Critical Mineral Resources PLC (LSE:CMRS, FRA:98J) CEO Charlie Long tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that recent drilling at the Agadir Melloul copper project in Morocco confirms the mineralised system continues, building on the company's understanding of the resource despite normal variability between drill holes. Long said the focus is on building a continuous, mineable resource rather than judging individual holes in isolation; the company's internal estimate already stands at around 25,000 tonnes of copper. Ahead of the maiden JORC resource, work is progressing in parallel on metallurgical testing, pilot plant preparation, process flow sheet design, plant site selection, tailings planning and water management studies. Detailed mine scheduling will follow once the formal resource model is in place. Long said the maiden JORC resource will be a key milestone for institutional investors and specialist mining funds, even as the company remains confident in its internal model: "We know we've got a resource already... the ultimate size of the resource is going to grow over time. It's just a matter of drilling." Watch the full interview for more on Critical Mineral Resources' strategy, upcoming milestones and development plans for Agadir Melloul.

EMV Capital (AIM:EMVC, FRA:NTK1) CEO Dr Ilian Iliev and AMR Bio chair Nigel Brooksby joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss progress on XF-73, the antimicrobial drug candidate advancing towards Phase 3, and the milestones that could define the company's next stage of growth. Iliev said EMV Capital is supporting AMR Bio through its Venture Build programme, combining financial backing with hands-on value creation, and believes the next nine to twelve months could represent an important inflection point for the asset. Brooksby outlined preparations for a Type B meeting with the FDA to discuss the final Phase 3 programme, saying regulatory alignment would significantly de-risk development and increase pharma industry interest. He highlighted XF-73's advantages over the current standard of care, Mupirocin: "XF is the new gold standard, will deliver a 90% reduction in Staphylococcus aureus in just four doses over 24 hours. And we've clearly demonstrated zero resistance after over 55 passages. So it's not just an incremental improvement, it's a different weapon entirely." Iliev added that reaching Phase 3 readiness within two years of formation would validate EMV Capital's Venture Build model, with capital-light funding approaches already under consideration for the Phase 3 programme.

EMV Capital (AIM:EMVC, FRA:NTK1) CEO Dr Ilian Iliev and ProAxsis managing director Dr Louise Ryan Murphy joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss the company's commercial transformation and the opportunity emerging from its Imperial College London COPD study. Iliev said EMV Capital has supported ProAxsis since its Queen's University Belfast spin-out, highlighting progress towards operational breakeven and a recent restructuring to broaden US investor access. Ryan Murphy explained that ProAxsis has repositioned as a commercial protease biomarker-led research company, providing kit sales, clinical services and bespoke R&D for pharmaceutical, biotech and research organisations using its patented ProteaseTag technology. The company is collaborating with six global pharmaceutical companies and supported development of Insmed's FDA-approved BRINSUPRI treatment for non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. The near-term priority is the Imperial College COPD study evaluating its NEATstik point-of-use diagnostic test. "The Imperial College London study is a very important milestone study for our expansion plans into the COPD market, which has the potential to increase our revenue by order of magnitude," Ryan Murphy said. A successful outcome could also open the path to a future home self-test and entry into the regulated diagnostics market.

lika PLC (AIM:IKA, OTCQX:ILIKF, FRA:I8A) CEO Graeme Purdy joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss commercial progress across the company's Stereax and Goliath solid-state battery programmes. Purdy said Ilika has reached a significant milestone with Stereax, having recognised around £100,000 in revenue from the sale of commercial-grade electrodes to Cirtec for incorporation into the M300 product, due to launch later this year. A second income stream through product royalties is expected once devices reach end customers. "We have actually transitioned into a product revenue generating business," he said. On Goliath, Purdy said 10Ah prototype cells have been shipped to OEM and commercial customers for evaluation. While originally developed for electric vehicles, the prototypes have attracted strong interest from defence and e-bike markets, with Ilika now prioritising commercialisation in those non-EV segments. Key milestones to watch over the next 12 to 18 months include deeper Cirtec collaboration, Stereax integration into medical device platforms, additional Goliath commercial agreements, early non-EV revenues and progress towards Ilika's first licensing agreement.

