Tyranna Resources has signed a binding earn-in agreement covering the 830 km² Coola Rare Earths and Niobium Project in Angola, with two carbonatite-bearing intrusions already mapped. The deal remains conditional on renewal of the project tenement, while a proposed 500 million-option grant adds a significant shareholder-approval question.

LinQ Minerals finished its first full year as an ASX-listed explorer with $16.23 million in cash after spending heavily on Gilmore drilling and raising $15.4 million.
