Resolution Minerals has produced a high-purity antimony trioxide intermediate from its Antimony Ridge project using conventional pyrometallurgy, while hydrometallurgical tests progress. The project benefits from US FAST-41 permitting, aiming to establish a local processing hub for critical metals in Idaho.

Legacy Iron Ore has boosted its Mt Celia gold resource by over half, now holding 390,150 ounces, underpinning its ongoing heap leach pre-feasibility study and signaling potential for further growth.

European Resources Limited (ASX: ERE) has repriced and relaunched a renounceable rights issue to raise up to $3.4 million, partially underwritten by Mahe Capital for $1.5 million, to fund metallurgical and exploration work at its Korsnäs rare earth project in Finland and Slovakian tenements.

Rimfire Pacific Mining has boosted its Murga Scandium Deposit resource by 300%, lifting the inferred mineral resource to 56.1 million tonnes at 138ppm scandium. The deposit’s low iron content hints at potential cost savings via atmospheric leaching, with follow-up drilling and metallurgical tests slated for mid-2026.

Dreadnought Resources has reported new drilling results from its Stinger critical metals deposit, expanding high-grade niobium, rare earth, and scandium mineralisation. Metallurgical studies suggest commercial potential, with an updated JORC Exploration Target due in May 2026.

Resolution Minerals Ltd reports significant 3D modelling results at its Antimony Ridge Mine Project in Idaho, revealing over 100 high-grade antimony-silver veins over a large area. The project has secured FAST-41 status to accelerate permitting and development.

Kingsland Minerals has announced breakthrough metallurgical test results from its Leliyn Graphite Project, revealing gallium recoveries up to 94%. The critical metal’s extraction potential could enhance project economics, with plans to establish a maiden gallium JORC Resource in 2026.

Enova Mining Ltd (ASX: ENV) has reported further high-grade rare earth element (REE) intercepts from its maiden diamond drilling program at the East Salinas project in Brazil, confirming significant ionic adsorption clay (IAC) mineralisation within saprolite overlying the Medina Intrusive Granite Complex.

Resolution Minerals Ltd has secured FAST-41 status for its Antimony Ridge project in Idaho, a designation expected to accelerate permitting and development of this critical minerals asset. The move supports the company's integrated U.S. strategy for antimony, tungsten, and gold, enhancing investor visibility and strategic engagement.

Mount Ridley Mines Limited has validated its heavy rare earth element resource through historical metallurgical testwork showing recoveries up to 86.5% across the Grass Patch Complex. The results underpin ongoing development efforts and metallurgical optimisation plans.

G50 Corp Limited reports encouraging metallurgical test results from its Golconda Project in Arizona, demonstrating the ability to concentrate gallium using established, cost-effective processing techniques. The findings support the potential for a strategic domestic gallium supply integrated with precious metals production.

Many Peaks Minerals has reported significant high-grade gold intercepts from recent diamond drilling at its Ferké project in Côte d’Ivoire, advancing towards a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate planned for early 2026.
