Latest Feasibility Study News

Minerals 260 has emerged from FY26 with a 6.2Moz Bullabulling resource, a maiden 2.5Moz reserve and a pre-feasibility study pointing to a 19-year gold operation. The project is now moving into definitive feasibility, but debt funding, approvals and a final investment decision remain ahead.

European Lithium reported a A$930.6 million FY2026 profit, but the headline result was dominated by a A$1.276 billion accounting gain after losing control of Critical Metals Corp. The company now heads towards an October vote on a merger that would fold its cash, CRML stake and mineral assets into a single NASDAQ-listed group.

Wildcat Resources has entered FY27 with a $60 million placement, a $37.2 million year-end cash balance and its Tabba Tabba lithium project advancing towards a definitive feasibility study. The funding strengthens the development runway, but final investment approval, financing and approvals remain ahead.

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. The stronger study case comes with higher capital, lower recoveries and no Ore Reserves, leaving metallurgy, permitting and funding as the next tests.

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.

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.

Odyssey Gold has secured a native vegetation clearing permit and a new mining lease at Tuckanarra, while refurbishment work at the planned Kirkalocka processing facility moves ahead. The first toll milling parcel is targeted for June 2027, but a required joint venture agreement remains unresolved.

Independent LONGi testwork has produced 66.3% to 68.0% Fe magnetite concentrates from four Magnetite Range samples using a bench-scale dry flowsheet. The results strengthen the case for a water-efficient route in Accent Resources' pre-feasibility study, but remain preliminary and untested at pilot scale.

Barton Gold has moved deeper into development after raising $40.9 million, completing its largest-ever drilling campaign and ending FY2026 with $31.9 million in cash. The progress came alongside a $22.4 million loss as spending accelerated across Tunkillia, Challenger, Tolmer and Wudinna.

Ark Mines has reported a FY2026 profit after receiving Queensland-backed funding, while its Sandy Mitchell rare earths resource expanded to 379.4 million tonnes after year end. The project now has development approvals and commercial-grade testwork behind it, but no Ore Reserve or mining decision yet.

Atomic Eagle has begun a technical review aimed at determining whether its 60%-owned Madaouela uranium project in Niger can support a materially larger development than outlined in the 2022 feasibility study. The company is targeting a JORC-compliant resource in Q4 2026 and a scoping study in Q1 2027.

Albright Metals has reported a sharply wider FY2026 loss and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company’s Canadian Golden Pike project has advanced to a 54,200-ounce JORC resource, but further development depends on funding.
