Right Resources has begun a fully funded 2,000-metre aircore program at its Blue Prospect near Tumbarumba, testing six tungsten and five gold anomalies for the first time below surface. Assay results are expected progressively during the December Quarter, but the campaign is exploratory and is not designed to define a Mineral Resource.

Sultan Resources has applied for a 171.2km² copper-gold exploration licence in Namibia’s Central Damara Orogen, a region with established gold deposits and growing copper interest. The opportunity would add a sizeable new landholding without issuing consideration shares, although the licence remains subject to grant and has produced no company exploration results yet.

Daly Resources says a 10.7-kilometre soil traverse has revealed fluorine anomalies beyond known Huckitta fluorite outcrops, including beneath transported cover. A new western vein and high-grade rock-chip results have widened the exploration target, but drilling is still required to test continuity and scale.

Galileo Mining advanced several PGM, nickel, copper and gold targets at Norseman during FY2026, but a A$4.55 million exploration impairment pushed its annual loss to A$4.67 million. The company ended the year with A$7.48 million in cash and a growing drilling pipeline for Mission Sill and Callisto South.

Sky Metals has used FY2026 to move Tallebung from exploration toward development, combining more than 500 drill holes with strong ore-sorting results and progress into NSW’s environmental approval process. The advance came alongside a A$5.37 million loss and continuing reliance on equity funding.

Taruga Minerals has identified a new northeast-trending gold-copper zone at Uaroo Ridge in Western Australia, led by a rock chip grading 1.4g/t gold and 4.3% copper. The result expands the prospect’s exploration footprint, but remains an early-stage surface sampling result with no drilling or resource estimate.

Ordell Minerals has reported broad shallow gold intersections from the first 11 holes of a 122-hole infill program at McNabs East in Western Australia. The results strengthen the case for a maiden resource in the December 2026 quarter, although most assays and the key resource work remain outstanding.

Dalaroo Metals has identified coincident geophysical and geochemical features at its Watheroo Cu-Ni-PGE prospect, including a modelled chargeability response of approximately 18 mV/V. The results support plans for deep RC drilling, but the anomalies remain unproven and could have non-mineralisation sources.

Great Northern Minerals has identified at least three undrilled chargeability anomalies at its Douglas Creek project in North Queensland, supported by gold, copper, silver and bismuth surface results. The targets sit around a large reverse-polarised magnetic tonalite body that extends to an interpreted depth of about 1 kilometre, but drilling is not expected until mid-2027.

A new magnetotelluric survey has identified a large conductive anomaly beneath Strickland Metals’ Obradov Prospect in Serbia, adding another high-priority target to its 9.25Moz AuEq Rogozna project. The anomaly is supported by overlapping gravity, IP, geochemical and drilling evidence, but still requires drilling to establish whether it contains an economic mineralised system.

Kalamazoo Resources has expanded its wholly owned Mt Piper exploration footprint in Central Victoria to 1,574 square kilometres, securing continuous coverage over a 15km structural corridor. Early drilling has confirmed gold-antimony anomalism at Whiteheads Hill, but the results remain reconnaissance-stage and sub-economic.

FMR Resources has shifted decisively towards Chile, expanding its copper-gold portfolio while early Llahuin drilling suggests the interpreted porphyry core remains untested. The exploration push came with a $6.44 million loss, $4.65 million in cash and a renewed dependence on future capital.
