Enova Mining reduced its half-year loss to $790,000, but an explicit going-concern warning puts future funding at the centre of its rare earth exploration story. The company ended June with $723,000 in cash while advancing several high-grade exploration targets across Brazil and Australia.

HiTech Group Australia has completed its acquisition of selected Hudson Global Resources assets, expanding its workforce solutions platform across five Australian jurisdictions. The deal lowers the upfront price but leaves some customer, government panel and contractor novations unfinished during the transition.

Pan African Resources has completed a definitive feasibility study for a ZAR3.68 billion Soweto tailings project with a projected 29.55% real ungeared IRR. The proposed operation could add up to 40,000 ounces of annual gold production, but financing, permits and board approval remain ahead of a targeted December 2026 investment decision.

Atlantic Lithium has reported a year of major progress at its Ewoyaa lithium project, including Ghanaian parliamentary approval of its mining lease and a proposed US$210 million takeover by Zhejiang Huayou Cobalt. But the audited accounts also flag material uncertainty over funding if the scheme does not proceed.

Kalamazoo Resources is moving Ashburton from exploration story to development proposition, backed by a positive Mt Olympus Scoping Study and extensive drilling. The next test is whether the updated resource, feasibility work and funding can turn the project’s preliminary economics into a mineable plan.

Gorilla Gold Mines has lifted its reported Mineral Resource to approximately 2.0Moz of gold after a year of intensive Western Australian drilling. The gain comes with strong exploration momentum, but the company remains pre-revenue and expects to seek further funding.

Ariana Resources has re-released its Dokwe drilling update after adding JORC disclosures, leaving the underlying results unchanged. The announcement reports broad gold intercepts, eight tonnes of samples sent to China for feasibility-level metallurgical testing and further work aimed at advancing the Zimbabwe project’s DFS.

BMC Minerals has moved the Kudz Ze Kayah project through a key regulatory gateway and reported high-grade drilling beyond the current reserve, but its first full year as an ASX-listed company also exposed the funding challenge ahead. The Canadian developer ended FY2026 with US$50.3 million in cash, no revenue and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over going concern.

White Energy has completed its US metallurgical coal and Surat Basin acquisitions, backed by a $15 million placement and a leadership change that puts Nathan Tinkler in the executive chair. The transactions materially expand the company’s asset base, but the announcement provides no production forecasts or development timetable.

A2MP Investments has declared its A$0.05 per share takeover offer for Canyon Resources best and final, with the bid set to close on 21 September unless a competing proposal emerges. The offer remains conditional and will lapse if its minimum acceptance condition is not met.

Australian United Investment Company’s profit surged after its merger with Diversified United Investment, but the headline result was dominated by a one-off acquisition gain. Underlying profit rose 19.9%, while AUI expanded its portfolio to about A$3.1 billion and declared fully franked dividends totalling 28 cents per share.

Vanadium Resources has secured an oversubscribed A$1.0 million placement to advance studies, site work, offtake discussions and project financing for its planned V-Iron Plant in South Africa. The raise gives VR8 fresh development capital, but the project still depends on a scoping study, binding commercial agreements and a much larger funding package.

Aspire Mining has retained the Ovoot project’s 130.1 million-tonne JORC Coal Reserve while redesigning how the Mongolian mine is funded and built. The refreshed model forecasts a US$1.48 billion post-tax NPV10, but depends on debt raising, infrastructure delivery and a 12% Inferred Resource contribution to planned output.

Resolution Minerals has finished its largest-ever exploration program at the Horse Heaven project in Idaho, drilling 42 diamond holes across 12,236 metres. The work sets up a substantial run of gold, tungsten and multi-element assay results, but the completed program has not yet produced new assay data in this announcement.

Crimson Consulting has extended its A$0.73-a-share offer for Kip McGrath to 14 October and says it now has a path to control the company with just over half the register. The bidder says support and intentions represent 50.89% of shares, although part of that figure remains conditional.

CGN Resources has intersected gold at three of four targets in its maiden Christmas Well RC program, with Rocky Mountain Oyster returning the strongest result in fresh rock. The early-stage campaign supports follow-up drilling, but does not yet establish a mineral resource or confirm true widths.

Anson Resources has secured approval for an estimated US$212 million post-performance tax credit tied to its Green River Lithium Project in Utah. The benefit could materially improve the project’s projected economics, but it will only be realised if the project proceeds, generates tax revenue and meets the scheme’s conditions.

Immutep has narrowed eftilagimod alfa’s potential registration pathway to PD-L1-negative head and neck cancer and neoadjuvant soft tissue sarcoma after identifying product differences between manufacturing scales used in earlier studies and TACTI-004. A new 200 L manufacturing run is planned, but replacement trials are not targeted to start until the second half of 2027 and remain subject to regulatory, funding and partnering decisions.

Dubber AI has agreed to acquire selected Daisee assets, including customer contracts and conversation intelligence technology, for up to A$1.25 million. The deal brings Daisee's nearly A$1.7 million of annual recurring revenue into a contact centre AI platform focused on insurance and financial services.

JB Hi-Fi delivered record FY2026 sales of $11.06 billion and lifted its fully franked ordinary dividend by 22.5% to 337 cents per share. The early FY2027 trading update was less assured, with Australian sales and The Good Guys declining in July as shoppers waited for promotions and technology supply remained constrained.

Alkane Resources has lifted group Ore Reserves to 1.374 million ounces after exploration and resource conversion replaced depletion across its operating portfolio. The FY26 update also puts Björkdal’s open-pit restart and Costerfield’s extended mine life into sharper focus.

Maritana Minerals has increased the Burbanks Gold Project’s Mineral Resource by 62% to 755,000 ounces, pushing group resources above 2 million ounces. The growth is concentrated at Burbanks North, but the inventory remains predominantly Inferred and has yet to support an Ore Reserve.

BPM Minerals has secured the final approvals for a maiden approximately 10,000-metre RC drilling campaign at its untested Bonnie and Clyde prospect in Western Australia. Drilling is expected to begin within 5-10 days, putting a more than 6-kilometre gold-in-soil anomaly to its first meaningful test.

Blackpearl Group more than doubled annual recurring revenue to NZ$26.8 million in FY26, but the growth came alongside an NZ$17.8 million loss and a formal material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company says cost reductions, faster cash conversion and its refinanced BNZ facility can support the next phase.
