American Rare Earths Limited (ASX: ARR) has ticked off three important boxes at Halleck Creek Project (Figure 1): (1) impurity-removal breakthrough, (2) ~3,080 t test-mined and bulk samples dispatched for comminution, (3) third-party LREO/HREO concentrates validating the ore. The October Investor Presentation then ties the technical gains to the scale and economics of a phased development plan.

Lion Rock Minerals Limited (ASX: LRM) has secured a strategic placement and technical partnership with Tronox Holdings plc (NYSE: TROX)—one of the world’s largest vertically-integrated titanium dioxide and zircon producers. This is not just funding; it’s an alignment with an operator that mines, upgrades, and markets titanium feedstocks (including rutile) and rare earth-bearing monazite at industrial scale. The move signals an intention to fast-track drilling, resource defini

Carbonatites are some of the rarest igneous rocks on the planet, comprising less than 1% of all identified igneous systems. Despite their rarity, they are highly significant in geology and resource economics.

In this latest episode of Coffee with Samso, I reconnect with exploration legend Jon Hronsky to unpack one of the most significant emerging geological stories in Australia: the Westrunter carbonatite province. This conversation builds on John's recent presentation at the AIG’s event and dives deep into how Encounter Resources Limited (ASX: ENR) has methodically uncovered what may become a globally significant carbonatite-hosted niobium and rare earth element (REE) district in

Lion Rock Minerals Ltd (ASX: LRM) has delivered another milestone from its Minta Rutile Project in Cameroon, with premium-grade natural rutile nuggets confirmed across multiple locations. Independent validation by TZ Minerals International (TZMI), a leading authority in the titanium sector, has reinforced the global significance of Minta, confirming that the high-purity rutile is suitable for all major end-use industries (Figure 1).

Taiton Resources Limited (ASX: T88) has released a strong exploration update covering its Highway and Challenger West projects in South Australia, marking important progress on both gold and critical minerals fronts (Figure 1). The latest results highlight standout gold-in-soil values from Challenger West — including the highest recorded to date — alongside further definition of rare earth element (REE) anomalism at the Yogi prospect within the Highway Project.

Heavy Rare Earths Limited (ASX: HRE) continues to build momentum in Western Australia's Mid West, with the confirmation of a significant uranium target at its 100%-owned Perenjori Project. Following earlier geophysical and geochemical work, the latest soil assay results underscore the potential for a calcrete-hosted uranium deposit along the 8-kilometre Gingaba Well radiometric anomaly (Figure 1).  

The Radium Hill Project in South Australia has long held historical significance as the site of the country’s first major uranium mine. What was once seen primarily as a uranium deposit is now re-emerging as a polymetallic system rich in scandium and rare earth elements (REEs). With new assays from Heavy Rare Earths Limited (ASX: HRE), this overlooked potential is becoming increasingly apparent—and economically compelling.
