COD: Positive Cobalt Flotation Results at Elizabeth Creek

Coda Minerals has reported positive laboratory flotation results for cobalt at its Elizabeth Creek Project in South Australia. The testwork demonstrated that up to 83% of cobalt remaining after whole-ore chloride leaching can be recovered into a high-grade concentrate (1.48% Co) with a low mass pull (4.0%). These preliminary results open a pathway to potentially include cobalt revenue, which was previously excluded, into the project's economics, though further testwork and capital expenditure assessment are required.

CNJ: Annual Report to shareholders

Conico Ltd's annual report for the year ended June 30, 2026, details a successful recapitalisation that has left the company debt-free and funded for near-term exploration. Despite reporting a significant net loss of $13.87 million, the company plans to conduct drilling at its Mt Thirsty Project in Western Australia to integrate scandium into the existing cobalt-nickel-manganese JORC Resource, building on promising historical intercepts. Additionally, new licence applications for rare earth elements and gold-PGE projects were lodged in East Greenland, although existing Greenland assets faced impairment due to a lack of field activities during the year.
