Latest Catalyst Metals News

Catalyst Metals delivered record Plutonic Gold Belt production and a sharp lift in earnings during FY2026, while its Ore Reserve base climbed to 1.971 million ounces. The company now has four operating mines, a large cash buffer and a pipeline aimed at doubling annual production, but safety performance and execution remain important tests.

Star Minerals has completed mining to 445mRL at Tumblegum South, with mineralised material stockpiled and awaiting transport to the mill. The next test is whether drilling, processing and a cash balance covering an estimated 2.09 quarters can carry the project into production.

Kaiser Reef has fully repaid its 1,872-ounce Auramet gold loan using cash generated by the Henty mine, removing a recurring delivery obligation worth about A$0.6 million a month at current gold prices. The company still owes Catalyst Metals 2,400 ounces through October 2030.

CZR Resources has proposed spending up to $15 million of existing cash on a share buy-back if its Zuleika Gold takeover succeeds and shareholders approve the plan. The transaction could leave Mark Creasy and associated entities with more than 56% of the combined group if they do not participate.

Albright Metals has reported a sharply wider FY2026 loss and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company’s Canadian Golden Pike project has advanced to a 54,200-ounce JORC resource, but further development depends on funding.

Catalyst Metals has established about 2Moz of probable Ore Reserves across the Plutonic Gold Belt, enough to underpin a targeted 200koz of annual production for roughly 10 years. The milestone strengthens the company’s growth case, but delivery still depends on mine development, permitting and conversion of additional resources.

Lodestar Minerals has received all assays from a 12,417-metre, 106-hole RC drilling program at Ned’s Creek, supporting its existing exploration target across three gold prospects. A maiden Mineral Resource Estimate is now expected in the second half of October, although reported widths remain subject to geological interpretation and true-width confirmation.

Catalyst Metals has converted the Cinnamon underground discovery into a maiden 232koz Ore Reserve, supporting a 7.5-year mine plan at the Plutonic Gold Belt. The deposit’s total Resource has grown 370% to 541koz, although part of the production target still relies on Inferred material.

Catalyst Metals has increased the Trident underground Ore Reserve by 32% to 524,000 ounces, supporting a planned mine life of more than 10 years. The result strengthens the company’s ambition to build a 2Moz Reserve base across the Plutonic Belt, although further growth depends on drilling and mine execution.

Catalyst Metals has lifted the Keillor gold Resource from 81koz to 307koz after a major drilling campaign, while the operating mine ramps up near the Plutonic processing plant. The company expects an Ore Reserve update to extend Keillor’s initial three-year mine life.

Star Minerals has transitioned from explorer to producer with mining underway at its Tumblegum South Gold Project and anticipates first gold revenue in the December quarter of 2026.

Catalyst Metals' latest infill drilling at the Cinnamon gold deposit delivers thick, high-grade intercepts, underpinning plans for bulk underground mining and supporting an imminent Resource and Reserve update.
