Latest Rare Earth Projects News

American Rare Earths has reported broad, near-surface rare earth mineralisation from the first six holes of its 2026 feasibility drilling program in Wyoming. The results are encouraging for geological continuity, but they cover only part of the program and do not yet represent a new resource estimate.

Dateline Resources has filed a US court motion seeking to suspend the injunction blocking work at its Colosseum Gold and Rare Earth Project in California. The application opens a route towards resumed operations, but does not itself lift the court order.

AuKing Mining has reported a 50-metre interval grading 2.03% TREO from surface at its Tundulu rare earths project in Malawi. The result, from drilling about 400 metres west of earlier holes, supports a broader near-surface mineralised footprint but remains exploration-stage evidence.

Bayan Mining and Minerals has begun a third phase of surface sampling at its Bayan Springs South gold project in Nevada, extending an open southern anomaly and testing a previously unsampled northern fault intersection. The work is intended to sharpen drill targets, while assays from the company’s completed Desert Star RC program are expected in October 2026.

Magnum Mining has completed more than 10,000 metres of drilling at its Piracanjuba North rare earths project in Brazil and is shifting its main effort to the 32.5km² Plateau Zone. A further 2,000-metre diamond drilling phase will run alongside independent resource, radiological and metallurgical studies, although delayed assay turnaround creates a risk to the company’s November timetable.

ABx Group has locked in approximately $4.1 million through a placement and fully underwritten share purchase plan, with strategic partner Good Importing International committing $1 million. The funding will support the Deep Leads rare earths project and construction and commissioning of the ALCORE pilot plant, but comes with substantial new equity and options.

Red Metal’s Sybella project has moved closer to a development decision after heap-leach testing delivered strong rare earth extractions with low impurity levels. The company also reported a $19.17 million FY2026 profit, although most of that result came from the accounting gain tied to its Maronan Metals restructuring.

Empire Resources has identified rare earth oxide and phosphate mineralisation across three Yuinmery prospects, with new archived-drilling results reaching 1,712.5ppm TREO+Y. The early-stage opportunity now depends on additional assays, follow-up drilling and proof that the material can be upgraded economically.

MRG Metals says grid hand-auger drilling has outlined a visually mineralised 1.6 square kilometre footprint at its Adriano rare earths project in Mozambique. The result expands the exploration picture, but laboratory assays are still pending and no Mineral Resource has yet been established.

AuKing Mining has approved planning for an approximately 1,000-metre diamond hole at its Tundulu Rare Earths Project in Malawi. The hole will test the depth of the carbonatite system at Nathace Hill after strong initial RC results and two deep diamond intersections.

ABx Group and its ALCORE subsidiary have received nearly $600,000 in R&D tax offsets, while ALCORE has completed repayment of $2.61 million in unused government grant funds. The company is now awaiting a decision on a separate Industry Growth Program application worth up to $5 million.

Victory Metals has secured a 2,006-hectare mining lease for its North Stanmore heavy rare earths project in Western Australia. The grant removes a key tenure hurdle, but technical studies, approvals, offtake agreements and financing still stand between the project and a development decision.
