Latest Niobium Resources News

Dreadnought Resources has identified multiple strong gold-in-soil anomalies spanning a 20-kilometre strike at its Mangaroon Gold Project, marking the first modern gold exploration in this historically overlooked area.

Dreadnought Resources has identified a substantial 15-kilometre gold-in-soil anomaly along the Minga Bar shear at its Mangaroon Gold Project, extending known mineralisation zones and setting the stage for targeted drilling by early 2027.

St George Mining has delivered a major upgrade to its Araxá Project in Brazil, increasing measured and indicated resources by 155% and confirming the world's largest undeveloped niobium resource alongside rare earths.

Encounter Resources has significantly extended the shallow, high-grade niobium mineralisation at its Emily deposit and confirmed thick, high-grade zones at Green within the Aileron Project. A 70,000m drilling campaign is underway, underpinning resource growth and development plans.

WA1 Resources has bolstered its Luni Niobium Project’s Indicated Mineral Resource by 20 million tonnes and reported promising beneficiation testwork, setting the stage for its Pre-Feasibility Study due in Q4 2026.

St George Mining has delivered its most impressive drill results yet at the Araxá Rare Earths and Niobium Project, revealing a new record intercept of 207 metres of continuous high-grade mineralisation from surface. These findings bolster the case for a straightforward open-pit operation and reinforce Araxá’s status as South America’s largest, highest-grade carbonatite-hosted rare earth resource.

Encounter Resources has lifted its Aileron niobium resource by over half, hitting 120 million tonnes with robust metallurgical results, while advancing copper-gold drilling in WA and the NT.

Encounter Resources has kicked off a 3,500-metre dual drilling campaign at its Yeneena Copper Project, aiming to extend known high-grade copper mineralisation along the Parbo system and complete a diamond hole at Haddon. Results are due in August 2026.

Dreadnought Resources has identified a growing gold anomaly exceeding 7km strike at its Illaara Gold Project, with shallow mineralisation and strong orogenic pathfinder elements prompting immediate infill drilling plans.

Encounter Resources is aggressively advancing its Aileron niobium project in Western Australia with a comprehensive 70,000-metre drilling campaign and a Mining Lease application, underpinning its push toward development.

Encounter Resources inks a non-binding MoU with Echion Technologies and Switch Technologies to develop a lithium-niobium battery industry leveraging its high-grade Aileron niobium resource.

Encounter Resources has identified a new copper zone at its Elsa prospect in Western Australia's Paterson Province, prompting an expansion of its drilling program to better delineate the breccia system.
