Latest Drill Results News

Adavale Resources is presenting its 610-square-kilometre Parkes Gold Project as a belt-scale opportunity with 383,300 ounces of reported gold resources and existing processing infrastructure. The next test is whether metallurgical work, a scoping study and funding can turn that inventory into a credible development plan.

Middle Island Resources has outlined a much larger Serbian exploration portfolio after acquiring Konstantin Resources, with Bobija emerging as a broad shallow gold-silver polymetallic system. But the ASX explorer also reported a $3.35 million loss, $2.39 million in cash and an auditor-flagged material uncertainty over its ability to continue without further capital.

Killi Resources has emerged from FY2026 with $14.68 million in cash and a far larger strategic ambition, centred on its proposed 80% acquisition of the Lodestone Iron Ore Project. The company remains loss-making and the transaction was still conditional at year-end, but a 20,000-metre drilling campaign is now targeting rapid resource growth.

Avira Resources has expanded its Mt Cattlin drilling story with encouraging high-grade results, but the explorer’s annual report carries a material uncertainty over its ability to continue without further capital. The company ended FY2026 with $1.45 million in cash against a $986,980 loss and $1.21 million in operating and investing outflows.

Krakatoa Resources advanced drilling at its flagship Zopkhito antimony-gold project in Georgia, but the exploration push more than doubled its annual loss and reduced cash to $739,459. The company subsequently raised $4 million, highlighting the funding needed to keep moving towards a maiden JORC-compliant resource.

Reedy Lagoon is relying on shareholder approval for a $1.8 million underwritten placement after ending the year with $44,416 in cash and a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The recapitalisation would fund exploration, but comes with substantial dilution and a staged repayment of related-party debt.

Sabre Resources has expanded into a 4,000-square-kilometre Northern Territory gold and copper-gold portfolio, but its FY2026 loss more than doubled as cash declined. The company now has drilling underway and fresh capital, alongside a growing funding and dilution burden.

Emperor Energy has secured NOPSEMA approval for the Judith-2 appraisal well, removing a major regulatory barrier ahead of targeted drilling in April 2027. The well will test a 166 Bcf contingent gas resource and investigate deeper prospective sands, although commercial conversion remains unproven.

Larvotto Resources has extended high-grade antimony-gold-tungsten mineralisation at Clarks Gully about 100 metres beyond its 2025 resource model, with drilling also identifying several hanging-wall lodes. The results could support a larger resource and a potential underground feed source for Hillgrove, but assays, modelling and permitting work remain outstanding.

Delta Lithium has outlined Q4 reconnaissance drilling across six Yinnetharra targets, including two gold anomalies supported by high-grade rock-chip and historic drill results. At Mt Ida, new lithium, tantalum and rubidium intersections are feeding a resource update while a 1-tonne metallurgical program moves ahead.

Athena Resources has expanded its Byro Magnetite Project resource to 76.3 million tonnes and begun drilling at Narryer, the prospect earmarked for potential early development. The progress came with a $1.11 million FY2026 loss, a non-binding joint venture and fresh funding still supporting an exploration-stage business.

New Murchison Gold has reported high-grade drilling across three Lydia deposits near its Crown Prince operation, led by a 1m interval at 47.20g/t gold. The results define shallow mineralised zones, but remain outside the current Lydia resource and still require further drilling and modelling.
