Kaiser Reef produced 6,263 ounces of gold in the September quarter while lifting cash and bullion to A$40 million and fully repaying its Auramet gold loan after quarter end. Henty replaced mined reserves, while Maldon’s exploration program moved underground despite a negative operating cash contribution.

Raptor Metals has returned broad copper-rich and polymetallic assays from archived Chester core, including up to 32 metres at 1.38% copper. The results will feed an updated resource estimate, but they remain downhole results from within the existing resource footprint rather than a new resource declaration.

Viking Mines has confirmed significant tungsten mineralisation in all five assayed Linka Main holes, while advancing ore sorting, bulk sampling and processing plans in Nevada. The progress comes with no JORC resource yet defined and approximately 1.8 quarters of funding at current cash outflows.

Lindian Resources says its Kangankunde rare earths project remains on track for first monazite concentrate production in December, with equipment testing and export preparations now underway. The company also reported $45 million in cash, full ownership of its Kazakhstan processing plant and a newly disclosed appeal of a previously dismissed Malawi court case.

Zeotech has begun an approximately 800-tonne commercial-scale AusPozz production trial while reporting independently replicated mining test results and a 92% average methane reduction in treated landfill cells. The September quarter also brought a non-binding VINCI Construction MOU, further Toondoon resource work and A$6.609 million in cash.

Anax Metals has moved its Whim Creek copper-zinc project deeper into engineering and financing work, while Mons Cupri’s Mineral Resource rises 24% to 6.32 million tonnes. The company is still targeting a fourth-quarter Final Investment Decision, but funding remains non-binding and the larger resource has yet to enter the project’s Ore Reserve or financial forecasts.

QMines has doubled its Mt Chalmers drilling campaign to 20,000 metres while reporting $10.7 million in cash and a further $1.4 million in contracted receivables. The September quarter also delivered a higher Mount Mackenzie resource, fresh Botos drilling and a pipeline of assays that could shape the next resource update.

Red Metal’s latest column tests have extended the heap-leach case to the largest ore type at its Sybella rare earth project, with 65% neodymium and 68% praseodymium extraction from fresh granite. The result brings 598 million tonnes of fresh granite into the company’s pre-feasibility study, although the ore requires a longer leach cycle than its weathered counterparts.

Marmota has extended the high-grade Greenewood gold system north and to depth, with mineralisation now traced across more than 2km of strike. The latest assays include 8 metres at 11.5 grams per tonne gold, although the results are still based mainly on initial 4-metre composites and do not yet establish a mineral resource.

NH3 Clean Energy has expanded the potential market for its WAH2 clean ammonia project and completed key environmental surveys, but now expects to make its final investment decision in 2027 rather than 2026. The company ended September with A$4.404 million in cash after raising A$4 million from predominantly institutional investors.

Ballard Mining has expanded its Mt Ida gold resource by 658,000 ounces to 1.84 million ounces and strengthened its funding position with a post-quarter-end equity raise of up to A$50 million. The pre-production developer is now moving from resource growth towards a feasibility study and maiden Ore Reserve targeted for mid-2027.

Vanadium Resources has begun a preparation phase aimed at securing development finance and shortening the route to a definitive feasibility study and final investment decision for its proposed South African V-Iron plant. The plan is constructive, but funding remains unapproved and the project still faces significant technical, permitting, offtake and equity hurdles.
