TZ jags second Microsoft-backed sale for data centre locking kits
The kits from this order are destined for data centres in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
The new deal is worth about US$156,000 (A$240,000) and adds to an earlier 120-kit purchase for Microsoft's United States operations revealed earlier this month. The latest order takes TZ's total Microsoft-backed sales so far to US$362,500 (A$585,000).
The order is part of a broader 360-unit commitment worth $725,000 to install a high-tech locking solution on Microsoft's server cabinets in data centres around the globe. It also represents the start of a commercial rollout of the company's retrofit solution to the high-security data centre market.
TZ's kits are powered by the company's proprietary slide handle smart locking system, which blends a futuristic shape memory alloy (SMA) with microprocessors to create a unique electronic locking system.
Known as the 'SMArt' system, the technology has dispensed with clunky keys in favour of a sleek, software-powered solution that puts control at a user's fingertips, offering tougher security and remotely controllable access with the push of a button or a card tap.
The lock comes with TZ's API-driven software combined with PortLink connectivity units and all the hardware needed to bolt into existing cabinet infrastructure.
The kits were specifically designed as a retrofit solution to deliver upgraded rack-level security, which can integrate seamlessly with Microsoft's broader access control platforms.
The Microsoft deal followed top-notch results from pilot installations at data centres in Dublin and Chicago and comes hot on the heels of the tech giant's recently reported plans to spend US$80 billion to expand its global data centre footprint.

Gold Digger: There's a sector of the market doing EVEN BETTER than gold producers
Gold developers are beginning to outperform gold producers, even as the giants of the industry print cash Lion Selection Group says ASX developer/assessors are sitting on +80% gains in 2025 Evolution pumps up dividend after record year This week has been notable for the start of the gold's financial reporting season – the big one with the ASX's gold mining class uploading their financial year results to a thirsty shareholder base baying for dividends on the back of a year of record gold prices and profits. Back to that in a few pars, but for now, we're taking a look at a quarterly report that may have slipped through to the keeper for some. It's the Lion Selection Group (ASX:LSX) investor update, which has a pretty interesting statistic enclosed. Gold juniors, and resources microcaps in general have been left in the mud by large caps since the end of the post-Covid boom in 2022. But they're just starting to lead a resurgence according to some sleuthing from Lion, which has backed that sector of the market heavily in recent years. Gold producers have had a good run in 2025, outpacing the 28% lift in USD gold and 22% in AUD gold with a 40% YTD rise. But assessment and development stage companies, those looking to bring deposits into production in the coming months and years, have doubled that growth in percentage terms, lifting a heady 81% so far this year. To put that into context, the ASX All Ords gold sub-index is now looking at a 43% YTD return. Revenge of the nerds Lion CEO Hedley Widdup has largely been deploying the cash earned from the sale a few years ago of a stake in an Indonesian gold project into Australian gold names with development potential in recent years. Since January 2022 it's boasted 89% portfolio gains, with $40.9m in cash still in hand to deploy. A few months ago the fundie moved the needle on his patented mining investment clock to 5 o'clock, a sign that the next boom and end of the most recent (and relatively short-lived) bust could be near. According to the Lion clock, 6 o'clock is the point when the next upcycle begins, with midnight heralding the peak of the market and a coming bust. Lion's portfolio includes one junior producer in Brightstar Resources (ASX:BTR), with advanced developers in Medallion Metals (ASX:MM8), Saturn Metals (ASX:STN) and Antipa Minerals (ASX:AZY) all among its big winners so far this year. At the earlier stage, its gold investments include Queensland gold and copper explorer Sunshine Metals (ASX:SHN), Great Boulder Resources (ASX:GBR), NSW market darling Koonenberry Gold (ASX:KNB) and the unlisted Plutonic. Lion holds $17.9m in cash in legacy investments, largely companies with overseas projects outside the gold space, with investments made since January 2022 amounting to $73.5m. Speaking to Stockhead last week, Widdup said the market was beginning to wake up to the need to head down the ladder and look at juniors developers to access the next phase of gains for the gold sector, with commodity prices in excess of $5000/oz for months now. "I think that's probably the market waking up, maybe, to the bargain – maybe saying I've got my money in the producers and I'm recycling some money out of them into the next risk level down and I'm doing it with a perspective around who's most likely to get developed or bought," he said in an interview. M&A is one of the value drivers for these companies. Warriedar Resources (ASX:WA8) is being hunted by Capricorn Metals (ASX:CMM) in a $189 million scrip bid, the latest in a slew of deals announced across the WA gold space. Warriedar's Golden Range gold and antimony resource, including the large Ricciardo deposit, is 3km from 29Metals' Golden Grove copper, gold, silver and zinc mine and located to the northwest of CMM's Mt Gibson development. "I think that's probably helping the juniors across the space, you know, there's speculation sneaking in about M&A, the gold price set up is great already, but then that sentiment is starting to filter through." Widdup says the most strategic developer M&A targets are those juniors with more than 1Moz in resources and proximity to a growth hungry mid-tier – either geographically or via a big brother on its register. He views Antipa as a natural target for Greatland Resources (ASX:GGP), with its 2.5Moz Minyari Dome project located in the Paterson province near the massive Telfer gold mine. Another is Medallion, which has Alkane Resources (ASX:ALK) on board as a significant shareholder. It's eyeing ASX 300 inclusion after a merger with TSX-listed Mandalay Resources which will marry its Tomingley mine in NSW with the Costerfield gold-antimony mine in Victoria and Bjorkdall gold mine in Sweden. The firm also has the large Boda porphyry in its back pocket, but Medallion's Ravensthorpe gold project shapes as a much speedier, if smaller scale development with the company signing binding terms on the acquisition of IGO's Forrestania nickel plant ahead of a late 2025 FID. The other one Widdup is looking at closely, outside of Lion's portfolio this time, is Magnetic Resources (ASX:MAU) and its Laverton project, which is located next door to Genesis Minerals' (ASX:GMD) Laverton mill. "Genesis has just put its foot on everything that surrounds (MAU MD) George Sakalidis. So, you know, that was an easy one to speculate about as well," Widdup said. While MAU has been up a more pedestrian 21% YTD, MM8 and AZY have been leading lights among gold small caps, lifting 162% and 111% YTD respectively. Evolutionary science And now to the large caps, where Evolution Mining (ASX:EVN) has delivered the first major hit of financial reporting season, nearly tripling its final dividend to 13c. The $260 million payout was a positive start for gold bulls, coming on top of a 7c interim dividend and 260% higher than the 5c divvie paid out at the end of FY24. Evolution's profit after tax shined bright, up 119% to $926.17m. It's a tasty entree for ASX gold investors, with reporting season to get much busier from the start of next week. The gold and copper miner noted its average price for the year came in around $800 below current spot, with each $100m lift in the gold price equating to $70-80m in profit. The ~$400 million paid out over the interim and final dividends clocked up to ~40% of all dividends ever paid by the company to 2024. Talk about a gold boom. Those strong cash flows are expected to continue into 2026, with MD Lawrie Conway resisting the temptation other miners have given in to, keeping prices for resource and reserve shells where they are to preserve margins. He previously issued a note of caution to the gold sector at this month's Diggers and Dealers mining forum, warning that while gold prices were strong today they shouldn't just be chased higher and that at some point they will reverse.

