Today's Interesting Company News Gold and Antimony in One Permit: Rua Gold’s Positive PEA Lands in a Fast-Track Jurisdiction(TSX:RUA) Rua Gold Inc. has delivered a positive Preliminary Economic Assessment for its 100%-owned Auld Creek Gold-Antimony Project in New Zealand’s Reefton Goldfield, outlining an after-tax NPV5% of approximately US$42 million at base-case prices, rising to roughly US$113 million at spot gold. The PEA models a 5.5-year, 250,000-tonne-per-year underground operation producing separate gold and antimony concentrates, with contained metal of roughly 84,000 ounces of gold and approximately 9,000 tonnes of antimony, and average annual production of about 27,000 gold-equivalent ounces. Projected metallurgical recoveries are 95% for gold and 85% for antimony, using a no-cyanide flowsheet. Rua filed a Fast-Track Referral application on April 20, 2026, under New Zealand’s Fast-Track Approvals regime, with a PFS targeted for Q4 2026 and the project targeted to be fully permitted in Q2 2027. A 19,000-metre infill and step-out drill program is underway, aimed at converting Inferred resources to Indicated, establishing Measured resources ahead of the PFS, and extending mineralization open at depth and to the north. The underlying Mineral Resource Estimate, effective February 27, 2026, comprises 0.3 million tonnes Indicated at 5.67 g/t gold-equivalent for 54,000 ounces, plus 1.3 million tonnes Inferred at 3.66 g/t gold-equivalent for 150,000 ounces, at a 1.6 g/t gold-equivalent cut-off. The company projects completion of a Preliminary Feasibility Study in Q4 2026 and aims to have the project fully permitted in Q2 2027. Revival Gold to Acquire Land Contiguous to Its Mercur Gold Project(TSXV: RVG) Revival Gold Inc. announced that pursuant to an agreement dated June 5th, 2026, Revival Gold's wholly owned subsidiary, Revival Gold (Utah) Inc., will acquire a 278 hectares (686 acres) parcel of land contiguous to the Company's Mercur Gold Project in Tooele County, Utah, for US$1,886,912. The Acquisition secures a buffer area of private land contiguous to Mercur and positions the Company to benefit with respect to the potential development of site infrastructure by allowing a potentially more direct transportation route from the South Mercur area of mineralization to the currently contemplated location of heap leach facilities in the West Mercur area. The Company already owns the mineral rights for the property. Closing of the Agreement is subject to certain customary terms and conditions and is expected to close on or around July 1, 2026. Revival Gold is advancing development of the Mercur Gold Project in Utah and ongoing exploration at the Beartrack-Arnett Gold Project located in Idaho. The Company is headquartered in Toronto, Canada, with its U.S. exploration and development office located in Salmon, Idaho.
