Resolute Mining has approved the final investment decision for its Doropo Gold Project in Côte d’Ivoire, initiating construction in the first half of 2026 and aiming to boost annual gold output beyond 500,000 ounces by 2028.

One stock nearly doubled, another jumped more than 40%, and a finance heavyweight stayed elevated after a merger shock. In resources, the winners were mostly tied to “what was bought” or “what was funded”, while the laggards were often the ones where early optimism quickly turned into selling.

Fluorspar stole the week as OD6 ripped higher, while a fresh wave of trading halts and reopenings produced fast reversals. Rare earth processing deals, big funding packages and takeover timetables kept investors busy across small caps.

Resolute Mining has reported a substantial 60% increase in its gold Mineral Resources and a 55% rise in Ore Reserves, driven by strategic acquisitions and exploration success across West Africa. The Doropo project in Côte d’Ivoire now anchors over a third of the company’s reserves, signaling a new growth phase.

Rare earths and gold dominated the tape, with one small-cap rare earth explorer ripping more than 70% on a single drilling headline. Gold producers, meanwhile, kept turning high bullion prices into dividends, buy-backs and bigger balance sheets.

Resolute Mining Limited reported a robust financial turnaround in 2025, posting a $126.7 million net profit driven by higher gold prices and cost efficiencies despite lower production volumes. The granting of the Doropo mining permit and strategic asset sales mark key milestones in its West African expansion.

Resolute Mining has outlined its 2026 production guidance targeting up to 275,000 ounces of gold and revealed ambitious plans to more than double output by 2028 through key African project expansions.

A single drill program in WA delivered a once-a-year spike, while several small caps fell hard after reopening with price gaps. This week also saw big money raised for gold and uranium builds, and a run of resource upgrades across critical minerals.

Resolute Mining has been granted a 14-year mining permit for its Doropo Gold Project in Côte d’Ivoire, clearing the way for construction to start in mid-2026 and supporting its ambition to surpass 500,000 ounces of gold production annually by 2028.

A takeover premium blew the doors off the Materials board this week, while one discounted equity raise did the opposite. Uranium names kept climbing on real production progress, and rare earths stayed in favour as governments and buyers circle supply.

A takeover offer lit up small caps, while one high-growth software name slid hard despite strong sector news. Resources dominated the winners list, but investors still punished dilution and discounted fundraisings.

Resolute Mining capped 2025 with robust gold production and a strong cash position, unveiling a major update to its Doropo project that underpins ambitious growth plans targeting over 500,000 ounces annually by 2028.
