Explorers led the Materials tape as fresh drill stories and new ground deals pulled buyers into small caps. Big miners still delivered, but the loudest moves came from companies offering investors a near-term catalyst.

Lithium Energy Limited is set to begin a 2,700-metre drilling campaign at its Sandy Creek Gold-Copper Prospect following rock chip samples revealing significant copper, gold, and silver grades. This marks a key step in exploring the Capricorn Gold-Copper Belt Project near the historic Mt Morgan mine.

Felix Gold Limited has confirmed significant extensions to gold mineralisation at its NW Array prospect in Alaska's Treasure Creek, with high-grade assay results and broad gold halos around antimony veins. The mineralised system remains open for further expansion, supporting the company's dual-commodity strategy.

Austral Resources is set to begin an 18-hole drilling campaign at its Rocklands project to enhance confidence in its copper-gold resource and optimise processing. Results expected through Q3 2026 will inform next steps in resource development and plant efficiency.

Tivan Limited has completed its acquisition of the Baucau and Ossu mineral projects in Timor-Leste and signed a non-binding agreement to form a joint venture with the state-owned Murak Rai. The move positions Tivan at the forefront of mineral exploration in a highly prospective but underexplored region.

Horizon Minerals Limited has announced a significant update to its gold mineral resource, increasing contained ounces to 1.88 million by lowering cutoff grades and accounting for mining depletion. This comprehensive update spans multiple key deposits and sets the stage for upcoming development studies.

North Stawell Minerals’ latest surface geochemistry results at Caledonia reveal a coherent gold anomaly aligned with the Darlington-Caledonia trend, boosting confidence in high-grade mineralisation potential beneath shallow cover.

Auravelle Metals has completed a key heritage survey at its Crown Gold Project in Western Australia, setting the stage for targeted soil sampling and follow-up aircore drilling to refine gold exploration targets.

Kalgoorlie Gold Mining’s recent diamond drilling at Kirgella Gift and Providence deposits reveals thick gold mineralisation extending well below previous resource estimates, signalling promising vertical growth potential.

Accelerate Resources has revealed a new northwest-trending gold structure at its Balagundi Project, expanding the known mineralised footprint with encouraging aircore drilling results. Follow-up drilling is set to test the extent and continuity of this discovery.

SQX Resources has more than doubled its ground position at the Williams Gold-Silver Project in Montana, securing extensive strike extensions of historically high-grade veins. This expansion sets the stage for a major exploration push in 2026.
