Gladiator Resources Ltd (ASX: GLA) (Gladiator or the Company) is pleased to announce that drilling at the Mkuju Project is progressing well. Highly mineralized intervals are observed in the core close to surface in 2 holes of the 4 completed. After the 5th hole the rig will commence drilling at the nearby Mtonya area to follow-up on the excellent historical intersections along the northwest side of the deposit which appears to be ‘open’. At the Likuyu North deposit, a 370 line-km ground magnetic survey is nearing completion – the data will guide the drill targeting aimed at identifying potential extensions or new zones.
- Drilling is well underway, with over 400m drilled to date.
- At SWC target highly mineralised intervals in 2 of the 4 holes completed to date.
- The rig will move to the Mtonya target.
- Ground magnetic survey for Likuyu North is nearing completion.
SWC Update
Downhole radiometric logging gives grades high grades in two holes with vertical intervals1:
- SWDD001: 2.32m @ 0.30% eU3O8 from 0.3m depth.
- SWDD002: 2.13m @ 0.33% eU3O8 from surface.
Holes SWDD003 and SWDD004 do not contain a significant mineralized interval. Work at hole SWD005 is in progress. Mineralisaton is within the upper 7 metres from surface, hosted in coarse sandstones typically with clay clasts (Figure 1) and the dip is gentle to horizontal. The distribution of the mineralisation is approximately indicated on Figure 2. The grade and thickness over this extent is expected to be variable – it is likely that the mineralisation has been affected by supergene processes leading to enrichment and movement of the uranium by groundwaters. It is interpreted that the mineralisation is either:
a) At the base of a layer that has been eroded except on topographic highs in which case holes SWDD003 and SWDD004 started ‘below’ this level.
b) Remobilised uranium from a primary layer lower in the stratigraphy, that has concentrated near surface; a feature observed at the nearby Mtonya deposit where in many cases the primary layers are below and lateral to the surface radiometric anomalies, typically within structurally down-thrown blocks.
Surface work is underway to firm up on the above, focusing on the ‘Bullseye’ and ‘East zone’. The drilling rig may be brought back to SWC to test targets arising
Mtonya Update
The drilling rig will move over to the Mtonya deposit 6km southwest of SWC. Here drilling will test the potential northwestward extension of the excellent historical intersections in diamond core holes drilled in 2011-213 by previous operator Uranium Resources plc (URA). These intersections include2:
- 7.0m @ 549 ppm U3O8 in hole URAMT_241 from 49.3m depth
- 8.5m @ 515 ppm U3O8 in hole URAMT_106 from 155.9m depth
- 5.0m @ 341 ppm U3O8 in hole URAMT_110 from 126.2m depth
- 2.9m @ 1172 ppm U3O8 in hole URAMT_087 from 171.3m depth
- 8.0m @ 400 ppm U3O8 in hole URAMT_300 from 157.5m depth
Likuku North magnetic survey
At Likuyu North, the 370 line-km high resolution ground magnetic survey is nearing completion. It covers an area of approximately 9 by 1.7 kms. The deposit is interpreted to be within a fluvial sequence developed along the north (down-thrown) side of a fault bounding a graben structure which has an approximate NE-SW orientation.
It is anticipated that the magnetic data will guide the ‘on-strike’ targeting for drilling and may help identify possible secondary faults imparting control on the deposit formation. Targets identified will then be tested after the drilling at SWC and Mtonya is complete. The objective is to test the potential to expand the existing deposit (4.6 Mlbs U3O8, Table 3)3. Likuyu North is 25km north of SWC/Mtonya and the main access roads have been completed ready for drilling.

Terra Clean Energy Ramps Up Summer Drilling Plans, Eyes Resource Update
Terra Clean Energy (CSE:TCEC,OTCQB:TCEFF,FWB:C9O0) President and CEO Greg Cameron outlines the company's upcoming summer drill program at the South Falcon East uranium project, building on strong results from a winter campaign at the Fraser Lakes B deposit.
“The plan is to get up to 2,500 meters back into this new area of interest. Hopefully drill into what we're defining as an unconformity basement-hosted uranium deposit with significantly higher grade than we currently have,” he said.
“We would have the ability to update that resource report in some fashion, maybe early 2026 or mid-2026, so those are the two key catalysts. But it's all about drilling and adding pounds to the current resource and, more importantly, significantly enhancing that grade which we think we have," Cameron added.
The 2025 summer drill program will target a priority zone identified in the winter campaign, where key geological features associated with high-grade uranium converge, further presenting a strong opportunity for high-grade discovery and resource expansion.

