Niobium has had a close encounter with Encounter Resources (ASX:ENR).

ENR says it has drilled itself right into some yummy thick, high-grade A1 niobium at the (not Simon) Crean carbonatite thingy which is a part of the Aileron project in the sexy West Arunta region of West Grunter (Australia).

Highlights include 52m at 3% Nb2O5 from 81m to end of hole,  including 16m at 6% Nb2O5.

The iron ore and lithium explorer Burley Minerals (ASX:BUR) has jumped on news veteran cap markets exeuctive Dan Bahen is joining the BUR Board as non-executive chairman.

Dan has a bunch of experience – over 23 years of capital markets, commercial and finance – including 22 years with Paterson Securities and then Canaccord Genuity.

And Reward Minerals (ASX:RWD) says that the International Preliminary Examining Authority has provided a positive Preliminary Report on the “Patentability” of its processing technology for recovery of Potassium Sulphate (K2SO4 or SOP) directly from concentrated seawater and other high-sulphate brines.

Finally, hats off to Myer (ASX:MYR) which is up about 17% to end a fine Monday.

Myer shares surged on the news it was exploring a merger with Apparel Brands – which boasts retail brands like Portmans, Dotti, Just Jeans and Jay Jays.

TRADING HALTS 

Paladin Energy (ASX:PDN) – pending an announcement by the Company relating to a capital raising.

ANNND…

… Stockhead halts very briefly at about 3pm this afternoon, Launceston time, to say a teary-eyed, but immensely fond farewell to a true Stockhead legend – our esteemed editor Peter Farquhar, and the author of today’s Rise and Shine markets update. (The informative little thing you just read – above.) 

Well played, Farkers. We salute you, and all the very best with your future endeavours.
