First Au Expands Gold Footprint with Lady Jane Acquisition

First Au Limited has snapped up the Lady Jane Gold Project from Dynamic Metals Limited, bolstering its exploration portfolio in Western Australia's Ora Banda district. The six exploration licences sit right next to Ora Banda Mining's existing Davyhurst gold operations, including underground mines and a processing facility—a strategic advantage for First Au. The deal is structured to be cash-light, with A$50,000 upfront, A$100,000 at completion, and A$500,000 deferred to the first anniversary. First Au also commits to spending at least A$250,000 on drilling within two years. Dynamic Metals, for its part, is walking away with the cash while retaining a 1.5% gross revenue royalty on any minerals extracted from the project, keeping a financial interest in its future success.

The agreement will see Artrya's tools integrated across HH Health's 15-hospital network, making it the company's largest U.S. deployment to date. Once FDA clearance comes through, additional revenue will flow from fee-per-scan arrangements for Salix Coronary Plaque and Salix Coronary Flow.
