Papyrus Australia moved its banana-fibre technology into early commercialisation during FY26, signing an estimated $4.2 million TBS supply contract and delivering commercial-scale samples. But the company ended the year with $257,077 cash, negative equity and an auditor-flagged material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

Bass Oil’s Bunian 6 well has confirmed oil in a previously unproduced zone, with the company targeting a potential threefold increase in Tangai-Sukananti field production. August sales also improved as Cooper Basin exports resumed, while Vanessa and Kiwi advanced toward future gas development.

Five of nine diamond holes at Minrex's Barje deposit have returned the widest and highest-grade intersections drilled there, challenging the historical model of a low-grade central corridor. The results arrive ahead of a maiden JORC resource estimate planned for next quarter.

Iron Road’s largest shareholder has distributed its remaining 59.72% stake just as the company prepares to restart delayed nickel-copper-gold drilling at Irria. The transition also includes the November retirement of long-serving chief executive Larry Ingle, with no successor named.

EcoGraf has begun a European Investment Bank-funded study program worth up to €2 million to test expansion options for its Epanko graphite project and planned battery anode operations. The work could strengthen future financing and development decisions, but it remains a planning exercise rather than a construction commitment.

EVT delivered growth across hotels, cinemas and Thredbo in FY2026 while outlining an approximately $500 million non-core property divestment programme. The group is also reviewing its structure as it redirects capital towards asset-light hotel expansion and considers potential special dividends.

North Stawell Minerals has extended a steep west-dipping gold-bearing structure at Darlington with a 0.5-metre intercept, though the latest grade is well below nearby high-grade results. The company says the trend remains open at depth and along strike, with further drilling needed to test its potential scale.

Antimony Resources has begun trading under the ANT code as its Tecomatlán processing plant in Mexico moves closer to its first processing campaign. About 200 tonnes of mineralised material has been prepared, but assay results and commissioning outcomes are still to come.

Waterco Limited (ASX:WAT) delivered record FY26 EBIT of $23.8 million and lifted net profit after tax 59.6% to $15.4 million, despite only modest revenue growth. The stronger result supports a higher fully franked dividend, but the group is carrying more debt and inventory as it expands manufacturing capacity.

X2M Connect has signed a non-binding two-year MOU with Gateway DC covering data centre development, delivery and platform deployment across Australia and potentially Southeast Asia. The opportunity links Gateway’s planned 120MW-to-2GW-plus Darwin roadmap with X2M’s prospective pipeline exceeding 200MW, but revenue remains subject to future binding agreements.

Liberty Metals’ maiden rock chip program at Oko North has returned four samples above 1 g/t gold, including a peak assay of 2.322 g/t. The reconnaissance results support the company’s interpretation that historical alluvial gold may be sourced from hard rock within its Guyana tenure, but drilling is still required to test continuity and scale.

AuKing Mining has reported a 50-metre interval grading 2.03% TREO from surface at its Tundulu rare earths project in Malawi. The result, from drilling about 400 metres west of earlier holes, supports a broader near-surface mineralised footprint but remains exploration-stage evidence.
