Latest Mineral Exploration News

Raiden Resources posted a wider FY2026 loss after impairing A$8.86 million of exploration assets, while its cash and term deposits fell to A$11.98 million. The company is now concentrating on Brazil’s Crixás gold tailings project, Bulgarian exploration and a proposed divestment of most of Mt Sholl.

Renegade Exploration has sharpened its portfolio around Nevada and Yukon exploration, with several targets moving towards drilling after high-grade surface results. But the ASX-listed junior ended FY2026 with just $59,869 in cash and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

Cullen Resources posted a $340,251 FY2026 profit after selling its Wyloo iron ore royalty for $1.5 million. The result came with a qualified audit opinion over its remaining iron ore-related assets and a warning that further capital raisings will be needed.

Miramar Resources has outlined a maiden 39,764-ounce Inferred gold resource at its Gidji joint venture, but its annual report also flags material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. A September placement has improved liquidity, though further funding and drilling remain central to the story.

Litchfield Minerals has expanded its Harts Range exploration model, raised A$8 million and ended FY2026 with A$4.6 million in cash. The opportunity is growing, but the auditor flagged material uncertainty over the company’s ability to fund future operations.

Australasian Metals has paired a sharply smaller annual loss with a $1.05 million placement aimed at exploring two proposed Côte d’Ivoire lithium projects. The projects remain an option, not an acquisition, while May Queen drilling is being prepared in Queensland.

CZR Resources has converted the A$75 million Robe Mesa sale into a debt-free exploration war chest, while Croydon drilling expands its flagship gold target. The next test is whether exploration momentum and the proposed Zuleika takeover can create value beyond the one-off transaction gain.

Piche Resources has secured firm commitments for a $1.1 million placement at 1.8 cents a share, with attaching options offering a further potential funding pathway. The capital arrives while the company searches for a new CEO and reviews its project portfolio.

Resource Minerals International has expanded its exploration push across Tanzania and Saudi Arabia, but auditors flagged a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue without future capital raisings. The ASX-listed explorer ended FY2026 with $2.12 million in cash after raising funds through placements and convertible securities.

Nelson Resources has made Gold Point the centrepiece of its exploration strategy, with underground drilling underway in Nevada and exploration assets rising to A$2.81 million.

Barys Resources has opened a 1-for-1 renounceable entitlement offer priced at $0.01 a share, targeting gross proceeds of up to approximately $2.6 million. The partially underwritten raise is scheduled to close on 7 October 2026.

Infinity Metals has reported a sharply smaller FY2026 loss as it shifts its exploration focus towards the United States and Australia. The pivot follows rejection of its San José mining licence application, a A$2.25 million placement and a growing portfolio of early-stage copper, molybdenum and tin targets.
