The chances of a major discovery are increasing after Invictus Energy (ASX:IVZ) hit elevated gas shows and fluorescence in its Upper Angwa primary target.

Rock chip sampling has uncovered lithium-prospective pegmatites over 8m high and 500m long at Tambourah Metals’ (ASX:TMB) RJ 101 project.

Green tech stock Tymlez (ASX: TYM) is raising $2m at an 11% premium “to pursue revenue-generating client contracts and continue the development of the company’s technology”.

Gold 50 (ASX:G50) is now drilling the “largely untested” Golconda project in Arizona.

Brazilian gold play BBX (ASX:BBX) has struggled with “complex” mineralisation at its Tres Estados and Ema precious metals projects for years.

The gold + PGEs mineralisation is weird, confusing and hard to assay and extract, leading to some tussles with the ASX.

But some initial bioleaching test results announced yesterday were a success, showing a significant increase in gold, platinum, palladium, iridium, and rhodium.
