummins Project in South Australia, highlighting broad zones of high-grade TREO with promising magnet rare earth oxide ratios and potential for in-situ recovery mining.

Marquee Resources (ASX:MQR) has secured a non-exclusive R&D patent licence with Oak Ridge National Laboratory, granting access to NEAREST technology tailored for clay-rich rare earth deposits like Redlings in WA. This partnership could reshape processing efficiency and environmental impact for Marquee’s significant inferred resource.

Magnum Mining names Antonio Vitor Junior as Managing Director to spearhead major drilling campaigns at its Azimuth and Parker projects, aiming to convert promising early rare earth results into a formal resource.

Aldoro Resources has confirmed a major mineralisation extension at its Kameelburg deposit in Namibia, with drill hole DD004E intersecting 387.2 meters of continuous rare earth elements, strontium, niobium, and molybdenum. The Phase II drilling program is complete, setting the stage for bulk sampling.

European Resources Limited (ASX: ERE) has repriced and relaunched a renounceable rights issue to raise up to $3.4 million, partially underwritten by Mahe Capital for $1.5 million, to fund metallurgical and exploration work at its Korsnäs rare earth project in Finland and Slovakian tenements.

Axel REE has selected its Woolrich ISR Deposit in Brazil for its first in situ recovery (ISR) rare earth elements field trial, aiming to validate low-cost extraction and downstream processing of mixed rare earth carbonate products.

Magnum Mining and Exploration Limited has initiated a large-scale auger drilling program at its Piracanjuba prospect within the Azimuth Rare Earth Element Project in Brazil, aiming to define an Exploration Target and a JORC Mineral Resource Estimate by late 2026.

Locksley Resources has initiated a four-hole diamond drilling program at its El Campo Rare Earth Element Prospect within the Mojave Project, aiming to test high-grade mineralisation continuity near a major US REE mine.
