Latest Rare Earths News

Enova Mining has secured an exclusive 30-day option over a large Brazilian monazite project while lining up almost $2 million in funding. The opportunity remains conditional on due diligence, shareholder approval and Enova’s decision to exercise the option.

Livium has completed its Share Purchase Plan after receiving A$794,280 in valid applications, including A$80,000 from its board. The capital raising will add 96.9 million shares to the register, with trading expected to begin on 21 September.

Deep Yellow reported a A$13.3 million FY2026 profit and moved its Tumas uranium project closer to a targeted fourth-quarter investment decision. The company remains debt free, but acknowledges it will need external capital to fund construction.

Basin Energy has secured a three-year research collaboration with James Cook University to investigate improved extraction and recovery of heavy rare earths at its Sybella-Barkly project. The deal carries no cash payment, but JCU will own the resulting project intellectual property and data.

Kaili Resources has reported a peak one-metre assay of 1,125.51 ppm total rare earth oxides from shallow aircore drilling at its Coodalya tenement in South Australia. The result adds to an emerging zone of elevated values, but the early-stage program has not yet established continuity, scale or economic significance.

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.

Australian Rare Earths has extended its Overland carbonatite discovery roughly 5km south, with hole OV176 intersecting 130 metres of interpreted carbonatite and ending within the unit. The geological footprint now appears to track a 10km magnetic corridor, but assays will determine whether the system carries meaningful niobium and rare earth grades.

Gold Mountain has returned thick, shallow rare earth intersections at Capivara, including 8 metres at 1,513 ppm TREO, while several auger holes ended near mineralisation. The company now plans deeper drilling to determine whether the strongest results continue through the saprolite profile.

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.

AuKing Mining has reported wide, high-grade rare earth intersections from maiden RC drilling at its Tundulu project in Malawi, including 91 metres at 1.51% TREO. The results also reveal unusually strong heavy rare earth enrichment and have prompted the company to fast-track a maiden resource estimate targeted before the end of 2026.
