ASX Big Hits: Encounter, Nimy Resources and Hyterra
The air core rig has completed the first pass program at Joyce, with assays expected in August, and was then remobilised to Encounter's Steller prospect, 15km north along the Elephant Island Fault. The Elephant Island Fault hosts the Crean deposit, which comprises 3.5Mt of ore averaging 1.92 per cent niobium pentoxide.
Encounter's next steps at Joyce will involve mobilising a reverse circulation rig to test the depth and width of high-grade zones, alongside ground gravity and passive seismic surveys to map deeper weathering and metal enrichment, following a trial at the Green prospect.
Encounter's 40,000m drill program underscores its focus on uncovering major niobium and copper deposits in Australia's prospective mineral belts.
With niobium's critical role in advanced technologies and Joyce's high-grade results, Encounter is well-positioned to capitalise on growing global demand for critical minerals.
If successful, the exploration could potentially establish Encounter's Aileron project as a significant contributor to the niobium supply chain.
Company: Nimy Resources (ASX: NIM)
Project: Mons Project, Block 3, gallium project
Location: 370km north-east of Perth
Hit: 240m at 55g/t gallium oxide from surface to EOH, including 56m at 101g/t gallium oxide from 60m
Peak value: 1m at 285g/t gallium oxide from 115m
Nimy Resources has reported exceptional gallium oxide results from its Mons project, 140km north-northwest of Southern Cross in WA.
Gallium metal and its oxide comprise a critical yet lesser-known commodity, increasingly vital due to their roles in technology - particularly amid recent supply constraints. China controls 98 per cent of global refined gallium products but imposed export controls in August 2023, triggering price spikes and supply chain concerns.
Nimy's phase two reverse circulation drilling program at its Block 3 prospect delivered remarkable gallium oxide grades across four 240m-deep holes.
The stand-out hole averaged 55 grams per tonne (g/t) gallium oxide - equivalent to 41g/t gallium metal, using a 1.3442 conversion factor - from surface to end-of-hole. The mineralisation remains open.
The hole included 56m at 101g/t gallium oxide from 60m, a peak 1m interval of 285g/t gallium oxide from 115m, and a 4m composite of 126g/t gallium oxide from 188m. The final 20m averaged 30g/t gallium oxide across five 4m composites.
The second hole yielded two high-grade zones: 20m at 102g/t gallium oxide from 40m, peaking at 141g/t gallium oxide over 4m from 56m, and 36m at 104g/t gallium oxide from 112m, with a peak 1m interval of 376g/t gallium oxide from 117m.
The third hole intersected 28m at 59g/t gallium oxide from 216m to end-of-hole.
The fourth hole returned 8m at 108g/t gallium oxide from 144m, with a peak 1m interval of 184g/t gallium oxide from 145m, and 20m at 63g/t gallium oxide from 220m to end-of-hole.
Average grades for the three other holes were 57g/t, 37g/t, and 30g/t gallium oxide over their 240m lengths.
These results, with mineralisation open in all directions, highlight Block 3's potential to meet soaring global gallium demand.
Nimy plans to deliver an initial mineral resource estimate in the December quarter, following assays from its phase three program.
Ongoing exploration is targeting extensions of the gallium-hosting chlorite schist, with mineralisation identified beyond current limits, suggesting resource expansion potential.
Despite gallium's relative abundance in the Earth's crust, widely estimated at 19 parts per million of the elemental metal, economically viable deposits are rare, making Nimy's high-grade, coherent mineralised system a promising contributor to the West's gallium supplies.
Company: Hyterra Ltd (ASX: HYT)
Project: Nemaha project, Kansas, the United States
Hit: High helium concentrations up to 4.4% in mud gas samples at Blythe 13-20 well.
Hyterra Limited reported an exceptional helium discovery at its Nemaha project in Kansas, with mud gas samples from its Blythe 13-20 well showing helium concentrations up to 4.4 per cent.
This is a significant find, surpassing typical helium levels in the region and marking a rare occurrence for Kansas, where helium concentrations in the Hugoton gas field typically range from 0.25 per cent to 2.5 per cent.
Helium, a colourless, odourless, non-toxic and inert noble gas, is the second most abundant element in the universe, but it is rare on Earth. Formed as a by-product of radioactive decay, it is a non-renewable resource typically extracted from natural gas deposits.
