Latest Rare Earth Projects News

AuKing Mining has wrapped up a drone-based magnetics and LiDAR survey across its Tundulu rare earths project, setting the stage for a drilling campaign targeted for May. The high-resolution data aims to sharpen drill targeting within the 5km carbonatite complex.

Brazilian Critical Minerals (ASX: BCM) has boosted the indicated mineral resource at its Ema rare earth project by 58%, now totalling 1.07 billion tonnes at 732 ppm TREO. This positions Ema as one of the world’s largest ionic clay rare earth deposits and the only ISR-ready project in the western world.

Lindian Resources has locked in a US$11.6 million financing package from Malawi's NBS Bank, bolstering the Kangankunde Rare Earths Project with asset-backed and working capital facilities. This deal complements Lindian’s recent A$100 million placement and underscores its commitment to local partnerships.

OD6 Metals has secured a strategic foothold in the US critical minerals market by acquiring the Quinn Fluorspar Project in Nevada, delivering ultra-high-grade assay results and commencing systematic exploration. Meanwhile, metallurgical progress at its Splinter Rock rare earths project and new copper targets at Gulf Creek underpin a diversified critical minerals portfolio.

Bayan Mining has pinpointed two high-priority exploration targets at its 100% owned Bayan Springs North Project in Nevada, leveraging newly interpreted USGS airborne magnetic and radiometric data. Both targets display promising geophysical and geochemical signatures reminiscent of the adjacent Maverick Springs mineral system.

Critical Metals Corp has consolidated its stake in the Tanbreez Rare Earths Project, gaining government approval to increase ownership to 92.5%, while European Lithium retains a 7.5% interest. This clearance removes a key hurdle, enabling the project’s development to accelerate.

Lindian Resources has secured a fixed-price diesel supply agreement for the Kangankunde Rare Earths Project, removing fuel cost uncertainty through construction and commissioning and reinforcing the project’s low-cost profile.

AuKing Mining has agreed to acquire the Tundulu Rare Earths Project in Malawi, a large and under-explored carbonatite complex with strong historical drilling results. The acquisition is supported by a $3 million capital raise to fund exploration and drilling activities.

Omnia Metals has appointed Graham Peterson as Senior Geologist to drive exploration and resource definition at its key US critical minerals projects, leveraging his extensive North American experience and cross-jurisdictional insights.

Omnia Metals has made a decisive entry into the US critical minerals market by acquiring the Stibnite Ridge antimony and silver project and staking the Radix rare earth and gallium project in Montana, backed by a $1.5 million capital raise.

Magnum Mining names Antonio Vitor Junior as Managing Director to spearhead major drilling campaigns at its Azimuth and Parker projects, aiming to convert promising early rare earth results into a formal resource.

Critica Limited has achieved a significant breakthrough at its Jupiter Rare Earth Project, lifting magnet rare earth recovery to approximately 81% and total rare earth oxide recovery to around 71% through pilot plant optimisation. This advance strengthens the foundation for its ongoing scoping study and downstream processing plans.
