Latest Financing News

OD6 Metals has secured A$6.92 million from institutional and sophisticated investors to advance drilling, bulk sampling and resource definition at its Quinn Fluorspar Project in Nevada. The funding also sets up a proposed rebrand to Adaven, but brings dilution and a substantial package of shareholder approvals.

Austral Resources’ proposed acquisition of Hammer Metals has cleared its first Federal Court hurdle, with ASIC registration of the Scheme Booklet and a shareholder vote now set for 9 November. The transaction still needs shareholder approval, a second Court hearing and other conditions before implementation.

PDI Gold has paired a strong September quarter with high-grade drilling beneath its Kiniéro pits, strengthening the case for further resource growth at Guinea’s producing gold operation. The results remain exploration-stage, but the company is preparing a 140,000-metre campaign for 2027.

Osmond Resources has secured the maximum €250,000 provisional grant in the first round of Spain’s national mineral exploration program, while preparing to start a 13-hole campaign at its Orión project. The company has also issued 85 million shares to retain its 80% interest in the project-owning vehicle.

Finder Energy has extended the Kuda Tasi and Jahal project’s Final Investment Decision deadline to 30 November, after widening its international EPCI tender process. The company says debt financing is nearing its final stages, but the delay adds another checkpoint before its late-2027 drilling target.

Buru Energy has formally referred its 100%-owned Rafael Conventional Gas Project to Western Australia’s environmental regulator, with a decision on whether the project requires assessment expected by late 2026. The referral keeps the company’s targets of a final investment decision in the second half of 2027 and first gas in early 2029 in view, subject to approvals.

Rox Resources has reached financial close on A$350 million of debt facilities for the Youanmi Gold Mine, removing the conditions that had stood between the funding package and construction spending. The company has initially drawn A$90.2 million in project debt and used a further A$4 million bank guarantee facility allocation.

Hammer Metals’ proposed acquisition by Austral Resources has cleared its first court stage, with ASIC registering the scheme booklet and an independent expert backing the scrip deal. Shareholders now face linked votes on the takeover and the demerger of Western Australian gold assets into an unlisted company.

Heavy Minerals reported a sharply wider FY2026 loss and a $3.15 million net working capital deficit, with its auditor flagging material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The balance sheet pressure sits alongside stronger project milestones, including a post-year-end Port Gregory study and the push to fund Kanmantoo.

EcoGraf has replaced its earlier Epanko announcement after ASX correspondence, setting out the assumptions behind a potential increase in Stage 1 production to 87,600 tonnes per annum. The higher-throughput case lowers estimated unit costs, but remains preliminary and is not yet the basis for project financing or a final investment decision.

Alkane Resources has reported a transformational FY2026, with the Mandalay merger helping lift revenue to A$935.8 million and profit after tax to A$228.7 million. The enlarged gold and antimony producer has also declared its first dividend and approved a buy-back, while setting broadly stable production guidance for FY2027.

6K Additive has completed a six-year, US$27.4 million secured loan with the US Export-Import Bank to expand production of critical metal powders in Pennsylvania. The financing gives the company access to project funding through June 2028, but the final interest rate and the expansion’s eventual output remain to be established.