Top 3 ASX Uranium Stocks of 2025
Uranium broke out in 2024, with the spot price rising to a 17 year high of US$106 per pound early in the year. Despite a pullback to about US$78, uranium is still more than 40 percent higher than it was two years ago.
Although the market is dealing with ample supply and uncertain demand in 2025, experts are predicting a bright future as countries around the world pursue energy security goals.
Against that backdrop, ASX-listed uranium companies have been making moves in 2025.
Below the Investing News Network has listed the top-performing uranium shares on the ASX by year-to-date gains. Data was gathered using TradingView's stock screener on July 3, 2025, and Australian uranium companies with market caps above AU$10 million at the time were considered. Read on to learn more about uranium firms and what they've been up to so far this year.
1. Boss Energy (ASX:BOE)
Year-to-date gain: 72.02 percent
Market cap: AU$1.84 billion
Share price: AU$4.18
Boss Energy is one of Australia’s largest uranium mining companies by market cap. The company has been ramping up production at its Honeymoon uranium mine in South Australia and its Alta Mesa uranium mine joint-venture in South Texas. Boss Energy holds a 30 percent stake in Alta Mesa, with the remaining 70 percent owned by enCore Energy (TSXV:EU,NASDAQ:EU).
So far in 2025, Boss Energy has expanded its holdings in Australia’s uranium sector. The company entered into a binding option and earn-in agreement in early March with Eclipse Metals (ASX:EPM), which will grant Boss Energy the option to earn up to an 80 percent interest in the Liverpool uranium project in the Northern Territory.
A few days later, Boss Energy increased its position in Laramide Resources (ASX:LAM,TSX:LAM,OTCQX:LMRXF) to 18.4 percent. Laramide’s flagship asset is the Westmoreland uranium project in Queensland. While the state currently holds a moratorium on uranium mining, Boss Energy Managing Director Duncan Craib stated the company is confident the Queensland government will “inevitably lift” the ban.
The company announced on June 18 that it had met its first-year production guidance of 850,000 pounds of U3O8 at Honeymoon for the fiscal year 2025.
Shares of Boss Energy reached their 2025 peak on June 30 at AU$4.67.
2. Aura Energy (ASX:AEE)
Year-to-date gain: 24 percent
Market cap: AU$146.04 million
Share price: AU$0.16
Aura Energy is exploring and developing uranium and polymetallic projects in Africa and Europe. The company’s most advanced asset is the Tiris uranium project in Mauritania. The 2024 FEED study on Tiris demonstrates the potential for a near-term, low-cost uranium mine producing 2 million pounds of U3O8 per year over a 25 year mine life.
Aura Energy is hoping to bring the Tiris uranium mine into production in 2027.
Additionally, Aura wholly owns the Häggån vanadium-potash-uranium project in Sweden, which contains one of the world's largest uranium deposits, according to the company. Sweden currently has a ban on uranium mining, but the country's current government is taking steps towards lifting it to support the country's nuclear energy production.
In early June, Aura shared that it is holding discussions with the Swedish government and entered a strategic collaboration agreement with fellow Australia-based, Sweden-focused company Neu Horizon Uranium.
Shares of Aura Energy hit a year-to-date high of AU$0.18 twice so far this year, most recently on June 30. This followed the June 26 release announcing the publishing of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment on the US International Development Finance Corporation website. Aura applied to the organization for debt financing to cover a portion of development costs for Tiris.
3. Elevate Uranium (ASX:EL8)
Year-to-date gain: 16.98 percent
Market cap: AU$119.54 million
Share price: AU$0.31
Elevate Uranium is exploring and developing uranium projects in the top uranium producing nations of Namibia and Australia. Its project pipeline includes the Koppies and Marenica projects in Namibia, and the Minerva and Angela projects in Australia.
Koppies is its most advanced project and has a near-surface resource of 66 million pounds of U3O8.
Elevate has also developed the proprietary U-pgrade beneficiation process, which reduces ore mass by greater than 95 percent prior to leaching. This results in concentrated uranium with grades of about 10,000 parts per million uranium.
The company’s presentation released in mid-June outlines that its U-pgrade demonstration plant at the Koppies project will be operational by the end of 2025. Additionally, The company plans to begin a project study at Koppies in late 2025.
Shares of Elevate Uranium reached their 2025 peak on June 18 at AU$0.35.

ABOUT NORTH SHORE
The nuclear power industry is in growth mode as more nuclear power will be required to meet the world's ambitious CO2 emission-reduction goals and the needs of new power-intensive technologies like AI. In this environment, new discoveries of economic uranium deposits will be very valuable, especially in established uranium-producing jurisdictions like Saskatchewan and New Mexico (see news release dated June 24, 2025). North Shore is well-positioned to become a major force in exploration for economic uranium deposits. The Company is working to achieve this goal by exploring its Falcon and West Bear properties at the eastern margin of the Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan, expanding its exploration efforts to include the Grants Uranium District in New Mexico and by evaluating other quality opportunities in the United States and Canada to complement its portfolio of uranium properties. North Shore summarized exploration efforts at its Falcon property in a May 27, 2025, news release.
