Lithium Universe (ASX: LU7) has completed the detailed process flow sheet for a novel hydrometallurgical technology licensed from the University of Edinburgh to extract gold and copper from electronic waste. The low-temperature, reagent-recycling method aims to disrupt traditional smelting with environmental and cost benefits.

Lithium Universe (ASX: LU7) has demonstrated near-complete recovery of gold and copper from electronic waste using a novel, low-temperature hydrometallurgical process developed by the University of Edinburgh. This breakthrough supports its push into sustainable metal recycling and lithium supply chain projects.

Austral Resources is advancing its Rocklands Copper Project refurbishment with major milestones met, including securing a new SAG mill and confirming infrastructure readiness for 3Mtpa processing, keeping the project on track and budget.

Lithium Universe (ASX: LU7) has launched a detailed development program to commercialise a novel hydrometallurgical process for extracting gold and copper from electronic waste, aiming to disrupt traditional smelting with a more sustainable, low-energy method.

Final assays from drillhole 26LHDD073 at the Southern Porphyry target within the Llahuin Project Joint Venture validate a broad copper-gold-molybdenum mineralised system. Integration of geological and geophysical data aims to pinpoint the higher-grade core ahead of Phase II drilling.

White Cliff Minerals has extended copper mineralisation at its Rae Copper Project in Nunavut to over 5.4km, with visible sulphides in every hole across 2.6km of strike from its 2026 drilling campaign. Assays reveal multiple high-grade intervals, underscoring the project's scale and continuity.

White Cliff Minerals has landed a CAD$250,000 exploration grant from Nunavut’s government to fund a 6,000m drilling campaign at the Danvers deposit, reinforcing the Rae Copper Project’s potential in a Tier-1 mining jurisdiction.

GR Engineering Services has been appointed preferred contractor for Ora Banda's $233 million Davyhurst Expansion Project, marking a major EPC win in WA's gold sector.

Maronan Metals has reported robust assay results from its 2025 infill drilling, revealing significant shallow copper-gold and silver-lead mineralisation that could boost early mining inventory. A revised boxcut design also promises to cut excavation volumes substantially.

White Cliff Minerals has visually confirmed copper sulphides over a 1.8 km strike at its Danvers copper project, doubling the known mineralised footprint and intersecting thick chalcocite-rich zones within a major geophysical anomaly.

Podium Minerals has delivered strong assay results from 17 metallurgical drill holes at its Parks Reef project, confirming geological models and revealing significant high-grade platinum group metal intercepts.

Tennant Minerals has delivered a standout diamond drilling result at its Bluebird copper-gold-bismuth discovery, extending high-grade mineralisation and highlighting bismuth’s rising strategic value.
