Latest Feasibility Study News

Jindalee Lithium has advanced its proposed US Elemental Nasdaq listing and prepared to launch major drilling at McDermitt, but its audited FY26 accounts flag a material uncertainty over ongoing funding. The company ended June with A$13.6 million in cash after raising about A$20.4 million, while reporting a A$7.2 million loss and no operating revenue.

Mamba Exploration cut its FY2026 loss sharply and ended the year with A$1.19 million in cash after acquiring 70% of the Meeka East Gold Project. But the annual report says additional debt or equity funding is required to sustain exploration, creating a clear financial test for the new Western Australian strategy.

Chalice Mining is moving Gonneville from study to execution, with a feasibility study underway and a targeted investment decision in the first half of 2028. The project’s sizeable economics sit alongside a A$26.2 million annual loss and a funding task that remains unresolved.

Canterbury Resources enters FY2027 with just $220,503 in cash, net current liabilities and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The explorer is targeting at least $2 million in additional funding while advancing the Monto and Briggs copper projects.

PhosCo has expanded its Gasaat phosphate project with a 166.6Mt resource and new processing results, but its auditor has flagged material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ASX-listed explorer ended FY2026 with $5.86 million in cash, a $4.48 million consolidated loss and a $2.71 million working capital deficit.

St George Mining’s Araxá project now boasts a 111.2Mt rare earths resource after a major post-year-end upgrade, alongside 630,000 tonnes of contained niobium. The 2026 annual report shows a company moving rapidly towards development, but still without an ore reserve, mine design or production decision.

Green Technology Metals has cleared the environmental assessment for its Seymour lithium project, while a A$15.9 million capital raising leaves the company better placed to complete its definitive feasibility study. The next test is whether permitting, financing and Indigenous agreements can convert that progress into a Final Investment Decision in FY27.

VBX has expanded the Wuudagu Bauxite Project’s resource to 143.2 million tonnes, but its FY26 accounts expose acute funding pressure, with just $301,208 in cash and an auditor warning of material uncertainty over going concern. The definitive feasibility study has been pushed into the first quarter of 2027 while the company relies on fresh equity, related-party funding and prospective strategic partners.

Unico Silver has more than tripled its reported silver-equivalent resource base across Joaquin and Cerro Leon, ending FY26 with A$55.1 million in cash and a maiden Joaquin Pre-Feasibility Study ahead. The next stage will test whether geological scale can become an economically viable project.

Hot Chili’s La Verde copper-gold discovery has expanded rapidly enough to become a cornerstone of the Costa Fuego project, while new funding gives the company room to pursue the next studies and permits. The key test now is whether drilling can translate into a maiden resource and a credible development case.

Juno Minerals has completed the sale of its Mount Mason project for A$6 million plus a 2% production royalty, but the buyer has pushed development into 2027. The company is now concentrating on finding a partner for its large, capital-intensive Mount Ida magnetite project.

Critical Minerals Group has put a substantial economic case around its Lindfield vanadium project, but its FY26 accounts also flag a material uncertainty over funding. The company is targeting a 2027 investment decision while holding less than A$1 million in year-end cash and navigating a leadership change.
