Iris Metals Limited ( (AU:IR1) ) has shared an announcement.

The new rubidium results, to be incorporated into a maiden rubidium mineral resource estimate targeted for late Q1–early Q2 2026, augment Beecher’s existing 2.20 Mt at 1.05% Li₂O lithium resource and position the project among the world’s highest-grade rubidium deposits, strengthening Iris Metals’ ambitions to develop a premier US multi-commodity critical minerals hub and enhance its role in Western rubidium and lithium supply.
