InteliCare has banked more than $410,000 following the receipt of its research and development tax refund for the 2019-2020 financial year. The substantial return comes from the development of the company’s InteliLiving and InteliCare Pro product lines, which are being increasingly adopted for use across Australia in aged and disability care.

ASX-listed Calidus Resources has added one of the richest-grade gold mines in the Pilbara hinterland to its growing arsenal of projects after striking a deal with Canadian miner Novo Resources Corporation for the Blue Spec gold mine near Nullagine in WA. The deal will also see Calidus pick up the smaller Gold Spec mine to the south.

ASX-listed gold explorer, TNT Mines, has wasted no time in getting the drill rods turning at its newly acquired historic Eureka gold project about 50km north of Kalgoorlie. Eureka currently hosts an indicated and inferred mineral resource of 762,000 tonnes grading 1.8 grams per tonne for 43,100 ounces of contained gold based on previous drilling.

Classic Minerals is edging closer to cashflow after its mining license application for development of the near-surface Kat Gap gold project in WA cleared a major hurdle when Western Areas Ltd withdrew its objection to the application. Fresh from an over-subscribed $1.2 million placement earlier this week, Classic has clear air to move forward with planning to begin mining and gold production at Kat Gap next year.

ASX-listed Indonesia gold explorer and aspiring developer, Sihayo Gold, has returned solid gold assays from the first hole of a significant diamond drilling campaign at one of a surfeit of targets at its Sihayo gold project in North Sumatra. The Brisbane-based company kicked off the broad-spaced diamond program comprising 22 holes for an aggregate of 5,500m at the Hutabargot Julu epithermal gold-silver prospect last month.

ASX-listed Aurora Labs has taken receipt of major equipment to upgrade its flagship RMP-1 3D printer prototype, keeping the Perth-based industrial tech and innovation player on the path to commercialising the potentially game-changing printing device next year. The new equipment means a “fume extraction upgrade” on the prototype 3D printer can now go ahead as planned.

ASX-listed K2fly has had its Land Access, Communities and Heritage, Ground Disturbance and Rehab software K2fly Solutions certified as an Endorsed App by global business processes provider SAP. K2fly is now one of only 12 companies around the world to be endorsed by SAP whose salesforce and marketing muscle will now be let loose selling K2fly solutions across its global network.

Comet Resources has wasted no time in kicking rocks at its Barraba copper project in the New England Fold Belt region of NSW after only recently securing exploration access to the historic mining area.

InteliCare is continuing to expand its network across the east coast of Australia, signing a distribution agreement with Technology for Ageing and Disability ACT in the Australian Capital Territory.

ASX-listed West Africa bauxite hopeful, Lindian Resources, has started the next significant phase of technical analysis at its Gaoual bauxite project in Guinea as it looks to tackle the relatively high content of the impurity silica in the high-grade conglomerate deposit. The Perth-based company has just sent its geological crew to the project site to carry out all-important screening tests on Gaoual’s aluminium oxide ore.

ASX-listed Blackstone Minerals has whipped out yet another high-priority prospect from a seemingly endless production line of brownfields exploration targets at its historic Ta Khoa nickel-copper-PGMs project about 160km west of Hanoi in Vietnam. The company says its internal geophysics work came up trumps again identifying the new King Snake prospect, located just 1.5km north-east of its flagship Ban Phuc disseminated sulphide deposit.

Aruma Resources has kicked off its gold hunt in WA, with drilling commencing at its Saltwater project in the Ashburton Basin, south-west of Newman. The company has locked in 5,000m of reverse circulation drilling to test key mineralised geological features on the western extremities of its “Saltwater Ring” target. Drilling is expected to be completed before Christmas, with results in early January 2021.
