Greenland Mines has completed its 2026 field season at the Skaergaard project in southeast Greenland, identifying potential vanadium-bearing titanomagnetite, iron and gallium value streams alongside the existing palladium-platinum-gold system. The campaign delivered 4,480 m of HQ diamond core, more than 105 tonnes of bulk material from mapped and channel-sampled mineralised horizons, and Skaergaard now hosts 153.6 million indicated tonnes grading 1.53 g/t palladium, 0.65 g/t gold and 0.12 g/t platinum under S-K 1300. First mining-oriented geotechnical work, high-resolution terrain and geophysical datasets, and baseline environmental studies move the project towards metallurgical flowsheet and infrastructure design.

Grid Metals has defined an initial measured resource at the Lucy South deposit on its Falcon West property in Manitoba, totalling 51,500 tonnes at 2.58% Cs₂O and 1.47% Li₂O, including a 15,600‑tonne pollucite zone grading 5.19% Cs₂O and 1.76% Li₂O that ranks as the second-largest Western-developed cesium resource. The shallow deposit, averaging about 20 m depth and amenable to conventional open-pit mining, lies 130 km east of Winnipeg and just 0.5 km north of the Trans‑Canada Highway, with nearby rail and hydro power. Grid owns 85% of the Falcon joint venture with Agnico Eagle’s Avenir Minerals, and further winter drilling is planned to test extensions and support a potential processing plant case.

Xatśūll First Nation has terminated its 2012 and 2021 protocol and engagement agreements with Spanish Mountain Gold for the Spanish Mountain gold project in BC’s Cariboo region, stating the deals no longer reflect the significantly changed mine proposal or provide a workable framework for collaboration. The Nation emphasised ongoing use of Spanish Mountain for food gathering, medicines, recreation and culturally significant practices, and said it will be “intentional” about any industrial activity there. Spanish Mountain Gold, which recently secured BC Environmental Assessment Office approval to resume a combined provincial–federal EA and is targeting a Detailed Project Description submission in Q1 2027, saw its shares fall 14.7%, leaving a C$135.4 million market capitalisation.
