Golden Mile Resources has reported broad, high-grade surface gold results at its Aurora prospect in Arizona, including 2.38g/t over about 126 metres. The exploration momentum comes alongside a $2.41 million annual loss, $609,757 in cash and an explicit warning that further funding is required.

Conico's statutory loss widened sharply in FY2026, largely because of non-cash share-based payments linked to its recapitalisation. The company ended the year debt free with $2.53 million in cash, but warned that funding remains critical as it prepares for Mt Thirsty drilling.

NewPeak Metals reported a $4.36 million FY2026 profit, but the result was driven mainly by fair-value gains and investment disposals rather than mining revenue. The auditor has flagged a material uncertainty over going concern even after the explorer secured a post-year-end $3.5 million placement.

American Rare Earths has expanded the proposed Cowboy State Mine in Wyoming to a 4.5 million tonne per year operation with a 26-year mine plan and an estimated after-tax NPV of US$1.07 billion.

EQ Resources has completed a sharp financial turnaround, moving from solvency concerns to a A$7.1 million FY2026 profit and A$28.2 million of cash.

Enova Mining has launched a 1-for-4 entitlement offer at A$0.001 a share to raise up to A$495,152 for exploration and working capital. The modest raising sits alongside a proposed A$2 million placement and potential Caraubas acquisition issues that could materially expand the share count.
