Latest Asx Small Caps News

Great Southern Mining has returned high-grade gold intercepts from the first 19 RC holes at Golden Boulder, including 2m at 10.72 g/t. The results extend mineralisation down dip and leave most of the 14,000m program still to come.

Forrestania Resources has agreed to acquire four granted Western Australian exploration licences at Skeleton Rocks for a stated $250,000 consideration. The deal remains subject to due diligence, with the company yet to choose between cash and shares as payment.

Nexus Minerals has secured firm commitments for a A$5.4 million placement to fund drilling and exploration across its Wallbrook Gold Project and NSW Mineral Project. The raise is priced below recent market benchmarks and is expected to lift cash above A$8.7 million before costs.

Metal Hawk has secured $1.2 million from sophisticated investors as RC drilling begins at the Numbat lode in Western Australia. The campaign will test whether the company’s strongest Leinster South gold intercept extends along strike and at depth.

Sunshine Metals has upgraded the economics of its Liontown project, forecasting A$179.8 million in net operating cashflow after capital over a 66-month mine life. The study points to mid-2027 mining, but depends on approvals, Mt Moss commissioning and a preliminary plan carrying a plus or minus 30% accuracy range.

Bellavista Resources is advancing a 15,000-metre drilling campaign and early development studies at Pickle Crow, while assay results have been pushed into October after Canadian laboratory delays. At Brumby, continuity drilling is complete and CSIRO column leach testwork is being prepared.

Dataworks Group has lodged a prospectus for a non-renounceable entitlement offer targeting A$1.24 million, alongside a committed A$3 million placement. The raising would fund debt repayment, working capital and contract mobilisation, but also materially expand the company’s share count and option pool.

Mandrake Resources has secured the final regulatory approval for a planned 3,200-metre gold-copper drilling programme at its Berinka project in the Northern Territory. Mobilisation is scheduled for October, putting the company’s next exploration milestone within reach.

Galileo Mining advanced several PGM, nickel, copper and gold targets at Norseman during FY2026, but a A$4.55 million exploration impairment pushed its annual loss to A$4.67 million. The company ended the year with A$7.48 million in cash and a growing drilling pipeline for Mission Sill and Callisto South.

Empire Resources has identified four magnetic anomalies and prioritised two for drilling at its renamed Bradley Well project in Western Australia. Historical copper intercepts provide geological clues, but the targets remain untested and drilling timing depends on rig availability.

Altitude Minerals has secured a $1.215 million placement and plans a further $1.487 million rights issue to fund drilling at its Nevada gold-silver projects. The raising offers free options, but shareholders who do not participate in the non-renounceable offer face dilution.

AML3D has secured an initial AU$0.5 million order to manufacture three high-pressure copper-nickel components for US Navy nuclear submarines. The deal moves its Ohio operation from qualification programs into paid production, although delivery, testing and commissioning remain outstanding.
