Latest Drill Results News

Resource Minerals International has expanded its exploration push across Tanzania and Saudi Arabia, but auditors flagged a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue without future capital raisings. The ASX-listed explorer ended FY2026 with $2.12 million in cash after raising funds through placements and convertible securities.

Xenora Minerals has reduced its annual loss and lifted cash to A$2.17 million while advancing geochemical targets at the Dudley Lithium Project. The next test is whether those anomalies can justify drilling and support the company’s next funding decision.

Nexus Minerals has more than doubled its Wallbrook Mineral Resource to 631,000 ounces, lifting group resources to 709,000 ounces across Western Australian projects. The expansion comes alongside a $6.53 million FY2026 loss, falling cash reserves and a post-year-end $5.4 million capital raising.

QMines has reported a broad 44-metre copper intersection and high-grade zinc-lead-gold-silver mineralisation from six holes at Mt Chalmers. The results support ongoing Definitive Feasibility Study work, while a hole ending in copper mineralisation and upcoming barge drilling add further exploration interest.

Anax Metals has reported broad, high-grade copper-equivalent intersections at Mons Cupri, including 85.90 metres at 2.89% CuEq. The results support the existing resource model and early mining sequence as Anax works towards financing, FEED completion and a potential Final Investment Decision.

Talonx Resources Limited (ASX:TXR) is positioning its portfolio around two distinct exploration propositions: a near-term maiden resource pathway at Viking’s Beaker 2 prospect and district-scale copper potential at Kihabe in Botswana. The September investor presentation largely repackages previously reported results, rather than announcing a new discovery or resource upgrade.

Southern Hemisphere Mining has reported its strongest Llahuin drilling results yet, but the copper explorer ended FY26 with just $110,027 in cash and a material going-concern uncertainty. The company is relying on further funding, related-party borrowings, asset sales and a possible Chilean VAT refund to keep exploration moving.

Emerald Resources-backed Manda Resources has completed a suite of North Queensland asset acquisitions, lifting its combined global JORC gold resource to 1.33Moz. The vehicle has started drilling and appointed experienced explorer Tara French as CEO ahead of a proposed ASX listing later in 2026.

Magnum Mining has completed a 10,000-metre auger programme at its Piracanjuba North ionic adsorption clay rare earths project in Brazil, shifting its focus to a 32.5km² plateau zone. The company is targeting a maiden JORC 2012 Mineral Resource Estimate in November, but the project remains at an early exploration stage with no declared resource or reserve.

Canterbury Resources has reported a broad copper-molybdenum intercept at Briggs while early core observations suggest its John Hill deposit may extend beyond the current resource boundary. The results support ongoing resource upgrades and feasibility work, but John Hill assays are still pending.

Waratah Minerals has reported its strongest drilling result to date at the Spur Gold Discovery, with a deep hole returning 46 metres at 7.27 g/t gold. The result extends the Consols Zone and supports four high-grade footwall domains, although the project remains at an early exploration stage.

Novo Resources is positioning a A$8 million cash balance and A$37.54 million investment portfolio behind a broad Australian gold, copper and polymetallic exploration push. The strategy brings several drilling catalysts, but also a A$10 million deferred payment due in December and a heavy reliance on future exploration success.
