Lithium's -6.15% weekly decline was the dominant metal move for the week ending 2026-07-10, with silver also falling sharply at -4.1% and gold retreating -1.32% to $4,119.00/oz against a four-week downtrend in both metals. Junior equities posted extreme dispersion, with MLM surging 46.0% and VLI collapsing -33.33%, both without disclosed catalysts, while 66 material releases drove the bulk of identifiable news flow in the absence of any recorded financings or technical reports. Drill results were the most notable catalyst class present in the top developments, represented solely by SCMI's Phase 2 program update on 2026-07-08.

What changed: breadth 23.7% up vs 60.3% last week; median -4.2% vs +3.0%; 5 deals for $54.6M vs 2 for $11.0M; 65 material releases vs 47.

Drilling has begun at the wholly owned Victoria Ni/Cu/Co polymetallic open pit deposit on the Malartic Metals Package Property between Cadillac and Malartic, Quebec, the first program following the September 2025 Victoria mineral resource estimate. The holes are designed to undercut two areas of prior mineralization, including SUR-21-04, which assayed 74.55m of 0.14% Ni and 95.43ppm Co, and SUR-21-28, which assayed 170.55m of 0.16% Ni and 100.2ppm Co.

An approximately 65 line-kilometre induced polarization survey is scheduled to begin in early August at the Corral Copper Project in Cochise County, Arizona, ahead of a September drill program in which about 5,000 metres of a planned 10,000-metre campaign will test porphyry targets, with the remainder evaluating CRD mineralization. Drill core relogging, pXRF work, mapping and structural interpretation, carried out with input from Teck Resources Limited, identified porphyry-style features including QSP alteration, stockwork veining and molybdenum-bearing mineralization.

A fully funded 2026 exploration program has begun at the 100%-owned Bradley Peak Gold Camp in central Wyoming, comprising 5,000 to 7,000 metres of core drilling to test strike and down-plunge continuity at Apex, the parallel BPEX shear zone, and additional northern parallel structures. The BLM approved an expanded five-year Plan of Operations authorizing up to 16 acres of disturbance, up to 110 drill pad locations, three laydown areas and concurrent reclamation.

Soil sampling of 264 samples collected in March 2026 at the Rangefront Target on the Bellehelen Silver-Gold Project in Nye County, Nevada defined a coherent antimony-arsenic-mercury-gold anomaly increasing to the west-southwest beneath post-mineral cover, while an April 2026 CSAMT survey by KLM Geoscience identified a west-dipping structure corresponding to a mapped rangefront fault. Rangefront and Spyglass Ridge are priority targets for the next drill campaign, planned for late 2026 or early 2027. Eli Turner has resigned as Vice President of Exploration, effective immediately.

Final chemical assays from the completed Uranium Ore Delivery Program, which shipped ore from the Sunday Mine Complex to Energy Fuels' White Mesa Mill in Blanding, Utah, showed natural uranium grades more than 40% higher than initial probe estimates at delivery, resulting in a larger final payment to Western under the Ore Purchase Agreement. The company said it is not treating the disclosure as technical disclosure under NI 43-101 pending an updated technical report; the existing Sunday Mine Complex technical report is dated July 7, 2015.
