NextSource Materials Provides Molo Mine Update

Begins Transporting SuperFlake® Graphite Concentrate to Port for Export

 

NextSource Materials Inc. (TSX:NEXT)(OTCQB:NSRCF) ("NextSource" or "the Company") is pleased to announce the completion of the planned screening equipment upgrades at its Molo Graphite Mine (the "Molo mine") in southern Madagascar

The Company has successfully upgraded equipment in the screening circuit to sort SuperFlake® graphite concentrate into individual size fractions to meet customer specifications. The Molo mine is now meeting or exceeding recovery and grade expectations and consistently producing SuperFlake® concentrate at a carbon content of between 95% and 97%.

During the screen installation, additional process plant upgrades were also carried out at the Molo mine that the Company believes will further enable sustainable and enhanced recoveries going forward. As a result, plant stability has been optimized and the operation is well positioned ahead of its planned Phase 2 future expansion.

The Company is now transporting saleable SuperFlake® concentrate from the Molo mine to the Port of Tulear in preparation for export.

President and CEO Craig Scherba commented,

"The team have delivered on the opportunity to capitalize on the quality of the Molo graphite deposit by improving recoveries and grades. Having previously shipped test material for qualification, we are now producing high quality, saleable graphite concentrate. This leaves NextSource well positioned to meet the specifications required by different customers and builds confidence in the resilience of our future production profile as we look towards Phase 2 expansion."

VIDEO: Lithium Universe Ltd Interview with Executive Chairman Iggy Tan

Melbourne, Australia (ABN Newswire) - In an interview with ABN Newswire, Lithium Universe Ltd (ASX:LU7,OTC:LUVSF) (OTCMKTS:LUVSF) Executive Chairman Iggy Tan outlines the current activities of the company including the vision of closing the "Lithium Conversion Gap".

Additionally, the company has recently licensed to acquire technology from Macquarie University for the extraction of silver from solar cells. The technique involves a specialised process to delaminate the components in the PV cell and avoid the crushing of the cell for recycling.

This method provides a cleaner disaggregation of the materials in the cell and enables the liberation of critical materials and a significant amount of silver. Silver is a component in the manufacture of PV cells, and with an estimated amount of 80 million tonnes of solar cell waste globally, typically dumped, the process facilitates easy recovery of these valuable materials.

SAGA Metals Showcases Radar Project as Potentially Comparable to China's Panzhihua VTM Deposit

SAGA Metals Showcases Radar Project as Potentially Comparable to China's Panzhihua VTM Deposit

 

Saga Metals Corp. ("SAGA" or the "Company") (TSXV: SAGA,OTC:SAGMF) (OTCQB: SAGMF) (FSE: 20H) a North American exploration company focused on critical mineral discovery, is pleased to report a significant breakthrough in its 2025 exploration campaign at the wholly-owned Radar Project in Labrador, Canada. Emerging technical results suggest that the project bears geological similarities to Panzhihua, the world's leading vanadiferous titanomagnetite (VTM) operation, located in China, which contributes over 40% of global vanadium (V 2 O 5 ) production 1 .

 

With a large oxide layering thickness, a near-monomineralic VTM composition, and extensive mineral tenures, the Radar Project shows the potential to become a globally meaningful VTM project. We use Panzhihua as our deposit model target, however, note that comparable Labradorite-type AMCG deposits are not necessarily indicative of the grades and tonnes of the mineralization within the Dykes River intrusion.
