Latest Tivan (ASX:TVN) News

Tivan has produced 195 kg of acidgrade fluorspar at 98.6% CaF2 from its Speewah mini-pilot, exceeding the 97% market standard and setting the stage for a full pilot and offtake negotiations.

Small-cap materials stocks swung hard as fresh funding, mine build decisions and standout drill hits drove the week’s biggest moves. Gold, lithium, rare earths and tungsten names all drew buying, while a few raisings and weak follow-through after trading halts kept losses sharp.

Tivan Limited’s regional stream sediment sampling at Turiscai reveals highly anomalous copper and gold grades, alongside key pathfinder elements, advancing the project towards maiden drilling.

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.

Tivan Limited has formalised binding joint venture agreements with Timor-Leste’s state-owned Murak Rai Timor to develop the Baucau and Ossu copper-gold projects, targeting maiden drilling at Ossu in late 2026.

Tivan Limited has added Major Michael Stone (Retd) to its Technical Advisory Group, leveraging his 25 years of Timor-Leste expertise to boost local engagement and strategic guidance for its copper-gold projects. This move bolsters Tivan’s in-country capabilities as it advances its Turiscai, Baucau, and Ossu exploration portfolio.

Speculative resources names drove the biggest moves this week, with Patriot Resources, Brazilian Critical Minerals and Rent.com.au leading the gainers. At the other end, Qoria, SQX Resources and 4DMedical fell hard as capital raisings, weak follow-through and post-gap selling hit sentiment.

Silver, rare earths and select critical minerals led this week’s winners, while lithium names and several larger producers slipped despite busy news flow. Big resource upgrades, fresh funding and cleaner processing routes drew buyers, but many early gaps failed to hold.

Tivan Limited has delivered a pivotal feasibility study for its Speewah Fluorite Project, secured tranche funding totalling $16.3 million, and gained recognition from Japan and US governments as a key fluorite supplier. Concurrently, it expanded its portfolio with acquisitions and high-grade discoveries across tungsten and copper-gold projects.

Tivan Limited has confirmed its Speewah Fluorite Project can produce premium acidgrade fluorspar suitable for hydrofluoric acid, backed by positive technical assessments from Asian end-users. The company is advancing pilot production and finalising offtake agreements with Sumitomo Corporation and JOGMEC.

Tivan and Sumitomo Corporation have extended their Memorandum of Understanding for the Molyhil Tungsten Project to June 2026, allowing Tivan to complete a Scoping Study and progress joint venture negotiations. Drilling has commenced to expand the resource base, with product marketing underway targeting Q3 2026 delivery.
