Tivan Limited is nearing completion of its extensive two-year drilling program at the Speewah Fluorite Project in Western Australia.

The company has drilled 12,809 metres in 2026. With a final 1,275 metres scheduled, cumulative drilling will reach approximately 37,000 metres. The field work supports an incorporated joint venture involving Tivan, Sumitomo Corporation, and the Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security, alongside strategic partner ETFS Capital Limited. In May 2026, the company produced 195 kilograms of acid-grade fluorspar at 98.6% CaF2.

"The finish line is in site for our geology team at Speewah. This has been formative journey for our young company, delivering a highly complex and multi-disciplinary campaign, that sits comfortably within the top ten of metres drilled for any critical minerals project in Australia."

"We are on track to deliver a further Mineral Resource estimate shortly, that will be integrated into our Definitive Feasibility Study, enabling a Maiden Ore Reserve to be defined at Speewah."
— Grant Wilson, Executive Chairman

Data from the 2026 campaign will underpin an updated Mineral Resource estimate in November 2026. This estimate will feed into a Definitive Feasibility Study and help establish a maiden Ore Reserve estimate ahead of a Final Investment Decision.

Following fieldwork at Speewah, Tivan will redeploy its geology team to upcoming drilling programs in Timor-Leste and Central Australia.
