Taruga Minerals has transformed its exploration strategy around two Papua New Guinea projects, but the next phase comes with a clear funding constraint.

Adavale Resources is presenting its 610-square-kilometre Parkes Gold Project as a belt-scale opportunity with 383,300 ounces of reported gold resources and existing processing infrastructure.

Recharge Metals ended FY2026 with $5.61 million in cash after a $5.97 million capital raise and the acquisition of the Sunset Well gold project.

Zenith Minerals more than doubled its flagship Dulcie gold resource to 675,000 ounces in FY26, but the company’s next chapter is now tied to Forrestania Resources’ conditional takeover offer.

Rumble Resources has moved Western Queen closer to a potential 2027 gold start, pairing a larger resource with third-party processing access and A$10 million in royalty funding.

Javelin Minerals is pursuing an all-scrip takeover by FirstAU after its planned Eureka production partnership with MEGA Resources was terminated over regional processing constraints.

Forrestania Resources has lifted the higher-confidence portion of its Lady Ada and Lady Magdalene gold resource by 43%, even as total contained ounces fall 4% to 285,700 ounces.