Graphene Manufacturing Group Ltd (TSX-V:GMG, OTCQX:GMGMF) MD and CEO Craig Nicol joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss a new distribution agreement with Blackwoods, giving GMG's G LUBRICANT and THERMAL-XR products access to thousands of industrial customers across Australia. Nicol said Blackwoods' nationwide sales force and distribution network — spanning mining operators, freight businesses and manufacturers — represents a significant commercial step for the company. Customer demand is coming from two directions: some are seeking corrosion resistance and longer equipment life, while others are focused on energy savings. Data centres are a particularly promising market, where even modest efficiency gains translate into meaningful energy reductions. "Once they do try them, we find that they're very happy to repeat purchase," Nicol said. The Blackwoods partnership is the first step in a broader international distribution strategy, with similar agreements being pursued in Europe and the United States. Production capacity is being expanded through the company's modular Gen2 technology to keep pace with growing demand.

FireFly Metals Ltd managing director Steve Parsons talked with Proactive about the company’s progress at the Green Bay Copper-Gold Project during the June 2026 quarter, including high-grade drilling results, resource development and preparations for an upcoming economic study. Parsons said drilling at the project continued to deliver some of the strongest copper and gold intersections recorded on the property. He explained that FireFly Metals is undertaking infill drilling to convert more of the approximately 80-million-tonne mineral resource into the measured and indicated categories. Discussing the project’s high-grade Core Zone, Parsons said it contained nearly 20 million tonnes at close to 4% copper equivalent. He described Green Bay as primarily a copper orebody with an additional gold credit, noting that copper represented most of the contained metal value. The updated resource is expected to support a preliminary economic assessment and scoping study for an upscaled restart of production at Green Bay. FireFly Metals is targeting completion of the study in August 2026, with the high-grade Core Zone expected to play an important role during the early years of the proposed mine plan. Parsons also highlighted the company’s strong funding position, with approximately A$196.4 million in cash and liquid investments at the end of the quarter. Six underground drill rigs were operating at Green Bay, while drilling and targeting activities were also progressing around nearby deposits and regional exploration areas, including Rambler, East Mine and Tilt Cove.

Noble Helium COO Dermot O’Keeffe talked with Proactive about the operational preparations for drilling the Kinambo wells at the North Rukwa Project in Tanzania. O’Keeffe said the company had completed nearly all the work planned ahead of drilling. The contracted truck-mounted rig is expected to begin mobilisation shortly before moving to the first well location around the middle of August. Once on site, it will be rigged up and undergo final inspections before drilling begins. Road construction, camp development and equipment preparation are also nearing completion. Noble Helium has built accommodation, catering, power, water and communications infrastructure to support up to 56 people during the campaign. The workforce will include the rig crew, Noble Helium personnel, medical and catering staff, equipment operators, drivers and specialists involved in well logging and sampling. O’Keeffe explained that the remote location made reliable road access and careful logistics particularly important. Long-lead items, including casing, wellhead equipment, drilling fluids, cementing products, spare parts and specialised testing equipment, are now in Tanzania and ready to be mobilised. The wells are designed to test shallow and deep helium-bearing structures identified through 3D seismic reprocessing and gravity work. Noble Helium is currently targeting a late-August spud, subject to final commissioning and normal operational contingencies. Visit Proactive’s YouTube channel for more videos.

Dalaroo Metals Ltd (ASX) CEO John Morgan talked with Proactive about final preparations for a 20,000-metre drilling campaign at the Bondoukou Gold Project in Côte d’Ivoire, with maiden drilling scheduled to begin at the Wilfred target in early August 2026. Morgan said access roads, site preparation and community consultations were being completed ahead of the campaign. Phase 1 will comprise approximately 10,000 metres of reverse circulation drilling focused on Wilfred, the largest of the project’s three priority targets. Morgan also discussed recent fieldwork at the Blue Lagoon project in Greenland. The company completed geological mapping and collected around 300 samples across the project area and four additional target zones. Analytical work is expected to continue over the following six months, while Bondoukou remains the company’s main operational focus. Investors can expect initial assay results from Bondoukou around four to six weeks after drilling begins, subject to laboratory turnaround times. Planning for the diamond drilling phase is expected to begin approximately eight weeks into the program. Visit Proactive’s YouTube channel for more interviews and market updates.
