PDI Gold’s first full annual report after its Robex merger shows a transformed West African gold business with US$193.7 million in cash and two producing mines. The statutory result remains a US$63.7 million loss, while Bankan’s next phase still depends on an exploitation permit from Guinea.

Odyssey Gold has secured a native vegetation clearing permit and a new mining lease at Tuckanarra, while refurbishment work at the planned Kirkalocka processing facility moves ahead. The first toll milling parcel is targeted for June 2027, but a required joint venture agreement remains unresolved.

Amplitude Energy has approved development of its East Coast Supply Project, targeting first gas in 2028 and gross production of up to 90 TJ a day. The decision also adds an exploration well to the campaign, lifting FY27 capital expenditure guidance by up to $80 million.

Delta Lithium has outlined Q4 reconnaissance drilling across six Yinnetharra targets, including two gold anomalies supported by high-grade rock-chip and historic drill results. At Mt Ida, new lithium, tantalum and rubidium intersections are feeding a resource update while a 1-tonne metallurgical program moves ahead.

EQ Resources has completed a sharp financial turnaround, moving from solvency concerns to a A$7.1 million FY2026 profit and A$28.2 million of cash. The recovery comes with lower annual production, serious safety shortcomings and substantial dilution, leaving execution as the test for its A$39 million Mt Carbine expansion.

G50 Corp has moved from early-stage exploration towards a two-project drilling campaign, backed by a post-year-end A$26.25 million placement. The company remains loss-making and reliant on exploration success, but says the capital allows uninterrupted work at its Arizona and Nevada projects.

Black Cat Syndicate’s gold inventory has fallen to 2.31Moz of Resources and 272koz of Reserves after mining depletion and model revisions. The producer is responding with up to $35 million of FY27 exploration spending while targeting 80-90koz of output.

Cadoux says resampling of 21 historical Danube drill holes has extended rare earth-zircon mineralisation up to 1.4 kilometres north of its June Exploration Target and opened a southern target area. The results move the project towards planned infill drilling, a maiden Mineral Resource and a Scoping Study, but key mineralogy and access hurdles remain.

Ark Mines has reported a FY2026 profit after receiving Queensland-backed funding, while its Sandy Mitchell rare earths resource expanded to 379.4 million tonnes after year end. The project now has development approvals and commercial-grade testwork behind it, but no Ore Reserve or mining decision yet.

Athena Resources has expanded its Byro Magnetite Project resource to 76.3 million tonnes and begun drilling at Narryer, the prospect earmarked for potential early development. The progress came with a $1.11 million FY2026 loss, a non-binding joint venture and fresh funding still supporting an exploration-stage business.

Telix has secured FDA Fast Track designation for BiPASS, its Phase 3 program testing 68Ga-PSMA-PET alongside MRI before prostate biopsy. The milestone may support closer FDA engagement and faster review of a planned NDA, but the indication remains investigational and no BiPASS results were disclosed.

Tarrina Resources has identified five kilometre-scale IOCG target zones at Walparuta after soil sampling returned copper values up to 2,891 ppm and gold up to 466 ppb. The planned 23-hole drill campaign remains subject to native title, heritage, land access and government approvals.
