St George Mining has hit a 5.25m drill intersection going 6.95% nickel, 2.67% copper and 0.23% cobalt from 185m down-hole at its Investigators prospect near Leonora in WA. Another impressive 6.39m long intersection in a separate hole showed 6.48% nickel, 2.77% copper and 0.21% cobalt from 184.42m down-hole. The impressive results from massive sulphide intercepts continue to expand the footprint of mineralisation at the prospect.

Myanmar Metals’ drill campaign at its Bawdwin base metals project in Myanmar, has intersected high grade mineralisation of up to 45m @ 6.7% lead, 5.6% zinc and 113g/t silver from 76m down-hole in an area previously considered to be waste. The results could significantly add to the Bawdwin resource estimates and the economics of the China Pit pre-feasibility study, both of which are expected in early 2019.

Tyranna Resources’ partner Alliance Resources has returned some impressive high-grade intersections including a long 20m intersection going 12.44g/t gold from the Weednanna gold prospect within the Wilcherry JV project in South Australia. More RC drilling will take place in December to upgrade resources in the eastern optimised pit area from the inferred to indicated confidence level.

Infinity Lithium says its proposed AUD$395m Spanish lithium project could potentially churn out AUD$172m a year before tax in annual operating free cash flows for at least 24 years. The lovely set of numbers were contained in the company’s lower level scoping study announced to the market this week that details the preliminary economics of building a lithium hydroxide plant along side its lithium mine.

Anglo Australian Resources has defined a mineralised gold zone over 2.5km long and up to 250m wide at its Mandilla project located near Kambalda in WA. The company is now on the hunt for the bedrock source of the mineralisation, which it believes lies at the sheared geological contact between a granite and a sedimentary sequence that will undergo future deep drill testing, according to Anglo.

ASX listed resume verification company, CVCheck, looks set to turn cashflow positive this quarter after a sustained focus on growing its more lucrative business to business market and an assault on costs has starting to pay off. The company’s revenues have grown $5m in two years from $7.1m in FY2016 to $12.5m in FY2018 whilst customer acquisition costs and cash burn has steadily decreased.

If it wasn’t Adriatic Metals, a 46m long drill intersection boasting at least 4 different high-grade minerals would ordinarily have the West Perth investment glitterati spitting their coffee across the table at Black Toms. But such is the quality of the results of Adriatic’s ongoing drill campaign that the bar has been set very high indeed for this rapidly advancing $54m market cap ASX listed exploration company.

Vonex is progressing beta testing of its game changing “Oper8tor” conferencing app which allows users of multiple voice communication platforms such as Skype or Whatsapp to talk to each other regardless of which platform each user subscribes to. Vonex says it has successfully facilitated over 1000 conference calls using the app and it has now opened the beta testing of Oper8tor Conference via web browser to the general public.

Sky and Space Global has signed a landmark distribution agreement with Pan-American satellite tele-communications consortium, Globalsat Group, for the provision of connectivity services using its nano-satellites. Revenues from this contract will flow immediately upon successful completion of in-orbit testing of the first batch of Sky and Space nano-satellites that are expected to be blasted into space around mid 2019.

Image Resources is starting to transport its zircon-rich heavy mineral sands concentrate from the Boonanarring project north of Perth to port storage in Bunbury, barely a month after starting wet commissioning of the mine plant. First revenues could kick in before the end of the year with the first bulk shipment of the zircon-rich HMC scheduled to depart in December.

Middle Island Resources is keeping the momentum going at its Sandstone gold project in WA with a slew of holes to be drilled at greenfield targets during the first half of 2019. The program is aimed at identifying and quantifying additional open pit deposits of sufficient scale and grade to facilitate a recommissioning of the historic gold operation.