Its unique properties, including an extremely low boiling point of -268.9°C, make it irreplaceable in semiconductors, aerospace, MRI technology and quantum computing.
The global helium shortage underscores the value of this discovery. Kansas is a strategic hub for US helium production, supported by a robust regulatory environment and decades of expertise from the Hugoton field.
The first significant helium discovery in Dexter, Kansas, in 1903 with a 1.84 per cent helium concentration. Dexter lies south of Blythe 13-20 near the Nemaha Ridge. Kansas currently hosts eight helium production plants, reinforcing its dominance in domestic supply.
The Blythe 13-20 well will transition to an appraisal phase in the coming weeks, with downhole monitoring equipment installed to gather data for an initial testing program.
This discovery strengthens Hyterra's position in meeting growing helium demand, particularly for healthcare, which amounts to 32 per cent of US consumption, mainly for MRI cooling.
With no viable substitutes, helium's critical role in advanced industries highlights the significance of this high-grade find.

Regulator zeros in on Bally's Star rescue deal
Star Entertainment's rescue plan could be under threat with the NSW casino regulator warning it will closely examine the finances and leadership of Bally's Corporation before allowing it to take control. The American gaming giant will control Star, which operates casinos in Sydney, Brisbane and the Gold Coast, after providing a $300 million lifeline earlier this year. It has already flagged its intention of overhauling management as part of a turnaround plan and Bally's chairman Soo Kim is expected to join the board of the ASX-listed gaming group.

Federal Government and other creditors facing $300m wipeout on failed mineral sands projects
The Federal Government and other creditors of mineral sands miner Strandline Resources are facing a $300 million wipeout even with the sale of the collapsed company's flagship WA project to Japanese group Iwatani. Iwatani, which already owns South West mineral sands miner Doral, is proposing to take control of the mothballed Coburn mine near Shark Bay from receivers with a $15m cash offer that would see secured creditors repaid less than 5¢ in every dollar they are owed. The deed of company arrangement for Coburn, if approved by creditors next week, would crystallise a loss of about $160m for the project's biggest backer, the government-owned Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility. A statutory report by administrators Cor Cordis into the collapse of Strandline and its operating subsidiary Coburn Resources reveals NAIF is owed $167m, having advanced a final $5m just three months before the miner collapsed in February. With bondholders owed $94m and NAB nearly $17m, secured creditors alone are on the hook for Coburn for $277.5m. Under the DOCA, they would likely collectively recover less than $10m, while 224 unsecured mainly trade creditors would share just $1.5m to settle another $49m of claims. Subject to clarification about which company actually employed them, the deed funds would also be used to pay $5 million in outstanding entitlements owed to nearly 170 employees. The ASX-listed Strandline was put into administration on February 21 after its backers ran out of patience with protracted efforts to address Coburn's poor operating performance and restructure the group's hefty debt. Receivers from McGrathNicol took control of the mine under an almost simultaneous appointment by the secured creditors. Strandline spent $260m developing Coburn to exploit a large tonnage, but low-grade deposit, about 300km north of Geraldton. It entered commercial production in November 2022 but struggled from the start, falling well short of the targets assumed in the feasibility study that underpinned the development. Directors sheeted home blame to various factors, including design and construction flaws, unreliable equipment, labour shortages, and higher-than-expected handling and operating costs. However, administrators Thomas Birch and Jeremy Nipps added that Coburn never produced enough to do better than break even. Strandline and Coburn, they said, 'were reliant on funding from lenders to bridge their collective working capital deficit in circumstances where operations were never generating sufficient cash or gross profit'. Iwatani's was one of two proposals received by McGrathNicol after a sale campaign, with the receivers opting for the Japanese company, partly because its offer was better, it had more certainty and it 'would see the continuation of the Coburn project after a short period of care and maintenance'. Iwatani could not be immediately contacted on Friday.

