Latest Ore Sorting Technology News

Viking Mines reports assay results confirming TOMRA X-ray ore sorting can upgrade tungsten grades by up to 4.1 times and recoveries nearing 93% at its Nevada Linka Project.

OD6 Metals consolidates progress across its rare earths, copper, and fluorspar assets with strong resource bases and ongoing development activities in Nevada, Western Australia, and New South Wales.

Sky Metals releases a Pre-Feasibility Study confirming Tallebung's robust economics with a 7.3-year mine life, strong cashflows, and rapid capital payback, targeting mid-2028 production.

Viking Mines has uncovered significant tungsten mineralisation in historical rock stockpiles at its Linka Tungsten Project, Nevada, with assay results reaching 1.8% WO3, well above the historical mined average. The findings open the door to potential ore sorting applications and advance the project towards a brownfields restart.

Rapid Critical Metals has kicked off drilling at its Webbs Silver Project, expanded its NSW footprint with the Tooloom acquisition, and secured a key permit for gallium-germanium drilling in Canada, while metallurgical tests at Webbs and Consol show promising recoveries.

Alice Queen Limited’s Project Definition Study for the Horn Island Gold Project reveals robust economics with a pre-tax NPV of A$706 million and an IRR of 109%, underpinning plans for an 11-year mine life and a rapid 1.1-year capital payback.

Iltani Resources has unveiled striking high-grade silver-indium-lead-zinc intercepts from its latest drilling at the Orient Silver-Indium Project, reinforcing the scale and quality of Australia's largest known silver-indium deposit.

Iltani Resources has demonstrated significant grade upgrades and waste rejection in first-pass TOMRA ore sorting tests at its Orient Silver-Indium Project, advancing plans for bulk testing and potential cost savings.

Sky Metals has unveiled a significant Mineral Resource Estimate upgrade for its Tallebung project, lifting tin and tungsten inventories substantially and introducing a maiden silver resource. This positions Tallebung as a large-scale, shallow open-pit opportunity with promising metallurgical and development prospects.

Ore Resources has accelerated its lithium exploration and development at Coolgardie with diamond and RC drilling programs, alongside advancing economic studies and permitting efforts.

Prodigy Gold has won a $112,152 co-funding grant from the Northern Territory Government to drill a 600m hole at its Hyperion Gold Deposit, targeting a major untested geophysical anomaly that could expand the 454,000-ounce resource.

Viking Mines reports a major metallurgical breakthrough at its Linka Tungsten Project, achieving a 62.5% WO3 concentrate at 59.8% recovery using combined gravity and flotation processing on a larger 10 kg sample, significantly improving previous results and validating a low-capex flowsheet ahead of maiden drilling.
