Tivan has won approval to add 50 square kilometres to its Baucau copper-gold project in Timor-Leste, securing ground over a large magnetic anomaly. The expansion comes as the company acknowledges an executive chairman’s personal X post previewed an assay announcement before ASX release and was not authorised under its disclosure policy.

Sarytogan Graphite has intersected 318 metres of copper mineralisation from surface at its Ilksan prospect in central Kazakhstan, including a higher-grade 15.2-metre zone grading 0.40% copper. The result extends the system identified in an earlier hole, with assays from a deeper 452-metre hole due in the coming weeks.

Cosmo Metals has secured approval for up to 2,200 metres of maiden drilling at the Mona copper-gold-silver prospect in New South Wales. The campaign will test whether striking grades from historic mine dumps reflect concealed sulphide mineralisation below the old workings.

Tivan has secured a 50 km² exploration concession immediately north of its Turiscai project in Timor-Leste, subject to formal regulatory grant. The addition would lift the project to eight licences covering approximately 394 km² ahead of planned maiden drilling in the fourth quarter.

Kincora Copper has received a further US$1.5 million from the staged sale of its Mongolian subsidiaries, taking proceeds to US$6.5 million. A final US$3.5 million remains scheduled by the end of 2026, subject to transaction milestones and conditions.

Javelin Minerals is 150 metres into a deep diamond hole aimed at testing an untested magnetic anomaly beneath its Coogee gold-copper resource in Western Australia. No assay results have been reported, but the drilling could clarify whether shallow mineralisation is linked to a larger intrusive system at depth.

Kingfisher Mining has remade itself around a 700 square kilometre New South Wales exploration portfolio, with Copper Blow emerging as the flagship after high-grade drilling. The shift came alongside a $1.16 million FY2026 loss, $1.21 million in cash and an explicit reliance on future funding.

Aeris Resources delivered FY26 production within guidance while building a much larger investment program around Tritton, including the Constellation and Mallee Bull developments. The company enters FY27 with no debt, $202 million in cash and receivables, and a sharper test of whether higher spending can convert expanded resources into longer mine life and production.

Australian Critical Minerals says one extended drill hole at its Flint project in Peru has strengthened the case for a near-surface epithermal system and a deeper concealed porphyry target. The interpretation remains conceptual, with no economic-grade intersections or mineral resource reported.

Chalice Mining has confirmed a broad copper-silver-gold system at its Deep Blue target in Western Australia, with first-pass drilling extending across 1.2km of strike. The early results are low grade, but the system remains open within a largely untested 30km exploration belt.

Red Hill Minerals has more than doubled FY2026 net profit to A$20.1 million as its Onslow Iron royalty delivered A$28.8 million in income. The ASX-listed miner declared a fully franked final dividend of 10.8 cents per share, taking FY2026 distributions to 22.4 cents per share.

Green & Gold Minerals (ASX:GG1) is raising $3.2 million through a 1-for-2 renounceable rights issue priced at 10 cents per share to fund aggressive drilling programs targeting copper-silver-tin at Herberton and gold resource expansion at Chillagoe's Mt Wandoo.
