Osmond Resources’ preliminary study has put a US$2.31 billion post-tax NPV on its Spanish rare earths and mineral sands project, but the headline economics rest on a scoping-level model and a US$300 million funding requirement. The next test is whether drilling, metallurgy, permitting and financing can turn the attractive concept into a financeable mine.

Fulcrum Lithium has staked 41 additional claims around its Alkali Flats project in Nevada and reported up to 79% lithium extraction from acid-free roast and water-leach tests. The results improve on earlier water-leach work, although they remain below the company’s 93% to 96% sulfuric-acid benchmark and come from scoping-level tests.

Titanium Sands has warned of material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern, with just $112,578 in cash and $1.8 million of convertible notes due for repayment or conversion.

Cadoux says resampling of 21 historical Danube drill holes has extended rare earth-zircon mineralisation up to 1.4 kilometres north of its June Exploration Target and opened a southern target area.
