White Cliff Minerals (ASX:WCN) has been closely monitored by HotCopper forum pundits on additional high-grade assay results from expansion drilling at the Danvers prospect at the Rae copper project. MD, Troy Whittaker, said assays at scale continue to define Danvers as a tier-one copper target with one of the strongest shallow high-grade copper intersection results worldwide in the past decade.
“Assay results from the 2026 program have now confirmed copper mineralisation over 2.6km of strike along the Teshierpi Fault Zone, with the system remaining open in both directions and untested towards surface and at depth, providing substantial upside for future exploration,” he said.
“The combination of exceptional grades, growing strike extent and open-ended mineralisation strongly supports our thesis that the Teshierpi Fault Zone has the potential to host a significant, high-grade copper system.”
WCN was up +16.7%, to 1.8¢ at the time of writing.
Elsewhere, Core Lithium (ASX:CXO) has slid despite a sale of lithium DSO fines in its agreement with Glencore International from its existing stockpile. The sale of 25kt of Finniss lithium DSO fines followed Core’s initial 20kt fines sale announced in April 2026. CXO has been down -5.88%, to 24¢.
And, IGO (ASX:IGO) has fallen after reporting a fire at its Greenbushes lithium project. The fire occurred at the Chemical Grade Plant 3 (CGP3) facility at Greenbushes before being extinguished. No injuries were sustained.
Talison Lithium has commenced a full investigation of the cause and damage from the incident. An assessment of the impacts and required repairs will also be completed. IGO said CGP1 and CGP2 operations are unaffected, and Greenbushes production remains on track to meet FY2026 guidance.
IGO has been down -5.40% today, to $8.50.
Looking wider, the ASX 200 opened up today, gaining +0.33%.
