Latest Qmines (ASX:QML) News

QMines Limited reported standout copper and gold assay results from two diamond drill holes at Mt Chalmers, surpassing existing resource grades and fueling ongoing feasibility and metallurgical work.

Materials shares delivered another strong week, led by a 60.61% rise at iTech Minerals and major gains across gold, copper and critical minerals.
Investors rewarded fresh drilling results, larger mineral resources, project approvals and new supply agreements, although several heavily sold stocks showed that early buying did not always last.

QMines Limited has boosted the Mount Mackenzie gold and silver resource by 32% in gold ounces, with 70% now classified as Indicated, following a comprehensive 73-hole drilling campaign that enhanced geological confidence and resource scale.

QMines Limited has locked in a $15 million strategic funding package with QIC to fully finance its Mt Chalmers Definitive Feasibility Study, while completing a substantial drilling campaign at Mount Mackenzie and launching a major 10,000m drill program at Mt Chalmers.

Big moves came from small and mid-cap names tied to drilling, project studies and fresh funding. Healthcare, mining and takeover stocks all had a busy week, but not every strong announcement held its gains.

A handful of small-cap names posted big weekly swings, but the bigger story was a flood of new studies, resource upgrades and funding deals across gold, rare earths and battery materials. Investors chased scale and near-term production, while several raisings and gap-down reopenings showed how quickly early enthusiasm can fade.

QMines Limited wraps up its extensive Mount Mackenzie drilling campaign, confirming deeper and structurally complex high-grade gold zones and advancing resource estimation at North Knoll Core.

Battery tech, biotech and balance-sheet repair drove the biggest gains this week, while guidance cuts and weak post-halt trading hurt several names. Deal-making and fresh equity funding stayed busy, especially in rare earths, defence and gold.

Coal, gold and critical minerals names drove the biggest share moves this week, but strong project news did not always lead to lasting gains. Several stocks jumped on funding, deals and study results, while others gave back early gains as traders locked in profit or worried about dilution.

QMines Limited has converted $1 million of convertible notes to equity, becoming debt free and clearing the way for a $15 million strategic investment by QIC's Critical Minerals Fund, positioning it to advance its Mt Chalmers copper-gold project.

Big moves came from deal-driven small caps, critical minerals stories and a fresh burst of funding news across gold, copper and rare earths. The strongest gains came where cash, contracts or takeover terms gave investors something concrete to price in straight away.

QMines Limited reported a busy March quarter with strong drilling results at Mount Mackenzie, a resource upgrade at Develin Creek, and progress on the Mt Chalmers feasibility study, underpinned by a $15 million strategic funding package from QIC.
