Bayan Mining and Minerals has begun a third phase of surface sampling at its Bayan Springs South gold project in Nevada, extending an open southern anomaly and testing a previously unsampled northern fault intersection. The work is intended to sharpen drill targets, while assays from the company’s completed Desert Star RC program are expected in October 2026.

American Tungsten & Antimony has produced antimony ingot from Arizona-mined material at its Nevada refinery, providing the first physical demonstration of its proposed US mine-to-metal chain. The milestone creates samples for testing and customer qualification, but the underlying asset acquisition remains incomplete and product quality is yet to be disclosed.

Altitude Minerals has lodged a prospectus for a non-renounceable $1.49 million entitlement offer, but warns the issue is ununderwritten and highly unlikely to be fully subscribed. The company is seeking up to $2.6 million in total funding for Nevada drilling, business development and working capital.

Altitude Minerals has secured a $1.215 million placement and plans a further $1.487 million rights issue to fund drilling at its Nevada gold-silver projects. The raising offers free options, but shareholders who do not participate in the non-renounceable offer face dilution.

Viking Mines has identified several wide zones of visually confirmed scheelite in ongoing RC drilling at its Linka tungsten project in Nevada, including 22 metres across a 24-metre horizon. The encouraging visual results remain unassayed, leaving laboratory results as the next critical test of grade and continuity.

OD6 Metals has identified high-grade fluorspar at North Horseshoe Canyon in Nevada, with selective rock-chip assays reaching 60% CaF2. The results expand an interpreted 1.5-kilometre target corridor linking the Horseshoe and Big Jim areas, but drilling is still needed to establish continuity, thickness and scale.

Fulcrum Lithium has promoted Chief Operating Officer Scott Keenan to Managing Director, placing the executive who led its Alkali Flats discovery in charge of the company’s next project phase. The appointment comes with a $360,000 annual salary and a proposed 4 million performance-rights package subject to shareholder approval.

Minerals 260 has secured $250 million from institutional and sophisticated investors to advance its 6.2Moz Bullabulling Gold Project, with Franco-Nevada committing $30 million as a cornerstone investor.

Orezone Gold has outlined a 14-year plan for its newly acquired Casa Berardi mine, targeting 1.63 million ounces of production and an after-tax NPV of US$1.05 billion. The economics are substantial, but the plan remains a preliminary assessment built partly on Inferred Resources and requires significant capital and permitting work.

American Tungsten & Antimony has started an ahead-of-schedule campaign to produce antimony flake at its Del Sol refinery in Nevada, using material from Arizona. The first physical demonstration of its proposed US mine-to-metal chain could generate samples for customer qualification and government discussions, although the underlying asset acquisition remains incomplete.

Infratil has raised FY27 earnings guidance as data-centre demand accelerates across CDC and Longroad, with AI infrastructure now representing 73% of its NZ$22 billion asset base. The company is also sharpening its strategy around scaled growth platforms, contracted cash flows and selective new investments.

OD6 Metals has submitted a Plan of Operations covering up to 139 drill pads and bulk sampling at its Quinn Fluorspar Project in Nevada. The application moves the project towards its first systematic drilling campaign, but approval from the U.S. Forest Service remains outstanding.
