Latest Exploration Targets News

Alice Queen has outlined a potentially lucrative Horn Island development case, but the numbers remain preliminary and depend on further drilling, approvals and funding. The gold explorer ended FY2026 with a A$3.55 million loss and A$3.6 million in cash.

Western Ridge Resources reported a $12.22 million loss for the year ended 30 June 2026, with cash falling to $407,860 and its auditor warning of a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The company is now relying on Keystone drilling and further funding to advance its Nevada exploration strategy.

Basin Energy’s maiden drilling at Newmans has outlined a 3.3 km shallow magnet rare earth corridor within its expanding Sybella-Barkly project. But the ASX-listed explorer remains pre-revenue, reported a larger annual loss and faces a material uncertainty over its ability to continue funding operations.

Lincoln Minerals has moved Minbrie’s Eagle Ridge prospect towards diamond drilling after air core work supported its geological model. But the ASX-listed explorer remains loss-making, cash-burning and dependent on further funding to continue its exploration program.

Peregrine Gold has reported a $3.47 million FY2026 loss and $3.56 million operating cash outflow, with its auditor highlighting material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Against that financial pressure, the ASX-listed explorer is preparing RC drilling across two high-grade channel iron prospects and advancing several gold targets in the Pilbara.

Talisman Mining’s Sheepyard prospect has emerged as the company’s clearest exploration opportunity after drilling outlined shallow gold mineralisation across an unconstrained 800-metre strike. But the annual report also shows a shrinking royalty income stream, a $2.705 million loss and fresh reliance on equity funding.

Kingsrose Mining is entering FY27 with A$18.1 million in cash, a fresh CEO and a portfolio that now depends more heavily on permitting, partnerships and capital discipline. The company’s nearest-term opportunity is Penikat drilling in Finland, while its Norwegian projects require new routes to funding or value realisation.

Victory Metals has set out a 20-year development case for North Stanmore, backed by a 47 million tonne Probable Ore Reserve and a pre-tax NPV8 of A$1.76 billion. The project remains pre-feasibility stage, while the company ended FY2026 with A$11.18 million in cash and no operating revenue.

Power Minerals has repositioned around two Brazilian critical minerals projects, led by Morro do Ferro’s thick, high-grade rare earth intersections and a conceptual 10.7Mt Exploration Target. The shift comes with stronger funding and no borrowings, but the audited accounts warn that further financing remains essential.

Miramar Resources has outlined a maiden 39,764-ounce Inferred gold resource at its Gidji joint venture, but its annual report also flags material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. A September placement has improved liquidity, though further funding and drilling remain central to the story.

Torque Metals enters FY2027 with a 351,000-ounce Ritz Gold Project resource, $13.6 million in cash and an exceptional post-year-end HHH intercept. But the annual report also carries an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over going concern, with further funding potentially required to sustain exploration.

Aruma Resources’ 2026 annual report puts the Tillex Copper-Silver Project at the centre of its strategy after wide, high-grade drilling results in Ontario. But the explorer also reported a $2.71 million loss, $788,658 in cash and a material going-concern uncertainty dependent on further capital.
