Great Western Exploration has identified zinc-silver-lead mineralisation at its Seymour target in Western Australia, which it interprets as the outer edge of a potentially fertile volcanic-hosted massive sulphide system. The company says a nearby copper-gold core remains untested and is accelerating permitting, geophysics and follow-up drilling.

Black Cat Syndicate’s gold inventory has fallen to 2.31Moz of Resources and 272koz of Reserves after mining depletion and model revisions. The producer is responding with up to $35 million of FY27 exploration spending while targeting 80-90koz of output.

eMetals has shifted its exploration focus from Uganda to a larger Utah tungsten project, where high-grade re-assays have set up a 17-hole drilling campaign. But the ASX-listed explorer ended the year with $1.79 million in cash, $1.40 million of deferred consideration and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

Riedel Resources has completed the equity-funded acquisition of the Cosmo and Mt Venn gold projects, expanding its exploration portfolio beyond Arizona. But the annual report carries a material going-concern uncertainty, leaving future drilling dependent on further capital and execution.

Mithril Silver and Gold has lifted the higher-confidence portion of its Copalquin Target 1 resource to 464,000 ounces of gold equivalent, giving the Mexican project a stronger base for mine planning. The upgrade comes alongside a larger loss, substantial exploration spending and an auditor’s warning that further funding is needed to support the company’s going-concern status.

Manhattan Gold Corporation (ASX:MHC) has emerged from a transformational year with encouraging Hook Lake drilling, expanded tenure and a sharper gold focus, but no compliant resource yet and only A$2.01 million in year-end cash. The company reported an A$8.90 million loss after absorbing exploration costs and a large loss on its lithium divestment.

Lincoln Minerals has moved Minbrie’s Eagle Ridge prospect towards diamond drilling after air core work supported its geological model. But the ASX-listed explorer remains loss-making, cash-burning and dependent on further funding to continue its exploration program.

Perpetual Resources has warned of material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern after its FY2026 loss more than tripled. The ASX-listed explorer finished the year with A$2.34 million in cash, but remains dependent on further capital raisings to fund Nevada Scheelite and Brazilian exploration.

Nico Resources is advancing drilling, metallurgical studies and a potential downstream battery-materials partnership at Wingellina, despite a subdued nickel market and a larger annual loss. The company ended FY2026 with $4.73 million across cash and short-term investments after raising $3.73 million in equity.

Kingsrose Mining is entering FY27 with A$18.1 million in cash, a fresh CEO and a portfolio that now depends more heavily on permitting, partnerships and capital discipline. The company’s nearest-term opportunity is Penikat drilling in Finland, while its Norwegian projects require new routes to funding or value realisation.

PC Gold has reported broad, higher-than-modelled gold intersections at Spring Hill, including a 29.65-metre zone grading 4.32 g/t gold. Several assays remain outstanding, but the results extend Link Zone mineralisation about 30 metres beyond the current model ahead of a planned December 2026 resource update.

Renascor Resources has identified multiple high-priority conductive targets at its Flat Hill project in South Australia, including features near historical copper intersections and previously untested areas. Drilling is being planned at depths of about 150 to 300 metres, but access and Native Title arrangements remain outstanding.
