Metallium has completed a 12-hour campaign using three Flash Joule Heating reactors to process platinum-group-metal-bearing catalytic converter material under reactive chlorination conditions. The milestone advances the company’s scale-up program, but recovery results, product economics and feedstock grades remain unverified.

ClearVue Technologies reported just A$108,484 of FY2026 revenue against an A$11.86 million loss, while consuming A$8.69 million in operating cash. The solar-glazing developer says certifications, international partners and an 80-project pipeline have strengthened its platform, but the next test is converting those assets into cash revenue.

Eden Innovations has transformed its balance sheet, cutting interest-bearing liabilities from $16.97 million to negligible levels after year-end. But revenue fell 19%, the Group remained deeply loss-making and its auditor flagged a material uncertainty over going concern.

Pure One Corporation Limited (ASX:P1E) reported FY26 net profit after tax of A$5.070 million, alongside A$7.191 million in cash and term deposits. The company is positioning battery-swappable heavy vehicles and electric vans as its growth engine, while retaining sizeable interests in gas and clean-energy ventures.

Metallium has moved Flash Joule Heating from tiny laboratory tests to multi-reactor campaigns in Texas, backed by feedstock contracts, offtake and A$125 million raised during FY2026. Yet the ASX-listed group remains pre-revenue, lost A$42.8 million and says continued access to funding is a material uncertainty.

Pivotal Metals’ maiden scoping study gives its Horden Lake copper project a projected post-tax NPV of A$920 million against A$411 million of pre-production capital. The headline returns are strong, but the project remains a preliminary study with no Ore Reserve, material Inferred Resource exposure and more than A$400 million still to raise.

ClearVue Technologies and LandVac have begun the first real-world deployment of their jointly developed photovoltaic glazing at a Macau hotel. The side-by-side test will measure power generation, thermal performance and cooling demand against legacy single glazing, giving the project its first operating data outside development conditions.

Metals Australia has reported a 50 Mt graphite resource, a maiden 21.51 Mt probable ore reserve and strong study-stage economics for its Quebec project. The opportunity is substantial, but the company ended the year with just AUD 3.73 million in cash and no mining revenue.

Zeotech Limited (ASX:ZEO) is moving Toondoon toward its first direct-shipping kaolin export after securing a potential A$200 million offtake agreement, while AusPozz™ and zeoteCH₄® produce encouraging trial results. The progress came alongside an A$8.15 million FY26 loss, negative operating cash flow and an acknowledgement that further funding may be required.

Lithium Universe has secured selection for a proposed four-year Industry PhD project with Macquarie University and CSIRO to develop microwave-assisted recycling of end-of-life solar panels. The collaboration could strengthen the company’s technology pathway, but its grant, agreement and commercial outcomes remain unconfirmed.

Environmental Clean Technologies says its proposed Xenica acquisition has gained a defence-market sublicence for MXenes, adding a potential route to customers for its Flash Joule Heating platform. The agreement is not a customer contract, and revenue still depends on acquisition completion, repeatable production and qualification.

Dotz Nano has secured a two-year supply agreement with Finnish direct-air-capture company Soletair Power, giving its carbon-capture sorbent a defined commercial customer and a contract value of EUR600,000. The deal is an important validation step, although the announcement does not disclose volumes, margins or delivery schedules.
