G11 Resources has expanded its exploration footprint and reported a conceptual copper Exploration Target at Wilandra, while drilling near Tasmania’s Mt Lyell system continues. The company ended the year with $4.91 million in cash but remains loss-making and reliant on future funding to sustain exploration.

Southern Hemisphere Mining has reported its strongest Llahuin drilling results yet, but the copper explorer ended FY26 with just $110,027 in cash and a material going-concern uncertainty. The company is relying on further funding, related-party borrowings, asset sales and a possible Chilean VAT refund to keep exploration moving.

West Coast Silver has secured a prospecting licence immediately west of its Elizabeth Hill mining lease, opening a new near-mine exploration target with historical silver, copper, nickel and palladium anomalism. The company plans to validate the old data before deciding whether to drill.

DeSoto Resources has assembled about 1,300 square kilometres of gold tenure in Guinea’s Siguiri Basin, but the expansion came with a A$15.0 million FY2026 loss and a A$6.35 million write-off of Northern Territory exploration assets. The company enters FY2027 with drilling, geophysics and tenure renewals still to convert its large portfolio into a defined resource.

Power Minerals has outlined a maiden conceptual Exploration Target of 9.2 million to 10.7 million tonnes at Morro do Ferro in Brazil, grading 7.8% to 9.2% TREO. The result gives the ongoing drilling program a clearer target, but 43% of the upper estimate comes from an untested projected extension and nine recent holes remain unassayed.

Apollo Minerals has completed a 180-line-kilometre airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over its Couflens tungsten-gold project in France, with the work conducted alongside the French Geological Survey. The data is still being processed, but it could help shape the next phase of exploration, including planned underground drilling at the Véronique zone.

Legacy Minerals has identified three untested induced polarisation targets at its Rockley project in NSW, led by an 800m zone with chargeability of up to 45mV/V. The priority target sits beneath surface copper, gold and silver anomalies, but drilling remains under consideration rather than committed.

Adavale Resources has lifted its Parkes Project gold inventory to 383,300 ounces, led by a 228% increase at London-Victoria after an 85-hole drilling campaign. The company is now moving from resource definition towards metallurgical testing and a Scoping Study, although no production decision or project economics has been disclosed.

M3 Mining reduced its FY2026 loss and more than doubled cash after a $2.25 million placement, while exploration work at Edjudina produced priority gold targets. The improvement comes with an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

West Coast Silver has added a 70%-owned prospect immediately west of its Elizabeth Hill silver mine, with historical results pointing to silver, copper, nickel and palladium potential. The targets remain early-stage: the company plans data review, fieldwork and geophysics before deciding whether to drill.

Infinity Metals has reported a sharply smaller FY2026 loss as it shifts its exploration focus towards the United States and Australia. The pivot follows rejection of its San José mining licence application, a A$2.25 million placement and a growing portfolio of early-stage copper, molybdenum and tin targets.

Agrimin has completed its withdrawal from the Mackay Potash Project and repositioned itself around exploration at the 480-square-kilometre Mount Squires Project. The pivot reduced the company’s annual loss, but left it with $1.08 million in cash, net current liabilities and no JORC mineral resources or ore reserves.
