The company is gearing up for multi-reactor operation at its Texas campus, underpinned by long-term agreements with Indium Corporation and Glencore.

Rare earths, lithium and antimony stocks drove the week, while a handful of capital raisings and profit warnings hit hard. The biggest gains came from drilling wins and deal news. The sharpest falls came where investors faced dilution, weaker earnings or takeover friction.

Critical minerals and gold explorers drove the biggest moves, with OD6 Metals, Jindalee Lithium and Resolution Minerals leading the weekly board.
