Admissions:
Reveille Resources has admitted to trading on AQSE after successfully raising gross proceeds of £2.0m at a price of 5p per share. Prior to the Fundraise, the Company raised a total of £680k by way of pre-IPO subscriptions. The strategy is focused on identifying and advancing uranium exploration opportunities in assets that have benefited from significant historical expenditure and technical work, but which may not have achieved full value realisation due to geopolitical, technological, financial, or historical factors. Reveille’s initial focus is on two historical uranium deposits in Lombardy, northern Italy.

London Stock Exchange: Main Market and AIM
Alien Metals Limited 0.11p £12.9m (UFO.L)
The minerals exploration and development Company has entered into a conditional agreement with Venari Minerals Ltd, listed on the ASX, to acquire 100% of the fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of Knox Resources Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Venari. Knox is the 100% legal and beneficial owner of the Georgina Basin Iron-Oxide Copper Gold project, comprising a tenement package totaling approximately 2,500 km² located in the Northern Territory, Australia. The Acquisition is subject, inter alia, to the satisfactory completion of due diligence by the Company.
Enwell Energy 12.75p £40.88m (ENWL)
The AIM-quoted oil and gas exploration and production Company updated on its operational activities in Ukraine in respect of its Mekhediviska-Golotvshinska, Svyrydivske and Vasyschevskoye gas and condensate fields and Svystunivsko-Chervonolutskyi exploration licence. The MEX-GOL, SV and VAS production licences have remained suspended and, accordingly, there was no production from those licences in the second quarter, nor at present. At the SC exploration licence area, development planning is continuing, including planning for the drilling of the SC-5 exploration well, and for the installation of new gas processing facilities and other surface infrastructure, as well as assessing the feasibility of an alternative option of a connection to existing gas processing facilities. Additionally, temporary gathering, separation and compression equipment is being installed, which will enable gas and condensate from the SC-4 well to be separated, the gas compressed at site and then trucked to the Company's existing gas processing facilities at its MEX-GOL and SV fields for treatment and sale.
First Class Metals 2.55p £13.79m (FCM.L)
The UK listed Company focused on the discovery of economic metal deposits across its exploration properties in Ontario, Canada, reported the final, cumulative drill results for the Roy drilling programme on the Sunbeam Property. Bonanza-grade gold was confirmed in diamond drill hole SUN26-05 by double Fire Assays, validating the previously reported Photon Assay results. Gold mineralisation was confirmed over approximately 300m of strike, with anomalous to potentially ore-grade gold values, remaining open along strike and at depth. Exploration work continues at the parallel Pettigrew trend, applying the structural model developed at Roy to generate drill targets, while an Exploration Permit application has been submitted for winter drilling on the frozen lake adjacent to Roy.
Forgent 0.01p £4.48m (FORG.L)
The technology-led energy transition Company announced that it has successfully completed the Phase 1 drilling programme at the Company's Peak Hills gold-copper project in Western Australia. The Phase 1 programme was designed to test multiple high-priority targets across the Karalundi, Junction and Curleys prospects. The programme has focused on validation of historic exploration results, extension of known mineralisation, and evaluation of additional mineralised zones across the broader project area, to advance the Company's understanding of the gold-copper potential at Peak Hills. The programme comprised 40 drill holes for a total of approximately 2,680 metres, with drill depths of up to 100 metres. A combination of aircore and reverse circulation drilling techniques was utilised, with RC drilling employed where hard ground conditions prevented effective aircore drilling. 1,587 samples, a combination of 3m composite and single metre samples from the drilling programme, have been submitted to a Perth-based independent laboratory for assay.
Great Western Mining Corporation 3.15p £13.75m (GWMO.L)
The strategic minerals exploration and development Company announced assay results from a machine-cut channel sampling programme at its Defender-Pine Crow in Mineral County, Nevada, USA. Four new machine-cut channels were completed in April 2026 at Defender-Pine Crow returning significant tungsten mineralisation, with the widest intercept Channel C of 27 m (89 ft) @ 0.15% WO3, including 11 m (30 ft) @ 0.25% WO3. There was very low concentrations of potential penalty elements (including Molybdenum) encountered during WO3 processing, while Silver (Ag) mineralisation was found in Channel F across 2 intervals of 2m @ 17.6 g/t Ag and 2m @ 10.1 g/t Ag in the transition between Dunlap Formation limestones and garnet skarn. Additional infill rock chip samples between Defender Mine and the Company's M2 copper resource supports the hypothesis that there is a 2-3 km corridor of tungsten mineralisation. Channel and rock chip sampling results will inform the Company's fully permitted maiden drilling programme, expected to commence in the coming weeks.
