The latest update is out from West Cobar Metals Ltd. ( (AU:WC1) ).

West Cobar Metals reported solid progress across its portfolio in the December 2025 quarter, led by the launch of a comprehensive metallurgical testwork program at the Salazar Critical Minerals Project in Western Australia to assess the potential for a lower‑capex heap leach operation and to prioritise production of a mixed rare earth carbonate product, with additional focus on scandium and gallium recovery and the advancement of a gallium Mineral Resource estimate. The company also advanced its gold and base‑metal growth options, confirming widespread gold mineralisation in air‑core drilling at the Mystique Project while applying for a substantial expansion of prospective ground, and initiating re‑assaying and planning new drilling at the Bulla Park copper‑antimony project to address previously under‑reported antimony grades and target higher‑grade mineralisation and additional tonnage, which could enhance the scale and value of its exploration assets for investors and strategic partners.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:WC1) stock is a Hold with a A$0.03 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on West Cobar Metals Ltd. stock, see the AU:WC1 Stock Forecast page.
