Perpetual Resources is commencing a diamond drilling program at its Igrejinha lithium project in Brazil, targeting the Mauricio and Morro Grande prospects. The program will drill approximately 22 holes (1500m total) to test pegmatite systems beneath weathered cover using continuous core.
Sigma Lithium produced 35,000 tonnes of lithium concentrate in 2Q26, exceeding its previous guidance of 33,000 tonnes. The results follow a successful mining operations upgrade and demonstrate a 70% lithium recovery rate from spodumene ore.
Sigma Lithium has resumed sales of high-grade premium lithium oxide concentrate and closed its inaugural sale of 400,000 tonnes of high-purity lithium fines. The fines sale is expected to generate approximately US$20 million in profit, with an additional 300,000 tonnes of inventory remaining at the plant.
Lithium Ionic Corp. has filed an independent NI 43-101 compliant technical report for its Bandeira Lithium Project in Brazil. The report provides an update to the project's Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS).
Spark Energy Minerals has reported new assay results from 103 surface samples at its Arapaima Project in Brazil. The results include three lithium anomalies exceeding 1,000 ppm and an expanded gallium-REE footprint at Caladão.
Vatic Ventures has entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the Solonópole South lithium pegmatite property in Ceara, Brazil. Recent grab samples from the property returned high-grade lithium oxide values of up to 5.03% Li2O.
