Charger Metals has extended spodumene mineralisation at its Medcalf deposit to 700 metres depth, prompting a pending resource upgrade beyond the maiden 8.2Mt @ 1.0% Li2O estimate.

Hawk Resources has clinched a Mineral Exploration Agreement with Ngaanyatjarrra Traditional Owners for its Olympus Scandium Project, clearing a key hurdle ahead of planned Q2 2026 exploration. Historical data points to a significant scandium anomaly that could define a new province in Western Australia.

Hammer Metals has kicked off a Reverse Circulation drilling campaign at its Mount Isa Kalman project, aiming to upgrade inferred copper-gold resources and expand near-surface mineralisation. The program supports an upcoming Scoping Study and reflects optimism due to recent strength in copper, molybdenum, and rhenium prices.

Infinity Metals continues to push forward with exploration in Australia while awaiting critical mining licence feedback for its San Jose Lithium Project in Spain amid regional government delays.

Terrain Minerals has completed a critical four-hole diamond drilling program at its Lightning Gold Project, securing key structural and density data that de-risks the upcoming maiden Mineral Resource Estimate scheduled for July 2026. The results confirm continuity of high-grade gold mineralisation, underpinning the project's transition from exploration to resource definition.

Kingfisher Mining has resumed reverse circulation drilling at its Copper Blow project near Broken Hill, targeting extensions of high-grade copper-gold mineralisation to support a maiden resource estimate. The program follows a strategic processing agreement with Broken Hill Mines, underpinning development plans.

Hastings Technology Metals has secured a critical supply of African monazite concentrate to fuel its newly acquired hydromet plant in Thailand, aiming to start production by Q4 2026. This move positions Hastings closer to generating operational cash flow while expanding rare earths supply capacity.

Victory Metals has announced a significant metallurgical breakthrough at its North Stanmore project, achieving over 70% extraction of critical heavy rare earths using a low-cost, low-complexity process. This advancement promises a faster, simpler path to market, setting the company apart in the competitive rare earths sector.

Red Mountain Mining has identified five promising antimony drill targets at its Armidale project in NSW, revealing a significant 3km mineralised system. Drilling is set to begin next quarter, with metallurgical results expected soon.

Cannindah Resources has kicked off a 10,000-metre diamond drilling campaign at its Southern Porphyry Target, aiming to confirm a significant copper-gold system beneath Mt Cannindah. This ambitious program could redefine the company’s resource base and growth trajectory.

Paterson Resources has reported impressive shallow gold intercepts at its Grace Gold-Copper Project, setting the stage for a significant resource upgrade and the next phase of drilling.

Carnaby Resources has reported exceptional high-grade copper-gold drill results from the Trek 1 extension at its Greater Duchess Project, revealing significant down-plunge continuity that promises to boost the project’s mineral inventory.
