VBX Limited ( (AU:VBX) ) has issued an update.

VBX Limited has reported a 51% increase in the Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource estimate at the Wuudagu B and C plateaus (including CNN), following its 2025 infill drilling program. The updated independent resource estimate by SRK Consulting now stands at 95.8 million tonnes of Measured and Indicated resources grading 39.5% Al2O3 and 13.7% SiO2, with a substantial uplift in confidence as 43% of the resource is classified as Measured and 56% as Indicated. This enlarged and higher-confidence resource base is expected to support a material extension of Wuudagu’s mine life beyond the 10-year profile outlined in last year’s pre-feasibility study, which had been constrained by a smaller 63.5 million tonne Indicated resource. VBX plans to further build its resource inventory with initial estimates for the Wuudagu D, E and F plateaus due in February, which will feed into the ongoing definitive feasibility study and could enhance the project’s long-term production outlook and strategic position in the bauxite market.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:VBX) stock is a Buy with a A$2.10 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on VBX Limited stock, see the AU:VBX Stock Forecast page.
