Latest Drilling News

GreenX Metals has put a conceptual copper-silver target at Tannenberg and a major Poland arbitration award at the centre of its next phase. The annual report also shows the cost of that strategy: a $12.34 million loss, a $4.42 million project impairment and continued reliance on equity funding.

Rubix Resources ended FY2026 with a $1.283 million loss, only $95,001 in cash and a net asset deficit, prompting its auditor to flag a material uncertainty over going concern. The company’s Paperbark drilling produced an encouraging copper signal, but further exploration depends on fresh funding.

Strickland Metals has lifted its Rogozna resource to 9.25 million ounces of gold equivalent, but the exploration company also reported a A$10.39 million FY2026 loss. The cash balance rose sharply after a A$55.11 million placement as the company prepares for studies, permitting and a leadership transition.

Charger Metals has reduced its FY2026 loss and secured $3.75 million from the sale of Bynoe, giving the lithium explorer more room to advance its Lake Johnston assets. The company’s Medcalf resource now stands at 10.6Mt, although further drilling and funding will be needed to test its economic potential.

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.

Silver Mines has built a substantially larger economic case for Bowdens, but the project still needs NSW approval before its 93.5 million ounce reserve can become a mine. The company is now funding the next phase with a A$70 million placement while absorbing dilution and a major royalty buy-back.

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.

Felix Gold advanced bulk extraction, processing and refinery plans at its Alaska antimony project in FY26, but the push came with a larger loss, falling cash and an auditor-documented material uncertainty over going concern. A potential US$18 million Department of Energy award remains subject to negotiation rather than a committed funding source.

Accelerate Resources enters FY2027 with high-grade manganese targets at Woodie Woodie North and new gold zones at Balagundi, but a sharp annual loss and ongoing funding needs remain part of the story. The company plans maiden and follow-up drilling while seeking shareholder approval to rename itself Mango Metals.

Brazilian Rare Earths has identified a new high-grade rare earth system at Sulista South, with mineralisation traced across about 500 metres and grades reaching 13.3% TREO. Step-out and infill drilling at Sulista East has also extended the known footprint and strengthened the case for a larger year-end resource estimate.

Forrestania Resources has lifted the higher-confidence portion of its Lady Ada and Lady Magdalene gold resource by 43%, even as total contained ounces fall 4% to 285,700 ounces. The update strengthens the development case, but most of the resource remains Inferred and the tenements are subject to ongoing legal proceedings.

Cyprium Metals says its long-delayed Nifty Copper Complex is entering the final commissioning phase, with first copper cathode production expected in the December quarter of 2026. The restart is backed by A$121 million in equity raisings, a refinanced US$27.3 million loan facility and A$68.5 million in cash at year-end.