Gold Digger: Riches rain for gold miners, but value is in the eye of the beholder
Gold miners have been out and about for reporting season Market reactions are heavily dependent on investor expectations, even with the sector printing serious cash Newmont ran hard on Friday after a stellar June quarter Market reactions during reporting period are often a gauge of feelings as much as facts and figures. What's important is not necessarily the number that's reported, but how it correlates to the mood and expectations of the investors punting on a stock. Fortescue's (ASX:FMG) quarterly this week, for instance, was well received because of its record iron ore output and falling costs. But a decision to halt two green energy projects and reduce spending on the troubled division was as much a signal for investors worried about cash burn and dividends to buy in as any of the hard numbers. For the gold scene, the cash generation has been predictably strong. Northern Star Resources (ASX:NST), for instance, reported record underlying free cash flow of $536 million for FY25 on Thursday, after selling 1.634Moz at an all in sustaining cost of $2163/oz. It has a whopping $1.914bn cash on the balance sheet with net cash of $1.013bn after its deal to acquire De Grey Mining, which brought a cash pile with it alongside its world-class Hemi gold project. Cash earnings are expected to clock in at $2.8-2.95bn, with Northern Star also winding down hedging commitments to reflect its balance sheet strength. Yet, NST shares have shed close to 5% over the past week and over 18% in the last month. Despite gold prices climbing 28% YTD, NST shares have barely budged. Dilution from the DEG deal is one thing, but there are also concerns that future earnings will be chewed up by increased capex, especially around its critical Kalgoorlie hub and Super Pit gold mine. Citi downgraded its price target this week from $18 to $21 and reduced EBITDA estimates going forward between 3-7%. Analysts are also questioning the timeliness of numbers on a project to expand the KCGM business and processing plant. MD Stuart Tonkin admitted on an earnings call the operating cost of $1425/oz could be old given the run up in gold prices since the decision was taken. But he maintains it will still be one of the top cash spinners globally. "That $1425 (an ounce) is perhaps a stale number, albeit this asset will be a top 5 global gold mine, and it will be setting inside the third lowest quartile global cost curve, and that's been the investment case," Tonkin said. "So relative it will generate as much cash flow as anything globally." Some more takeaways Capricorn Metals (ASX:CMM) is yet to give its final numbers for the June quarter. But its shares have been in limbo as investors digest some relatively noteworthy M&A activity from the mid-tier gold miner. CMM announced the $189m scheme deal to acquire Warriedar Resources (ASX:WA8). There'll be some dilution – the 1 for 62 share offer will see WA8 shareholders own ~4.36% of the company, equivalent to 15.5c per WA8 share and a 29% premium over Warriedar's July 23 closing price. It's a potential satellite development for CMM's Mt Gibson project, the next cab off the rank for the miner beyond its operating Karlawinda mine, with Warriedar's Golden Range containing a resource of 1.38Moz of gold and 60,000t of antimony. Capricorn has shed over 3% on Friday and more than 4% in the past five days. Pantoro (ASX:PNR) has been a big winner, declaring ~$196m of EBITDA for FY25 including $80.4m for the fourth quarter alone. With a cash build of ~$43m, the more than 25,000oz delivered by the Norseman gold mine came in at the upper half of guidance. PNR set guidance of 100-110,000oz at AISC of $1950-2250/oz. Its shares crumbled 5% on Friday amid a sector wide gold and mining sell off. But they were still ~22% higher on the week, propelling the miner's valuation to almost $1.5bn. At the very big end of the spectrum, Newmont Corporation (ASX:NEM) broke the mould with a 3.8% lift after nearly doubling net income for the three months to June 30 YoY to US$1.595bn. The world's largest gold producer by volume, NEM announced a US25c cash dividend for the quarter after selling 1.38Moz of gold at an average price of US$3320/oz and gold equivalent cost of US$1203/oz when copper, silver, lead and zinc by-products are taken into account. NEM finished the quarter with some US$6.2bn in consolidated cash, US$10.2bn in total liqudity and net debt of US$1.4bn Canaccord's Carey MacRury said free cash generation of US$1.71bn and all in sustaining cost margins of US$1738/oz clocked in well above the broker's US$1538/oz estimate, representing a lift of 34% QoQ and doubling over the past year. "Overall, the quarter highlights improving operating performance, with three solid quarters in a row and tracking well to achieve its 2025 guidance," MacRury said. "Newmont remains one of our Best Ideas among the senior producers with improving production, strong FCF, capital return program, and attractive valuation."
