Software firm Nuix (ASX:NXL) has successfully defended against a $183 million claim by its former chief executive Peter Sheehy.

Former Pilbara Minerals (ASX:PLS) geologist Nigel Broomham will join reinvigorated Canadian lithium explorer Battery Age Minerals (ASX:BM8)  as general manager of exploration.

NY fund Sapphire Global Energy will invest ~$25m in EV Resources (ASX:EVR)  to acquire projects and drill its extensive existing copper, lithium, and tin-tungsten portfolio.

Maiden drilling hit a +30m thick brine aquifer zone from 370m at C29 Metals’ (ASX:C29) Poticos 7 lithium target, with laboratory assay results expected in 7 to 14 days.

And Metalicity (ASX:MCT) has appointed veteran lawyer Roger Steinepreis a non-exec director.

Mr Steinepreis will invest $500,000 into MCT via a placement at $0.003 per share — a 20% premium to the closing price on 6 February.

Fellow directors Justin Barton and Steven Wood will also invest $20,000 each and convert all accrued director fees (being $114,247 and $9,090 respectively) on the same terms and conditions.
