Golden Horse Minerals has expanded the Hopes Hill gold system at Southern Cross to over 3 kilometres of strike, delivering multiple high-grade intercepts and advancing towards its inaugural Mineral Resource Estimate. Regional and copper project exploration also shows promising prospects.

Enova Mining's latest drilling at Charley Creek in the Northern Territory has validated multiple thick zones of rare earth mineralisation hosted in saprolite, with assays hitting up to 8,218ppm TREO and strong neodymium-praseodymium ratios.

West Cobar Metals is gearing up for near-term drilling at its Cobar West copper project in NSW and high-grade scandium zones at the Salazar project in WA, aiming to unlock significant resource potential across both.

GBM Resources has reported significant extensions and grade improvements at its Twin Hills Gold Project, with Stage 2 drilling revealing mineralisation beyond the existing 1.0Moz resource and identifying over 20 new exploration targets.

Power Minerals has completed two drill holes and is progressing a third in its maiden diamond drilling program at the Morro do Ferro Rare Earths Project in Brazil, with excellent core recovery and assay results expected soon.

Iondrive appoints ex-BHP innovation chief Dr Grant Caffery as CEO, signalling a pivot from development to commercial scale-up following strong rare earth recovery results and a US$15 million Oklahoma funding pathway.

Heavy Rare Earths Limited reveals significant heavy rare earth oxide mineralisation at its Subron project, with a peak HREO ratio of 70% and multiple high-grade domains identified within a 159Mt JORC resource.

Connected Minerals is set to acquire Frontier Group, gaining control of an 80% stake in the high-grade Bailundo carbonatite project in Angola, backed by a $4.5 million capital raise and planned drilling.

Lion Rock Minerals has launched a significant drilling campaign targeting a large monazite-rich rare earth system at its Minta Est tenement, complementing its expanding rutile discoveries. The 118-hole program aims to validate high-grade shallow mineralisation with assay results expected in August 2026.

Gold Mountain’s latest metallurgical tests from its Capivara Prospect in Brazil reveal promising ionic adsorption clay rare earth mineralisation, with extraction rates nearing 66%. New targets at Irajuba add to the project’s expanding footprint.