Star Minerals (ASX:SMS) It was a quiet week for the Mid West WA gold explorer, which is planning to start mining at the small Tumblegum South gold project in the first quarter of 2026. That could be a tidy little money spinner, with pre-production costs of just $700,000 to $1.5 million predicted on a mine that would generate $9.4-19.6m in cash flow on just 11,800-15,900oz of gold production. And that's at prices ranging from $3000-3800/oz, well below current levels. Mining approvals are in train, with the new streamlined process for small mining operations under the Mining Amendment Act 2022 to come into effect with the laws on September 9 this year. There was a touch of intrigue this week, with Star's creeping share price prompting a trading halt on Thursday. It's due to end on Monday when Star exits the halt to respond to not only the speeding ticket, but also with some much anticipated RC drilling results. Only time will tell what's in store. Dateline Resources (ASX:DTR) Yet more enthusiasm for Donald Trump's (apparent) favourite ASX name this week, having ridden the wave of support from the US Department of Defense and Apple for the nearby Mountain Pass rare earths mine higher this year. Its 1.1Moz Colosseum gold mine in California sits around 10km from MP Materials. It doesn't have any rare earths resources yet, in spite of what commentary from the States and the frightfully named Truth Social might have you believe. But DTR did confirm some high priority rare earths drilling targets in a 3D magnetotelluric survey, identifying a large resistive anomaly with signatures characteristic of carbonatite hosted REE systems. Dateline, too, copped a speeding ticket this week, telling the ASX there was no new info to report outside the Monday announcement on the MT survey. We're now talking a $640m market cap and +5300% gain for DTR this year so far. Good if you can get it.

