Results follow the 14m at 0.56% WO3 reported in LKRC0002, with a further seven Linka holes awaiting assay when drilling resumes mid-October.

Core Lithium Ltd Core's FY26 annual report, released this morning, showed cash of $181.8 million at June against $23.5 million a year earlier, built largely on the $120 million placement plus Glencore and InfraVia funding, but a net loss near $26 million and $21.1 million of operating cash outflow.

Bloomberg Indian Copper Producers Seek Tax Cut to Navigate Record Rally The Indian Primary Copper Producers Association is lobbying government to cut GST on copper products to 5% from 18%, a move president Rohit Pathak says could unlock up to $3.6 billion in working capital tied up across the supply chain. The push comes as LME copper has set a run of records this year, climbing above $14,700 a tonne. Hindalco and Vedanta are among the producers carrying the tax burden.
Bloomberg Pentagon-Backed Elmet to Buy Stake in Vietnam Tungsten Miner Elmet Group agreed to buy a 4.99% stake in Vietnam's Masan High-Tech Materials for $124.75 million, valuing the company at about $2.5 billion, with Masan Group retaining roughly 87.46% control. The deal pairs with supply and conversion agreements running more than eight years for roughly 1,250 tonnes a year of tungsten trioxide equivalent from Masan's Nui Phao mine, and gives Elmet a board seat.
Company Release Unico Raises $60 Million to Accelerate Development Unico Silver received firm commitments for an approximately $60 million single-tranche institutional placement at $0.76 a share, a 10.1% discount to Monday's $0.845 close. Proceeds, with existing cash, leave the company with pro-forma cash of about $110 million to fund 20,000 metres of resource drilling, a maiden Pre-Feasibility Study by January 2027, and a Definitive Feasibility Study through to the end of 2027 at the Joaquin silver-gold project in Argentina.
Mysteel Indonesia IMIP Confirms Nickel Smelter Production Cuts as El Niño Tightens Water Supply Indonesia Morowali Industrial Park confirmed several nickel pig iron smelters have cut production after El Niño reduced surrounding river water volumes, though it could not yet quantify the reduction by tenant. IMIP has previously estimated El Niño could cut park output by 30-40% against installed smelting capacity of about 4.2 million tonnes a year. Nickel Industries said its ENC HPAL project is running at about 30% of capacity through the drought, after reaching 50% of installed capacity within four weeks of commissioning.
