ACG Metals Limited is acquiring 100% of Blue Moon Norway AS from Blue Moon Metals Inc for US$220 million in shares, securing a 94.52% interest in the construction-stage Nussir copper mine plus additional Norwegian development assets. The deal pairs Nussir with ACG’s Gediktepe operation in Türkiye, creating a portfolio of two long-life copper projects aimed at European and wider Western supply chains. For engineers and planners, the move signals future demand for Nordic mining services, infrastructure upgrades and permitting support around Nussir’s build-out.

Sunrise Energy Metals has approved the Final Investment Decision to develop the Syerston scandium project in New South Wales, with Chairman Robert Friedland and CEO Sam Riggall confirming the move. The project is positioned to become the world’s first major primary scandium source, targeting large-scale supply for aluminium–scandium alloys used in lightweight, high-strength components. For mine planners and process engineers, this signals upcoming demand for laterite ore beneficiation, high-pressure acid leach circuits, and reliable offtake-linked production scheduling for a niche but strategically important critical metal.