Closing Bell: ASX knocks it out of the park, hitting five straight days of record highs
ASX closes out week-long rally on new record high of 8938 points Market set a new intraday high every day this week Broad sector strength, led by financials and materials From strength to strength The ASX's trade performance this week has been nothing short of remarkable. Today, the ASX 200 lifted by 0.73% or 64.8 points to 8938.6 points, a new all-time high. Every single trading day this week marked a new intraday high. In fact, Wednesday was the only day the ASX didn't finish higher than it started. We can thank CBA's losses for that one. An interest rate cut from the RBA, an extended rally on Wall Street, as-expected labour data and some stellar corporate earnings reports were all waving green – or perhaps red? – flags for the bulls this week. Looking ahead, we've got another raft of earnings calls from big names coming up, which could extend the rally further – or sink it. Keep an eye out for results from Ampol (ASX:ALD), A2 Milk (ASX:A2M), BHP (ASX:BHP), BlueScope (ASX:BSL), Bega Cheese (ASX:BGA), CSL (ASX:CSL), Domain (ASX:DHG), Santos (ASX:STO), Telix Pharma (ASX:TLX) and Zip (ASX:ZIP) next week. Today's rally was a team effort, with 9 of 11 sector players doing their part. No participation awards for consumer staples, which was essentially flat, and info tech, shedding just 0.16pc. The technology sector has had a rough time of it lately, down 2.39% for the week despite our record breaking performance. On the other hand, the ASX 200 Resources is back in fine form, recovering from a bit of a slump yesterday with a three-pronged rally. Gold stocks Meteoric Resources (ASX:MEI), Meeka Metals (ASX:MEK) and Greatland Resources (ASX:GGP) each gained about 5%. Lithium stocks also made progress. Liontown (ASX:LTR) bumped up 6.2%, while Pilbara Minerals (ASX:PLS) added 2% and Mineral Resources (ASX:MIN) about the same. Iron ore miners Rio Tinto (ASX:RIO) ticked up 1.4%, Fortescue (ASX:FMG) 1.3%, BHP (ASX:BHP) 1% and mid cap Mount Gibson Iron (ASX:MGX) jumped 5.3%.

Results from a maiden drilling program on one of the three tenements – Lameroo – peaked at 356 parts per million total rare earths from about 18m of depth, a promising indication of rare earths presence. Alice Queen (ASX:AQX) has ticked off another milestone at the Horn Island gold project, registering a 15-year mining lease application for the asset. MD Andrew Buxton says the time is right to advance the project to the next step, as the company has received strong expressions of interest from potential development partners. Great Western Exploration (ASX:GTE) has defined what it believes is a large volcanic hosted massive sulphide copper-gold system at Yerrida North project. GTE used a close-spaced ground gravity survey to vector in on the core of the system, which Great Western reckons is similar to the nearby DeGrussa copper mine. DeGrussa produced up to 300k tonnes of copper concentrate per year during its operation, which ran from 2012 to 2022.

Escalante-backed fintech WeMoney doubles down on WA roots as it eyes ASX listing
Laurence Escalante-backed WeMoney is on the path to an ASX listing even before it turns a decade old, its chief says, as the WA-founded fintech charts ambitious local expansion plans. The financial wellness app, founded by former National Australia Bank banker Dan Jovevski, aims to help people manage earnings by using artificial intelligence to detect their spending patterns and make suggestions on where to save cash. With the app already clocking over one million downloads in Australia since it went live in late 2020, Mr Jovevski is now charting the business' next phase of growth. 'We've always had a desire to become a public company and for our particular business, it makes a lot of sense because the growth (trajectory) we're currently on, there may not be an option to raise money privately,' he said. 'We're not going to rush into it . . . but our general goal now is to (list on the ASX) within the next three years based on our current growth rate.' All of that would be done from WA, Mr Jovevski said. WeMoney on Friday unveiled its new headquarters on St Georges Terrace and plans to create 50 news jobs across data science, AI development and product design within three years, with a strong focus on early-career professionals and recent graduates. 'The office is symbolic because it plants our roots here in WA, but also sends a signal to the broader tech community that more companies should (establish) offices here because the talent pool and density is phenomenal,' Mr Jovevski said. It comes after WeMoney in April secured $12 million in funding — valuing the enterprise at $100m — led by Virtual Gaming Worlds founder Mr Escalante's family office. The round also attracted support from RAC's venture capital arm BetterLabs and Mastercard. The funds raised were used for research and development. With 80,000 monthly active users, Mr Jovevski pointed to the persistent high cost-of-living pressures as being 'an accelerant' of its growth. 'About half of Australians are living pay cheque to pay cheque,' he said, with higher interest rates and housing costs crunching people's incomes. 'People are still struggling even amidst the interest rate cuts and what's been a real catalyst for our growth is people wanting to get more control and transparency over their money and their finances.' Mr Jovevski said on average, its customers saved $335 a month by using the WeMoney app. 'One of the outcomes were really proud of is in a short nine months of using WeMoney, our members report that their credit health improves by 63 points,' he said.
