Tolu Minerals has set out a Q1 2027 restart target for its Tolukuma gold-silver mine in Papua New Guinea, backed by a recently upgraded 909,000-ounce resource and refurbishment of an existing processing plant. The company says it has sufficient funding to reach production, but the timetable remains dependent on mine development, plant work and operating execution.

Locksley Resources has halted active field exploration across its Mojave antimony and rare earths project after antimony prices fell more than 57% from mid-2025 peaks. The strategic reset came as the company reported a widened FY26 loss of A$15.65 million and shifted attention to copper-gold assets in New South Wales.

SQX Resources Limited (ASX:SQX) has emerged from a transformational year with two advanced US gold projects, broad shallow mineralisation at Red Bird and exceptional underground assays at Williams. The exploration gains came alongside a $1.83 million loss, falling cash and a further $2.47 million capital raising completed after year-end.

Middle Island Resources has outlined a much larger Serbian exploration portfolio after acquiring Konstantin Resources, with Bobija emerging as a broad shallow gold-silver polymetallic system. But the ASX explorer also reported a $3.35 million loss, $2.39 million in cash and an auditor-flagged material uncertainty over its ability to continue without further capital.

Avira Resources has expanded its Mt Cattlin drilling story with encouraging high-grade results, but the explorer’s annual report carries a material uncertainty over its ability to continue without further capital. The company ended FY2026 with $1.45 million in cash against a $986,980 loss and $1.21 million in operating and investing outflows.

Cyprium Metals says its long-delayed Nifty Copper Complex is entering the final commissioning phase, with first copper cathode production expected in the December quarter of 2026. The restart is backed by A$121 million in equity raisings, a refinanced US$27.3 million loan facility and A$68.5 million in cash at year-end.

Tempest Minerals has reported a $4.62 million FY2026 loss after impairing $3.28 million of exploration assets, while cash fell to $969,693. The company retains exposure to Range gold drilling, the Remorse iron deposit and a $3.08 million Capricorn Metals shareholding, but says further funding will be needed to sustain exploration.

Kalgoorlie Gold Mining has finished FY2026 with a larger exploration footprint at Pinjin, deeper mineralisation at Kirgella Gift and Providence, and high-grade results at Lighthorse. The company has also raised $3.4 million after year end, although its exploration-stage balance sheet remains dependent on continued access to capital.

E79 Gold has secured the final tenement at its 67 square kilometre Cue Gold Project in Western Australia, clearing the stated tenure hurdle ahead of a planned drilling campaign. More than 12,000 metres of aircore and reverse circulation drilling is scheduled to begin in early November, subject to heritage clearance.

Golden Horse Minerals has reported its strongest gold intercept at Hopes Hill, with RC hole 26HHRC179 returning 4 metres at 73.3 grams per tonne gold from 88 metres. The result includes visible gold and a 293.2 gram-metre intercept, but its nuggety character means follow-up drilling and sampling will be crucial.

Magmatic Resources has used FY2026 to turn the newly acquired Weebo Gold Project into its main exploration engine, while Fortescue-funded drilling continued to test copper-gold targets at Myall. The company ended the year with $5.54 million in cash, but a larger annual loss and continued exploration spending keep execution and funding firmly in focus.

Peregrine Gold has reported a $3.47 million FY2026 loss and $3.56 million operating cash outflow, with its auditor highlighting material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Against that financial pressure, the ASX-listed explorer is preparing RC drilling across two high-grade channel iron prospects and advancing several gold targets in the Pilbara.