Ixico 9.00p £17.79m (IXI.L)
The neuroscience imaging and biomarker analytics Company updates on trading for the current full year to 30 September 2026. Revenues are anticipated to be at least £8.0m, which is ahead of existing market expectations of £7.5m and is a 22% increase on FY 2025 revenues as there is strong trading across an increasingly diverse client base combined with contract extensions. This results from the plan put in place in 2024 and according to Bram Goorden, CEO of IXICO, “We will continue to deliver innovative differentiated scientific products, services and technology that position IXICO at the forefront of neuroscience."
Neoterra Group 2.20p £9.15m (TERA.L)
The African critical minerals exploration and development Company (formerly Altona Rare Earths), updated on operational progress at its Monte Muambe Project. Maelgwyn metallurgical testing laboratory has so far executed 14 scout flotation tests on blended fluorspar ore samples from Monte Muambe, with products assay results pending the last 5 tests. Tests completed to date have allowed the Company to define a two-stages flotation pathway to reject silicates and oxides (first stage) and subsequently reject carbonates (second stage) in order to produce an acid grade fluorspar concentrate. The 5 tests with pending results are aimed at optimising the first stage parameters, which already show a very high selectivity against fluorite (with less than 2.1% CaF2 in the scout test no 6 tailings). As initially anticipated, gallium reports to the first stage tailings, resulting in a 100% gallium concentration increase in these tailings in relation to the run of mine. These results substantially de-risk the proposed process flowsheet by demonstrating that fluorite and gallium-bearing minerals respond differently during flotation.
Petards Group 10.25p £5.62m (PEG.L)*
The AIM quoted developer of advanced security, communication and surveillance systems this morning announced contract wins across Rail & Defence and QRO Solutions. QRO Solutions received purchase orders totalling £0.5m for the provision of ANPR equipment and support. Both orders are scheduled to be delivered during the current financial year. Petards Joyce-Loebl has received orders worth over £0.9m for its Rail and Defence systems. Rail first deliveries of the £500k contract are scheduled to be made later this year and the project is expected to be completed during 2027. The defence order of £400k is scheduled to be completed during 2026.
Vianet Group 68.00p £18.76m (VNET.L)
The international provider of actionable data, business insights and payment solutions updated on trading ahead of its AGM today. The Hospitality and Unattended Retail divisions delivered recurring revenue and gross profit growth during the Q1 compared with the prior year, with trading ahead of management's expectations. Group revenue for the first quarter grew by 3.1% year-on-year, with recurring revenue being 5.8% ahead representing approximately 88% of turnover - early evidence that the operational leverage built during FY26 is coming through. The Group's net cash position has strengthened further since the year end, standing at £0.7m on 30 June 2026.
AQSE Market:
IntelliAM 80.00 £15.68m (INT:AQSE) The provider of AI-driven software solutions for the manufacturing and engineering sectors announced that it has raised £500k through a combination of a c£220k placing at 70p per share and the issue of £280k unsecured convertible loan notes. The Issue Price represents a discount of 13 per cent. to the closing middle market price of 80 pence per ordinary share on 6 July. The proceeds are to support the growth of the Company's US operations, marketing around the launch of the new IntelliAM platform and general working capital. The Company reported unaudited FY26 pro forma revenue of approximately £5.25m, on 16 April, representing growth of approximately 35 per cent. year-on-year, and unaudited annual recurring revenue of approximately £1.65m, reflecting a doubling over the prior year and an increasingly predictable revenue base. The Board expects continued revenue growth of 20%+ in each of FY2027 and FY2028. The Company also proposes to enter into an Invoice Discounting Facility in the coming weeks to be able to manage the working capital of the business as the business grows.
