Latest Gold Projects News

Aurum Resources has reported its best-ever grade-thickness intercept at the Boundiali Gold Project, led by 28.8 metres at 22.92 g/t gold from the BST1 deposit. The results are intended to support an early fourth-quarter resource update and a definitive feasibility study due late in 2026.

Xpedra Resources has made Springfield the centrepiece of a sharp shift into New South Wales gold exploration, with drilling outlining broad mineralisation across 400 metres of strike and to at least 150 metres down-dip. The results came alongside a $7.53 million annual loss, $3.09 million in cash and a fresh 44 million-share acquisition of the Neeld Gold Project.

Patriot Resources has established a 31.4 million-ounce silver-equivalent inferred resource at its Tassa project in Peru, but the company's annual report warns that further capital raising is required to sustain operations. The explorer recorded a $4.82 million loss and remains dependent on final drilling approvals.

Locksley Resources has halted active field exploration across its Mojave antimony and rare earths project after antimony prices fell more than 57% from mid-2025 peaks. The strategic reset came as the company reported a widened FY26 loss of A$15.65 million and shifted attention to copper-gold assets in New South Wales.

Somerset Minerals reported a $2.17 million statutory profit for 2026, but the result was driven mainly by a gain on divesting its Blackdome-Elizabeth subsidiaries rather than recurring operations. The company’s Coppermine copper campaign delivered strong Jura and Talisker drilling results while its auditor warned that further funding is needed to sustain exploration.

Viking Mines has repositioned itself around Nevada tungsten, with Linka producing a 56.9% WO₃ concentrate at 76.0% recovery and gaining approval for a 63-hole maiden drilling programme. The opportunity is advancing, but the company remains loss-making, has no JORC resource at Linka and will need further funding as work accelerates.

WA Gold has posted a A$2.36 million annual loss and warned that additional working capital is needed to continue as a going concern. The company is nevertheless pressing ahead with Abercromby drilling and a potential 114,000-ounce staged development.

Cooper Metals finished FY2026 with a $611,935 loss and $1.81 million in cash, while its post-year-end Pyramid Gold acquisition reshaped the exploration portfolio. The deal brought AIC Mines in as the company’s largest shareholder, but a larger pool of options and performance rights also raises the importance of future funding and exploration results.

QMines has moved its Mt Chalmers copper-gold project into a Definitive Feasibility Study after securing a $15 million strategic package from QIC. The development push comes alongside a larger annual loss, $9.21 million in operating cash outflow and continued reliance on future funding.

Ragnar Metals has identified at least five interpreted mineralised shoots at its Harnäs gold project in Sweden, but the exploration-led company ended FY2026 with only $233,220 in cash. The annual report also restates FY2025 after previously omitted Kaiser Reef options were recognised at $779,288.

Redstone Resources has expanded its exploration portfolio and reported deep copper intersections at West Musgrave, but its auditor has flagged material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue without further funding. The ASX junior ended FY2026 with A$557,426 in cash against A$636,787 of annual Australian tenement commitments.

Caprice Resources has put its Murchison gold portfolio at the centre of a larger exploration campaign after extending Vadrians mineralisation and raising A$12.8 million. The company remains pre-production and loss-making, with a maiden resource estimate still to come.
