Liontown Limited delivered its strongest financial quarter since production began, achieving a self-funded quarter with a $33 million cash boost and surpassing underground mining targets ahead of schedule, while maintaining FY2026 guidance amid robust lithium market conditions.

Liontown Limited has kicked off early works and long-lead procurement for its Kathleen Valley lithium expansion, ahead of a Final Investment Decision expected by March 2027.

A single biotech result reset expectations in minutes, while gold and critical minerals kept investors busy on deals, drilling and funding. The week’s biggest moves came from one trial being stopped, a miner losing altitude after heavy selling, and a U.S. tungsten stock hit hard on risk-off trading.

Gold names split cleanly this week: one stock rocketed on tangible production progress, while another cratered as selling overwhelmed a big plan. Critical minerals kept drawing attention, but several gap-ups didn’t hold once early buyers took profits.

Liontown Limited has reported a 70% surge in lithium concentrate production and doubled revenue to $207.5 million in the half-year ending December 2025, completing its transition to 100% underground mining and resetting its balance sheet.
