"FDA designation of new chemical entity represents an achievement of a major milestone for the company's technology. As the first ever hyperpolarised noble gas inhaled oral contrast agent approved, this designation provides the important first mover protection envisioned under the Hatch Waxman legislation," Chief Executive Richard Hullihen says.

Expects the admission of the shares to occur on February 3. Notes that a deferred consideration of GBP107,000 will be paid in shares, subject to certain performance conditions being met by February 2025. "The acquisition will bring three new channel partners to Tialis, supporting the diversification of Tialis' partner base and will also build on the existing relationship that Tialis has with its largest channel partner," the company says.

"Following the successful acquisition of Location One in December, the opening of these two new branches is a further demonstration of our joint commitment to continue providing high-quality equipment and customer service levels to the growing high-end film and TV market in the UK. They will help to expand the community at Longcross and Bridgend, to promote significant growth opportunities for our extensive partner network and we are excited to officially welcome Location One to the sites, to continue to integrate the teams," CEO Marsden Proctor comments.

CleanTech Lithium PLC - Jersey-based lithium exploration and development company focused on Chile - Says the Chilean authority granted it all of the exploration licences at the prospective greenfield project. Plans to start an exploration drilling programme at the project in the coming weeks. "The planned drilling will aim to establish if the brine aquifer is enriched in lithium. We will also carry out a field and desk-top study on the potential for a surface evaporite lithium deposit in the project area. Drilling programmes to expand existing resource estimates at our Laguna Verde and Francisco Basin projects are ongoing with Llamara providing additional exploration potential. We are not aware of any exploration company in the lithium sector that has progressed resource drill programmes at three projects concurrently, which further highlights the quality of the team we have in Chile," CEO Aldo Boitano says.

Capricorn Energy PLC - Edinburgh-based oil and gas exploration and development company - Appoints six new members to its board of directors, being Chris Cox, Maria Gordon, Richard Herbert, Hesham Mekawi, Tom Pitts, and Craig van der Laan.

Says that its board will be conducting a comprehensive strategic review of its business and "several potential directions for the future". "Each new member of the board joined Capricorn because we believe in the company's potential and see untapped opportunities to maximise value. This transition presents an opportunity for a fresh start: to identify what the company needs without preconceptions. As a first step to achieve this goal, we will conduct a thorough review of all available strategic directions before we determine the best path forward," Chair Craig van der Laan comments.
