Latest Scandium News

Western Yilgarn NL has announced a significant discovery of high-grade cobalt, scandium, nickel, copper, and lead mineralisation at its Ida Holmes Junction Project in Western Australia, reinforcing its strategic foothold in critical minerals.

Brazilian Rare Earths Limited has unveiled new ultra-high-grade drilling results at its Monte Alto project, extending the mineralised footprint by approximately 350 metres and revealing a new parallel corridor of rare earth mineralisation.

Victory Metals has partnered with Curtin University and the Australian Government to accelerate development of the North Stanmore Heavy Rare Earth Project, positioning Australia as a key player in critical minerals supply.

The week was split between big earnings reactions and small-cap rocks-and-rigs rallies. Pro Medicus sank despite record numbers, while a handful of explorers jumped on fresh discoveries and policy wins.

Explorers led the Materials tape as fresh drill stories and new ground deals pulled buyers into small caps. Big miners still delivered, but the loudest moves came from companies offering investors a near-term catalyst.

Terra Metals has confirmed a substantial new titanium-vanadium-gallium mineralised system at its Southwest Prospect, dramatically expanding the Dante Project’s resource potential with critical metals now in focus.

Australian Mines Limited has reported outstanding near-surface scandium assay results from its Flemington Project, revealing significant potential to expand its existing resource. Follow-up drilling and an updated scoping study are set to advance this strategic critical minerals asset.

Victory Metals has reported a remarkable 26-fold increase in Hafnium grade at its North Stanmore project, achieved through simple gravity separation, positioning the company as a potential key supplier of this critical defence metal.

Heavy Rare Earths Limited has broadened its mineral rights at the Radium Hill project to include all minerals, setting the stage for a maiden drilling campaign in 2026 amid soaring yttrium prices.

Small caps did the heavy lifting this week, led by two big discovery stories in resources. Funding raises and takeover moves kept attention on who can pay for the next step, not just promise it.

Speculative money piled into new discoveries and tight-supply metals, while a handful of small caps were sold hard on thin liquidity. The week’s biggest moves came from PGMs and tungsten on the way up, and micro-cap gas on the way down.

RareX Limited has secured a pivotal mining lease for its Cummins Range Rare Earths Project in Western Australia, confirming some of the highest-grade gallium mineralisation in the country. The company also advances metallurgical testing and forges strategic US partnerships, positioning itself at the forefront of critical minerals development.
