Latest Construction News

EcoGraf has strengthened the technical and commercial case for its Tanzanian graphite strategy, including a larger Epanko ore reserve and planned downstream processing. But cash fell to A$3.8 million, and auditors flagged a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Aurum Resources has extended gold mineralisation beyond the current resource at its BST1 deposit, with standout intercepts including 2.63 metres at 76.74 g/t gold and 24 metres at 6.31 g/t. The results will feed into a Boundiali resource update targeted for early Q4 2026 and a definitive feasibility study due late this year.

WIN Metals has lodged two major Western Australian permit applications covering the proposed restart of its Radio Gold Project. The milestone advances the project toward construction, but funding, approvals and a final investment decision remain outstanding.

Bannerman Energy has completed CNOL’s US$320.4 million strategic investment in the Etango uranium project, giving the joint venture approximately US$303 million in cash and a debt-free construction pathway. The project now moves towards a Final Investment Decision and full-scale construction targeted for Q4 2026.

Volt Group delivered a steep lift in HY26 revenue, adjusted EBITDA, profit and operating cash flow, with the 4D Delta acquisition providing the largest contribution. The mining technology company also expanded its Westgold solar-lighting fleet and advanced Wescone’s crusher technology.

Australian Rare Earths has converted Koppamurra from an exploration story into a defined rare earths development case, with an A$858 million after-tax PFS NPV and a maiden Ore Reserve. The next test is less geological than financial: the company must fund the path from pilot processing to construction while carrying a material going-concern warning.

Stavely Minerals has outlined a potentially valuable 13-year copper-gold-silver project, but its latest annual report makes clear that funding remains the immediate constraint. The company ended June with A$3.1 million in cash and an auditor-flagged material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

Mont Royal Resources has used its first post-merger annual report to set out the scale of the Ashram rare earths project, while flagging the funding, permitting and technical work still ahead. The updated study outlines a 30-year operation with a C$2.03 billion post-tax NPV, but remains a preliminary assessment rather than a development guarantee.

Sunshine Metals reduced its annual loss and ended June with $20.6 million in cash, but its auditor flagged a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The warning comes as Sunshine funds the Mt Moss processing conversion, faces a $10 million deferred payment and targets first gold in mid-2027.

Lake Resources will issue 67.5 million shares to raise A$3 million for work on its Kachi lithium project in Argentina. The shares are priced at a 4.6% premium to recent trading, although the raise adds another layer of dilution while the project advances toward construction-phase engineering.

VRX Silica has assembled much of the commercial and regulatory case for Arrowsmith North, including 960,000 tonnes per annum of binding offtakes and a reported A$179.2 million project NPV. The harder test now is funding construction while final approvals, logistics contracts and a final investment decision remain outstanding.

EcoGraf’s preliminary review has identified potential to lift Epanko Stage 1 production from 73,000 to 87,600 tonnes per annum, while reducing first-10-year C1 costs by 5.8%. The higher-output case remains subject to further engineering, financing work and a Final Investment Decision.
