New Age Exploration reported its strongest exploration results to date across three projects, including a 11.0 g/t gold intercept at Wagyu and a new mineralised zone at Lammerlaw. But the explorer’s $4.21 million loss, $2.48 million impairment and auditor-flagged going concern uncertainty leave its next drilling campaign dependent on further funding.

Pan African Resources expects FY26 EPS to rise as much as 151% and headline EPS to more than triple, driven by higher realised gold prices and sales. The company also projects further production growth in FY27, with formal results due next week.

Image Resources has expanded the Mineral Resource at its Durack mineral sands project by 43% to 37.7 million tonnes, while lifting contained heavy minerals and zircon content. The upgraded estimate gives the company a stronger technical base for an economic evaluation due later in 2026, although changes to the cut-off and mineral definitions complicate direct comparisons.

Gorilla Gold Mines has extended its Lakeview drilling story with a 7.0-metre intercept grading 12.6g/t gold, while securing the final permit for underground activities at Sovereign. Metallurgical testing across three Comet Vale deposits also returned average 94.6% gold recovery after 48 hours at a relatively coarse grind size.

H3 Energy says four prospective partners have completed initial evaluations of its Warro gas project and been invited to submit commercial proposals.

No assay results have been reported, but the drilling could clarify whether shallow mineralisation is linked to a larger intrusive system at depth.

Emyria has secured a limited in-person speaking position at a US FDA hearing examining how psychedelic medicines could be delivered safely and at scale. The appearance gives the ASX-listed company a regulatory platform, but does not represent FDA approval, funding or a commercial agreement.

Kapstream Investment Trust will begin a 12-month on-market buy-back of its fully paid ordinary units, but has not disclosed a target quantity or dollar commitment. The responsible entity can pause or end the programme without notice.

Antares Metals has secured $2.57 million to fund maiden drilling at its Quinns project and continued exploration across Queensland and Western Australia. The raise comes with substantial potential dilution, with more than half the shares and all attaching options still requiring shareholder approval.

Bannerman Energy has completed a fully underwritten A$124 million institutional placement, giving the Etango uranium project a funding pathway through construction and ramp-up. The company now turns to a targeted Q4 2026 Final Investment Decision, while a further non-underwritten shareholder offer could raise up to A$10 million.
