Felix Gold advanced bulk extraction, processing and refinery plans at its Alaska antimony project in FY26, but the push came with a larger loss, falling cash and an auditor-documented material uncertainty over going concern. A potential US$18 million Department of Energy award remains subject to negotiation rather than a committed funding source.

PDI Gold’s first full annual report after its Robex merger shows a transformed West African gold business with US$193.7 million in cash and two producing mines. The statutory result remains a US$63.7 million loss, while Bankan’s next phase still depends on an exploitation permit from Guinea.

Yugo Metals finished 2026 with A$6.29 million in cash after raising A$8.6 million, giving its Bosnia and Herzegovina exploration program more financial room. The trade-off was a net loss of A$3.93 million, more than double the previous year, alongside substantial equity issuance and ongoing funding risk.

Resolution Minerals has turned Horse Heaven into the centre of its strategy, pairing broad gold drilling with high-grade antimony and tungsten test work. The expansion came with a sharply higher A$53.3 million FY2026 loss and a disclosed dependence on future funding.

Li-S Energy’s lithium-sulfur battery powered the Pegasus drone through an almost two-hour Queensland flight covering more than 75 kilometres. The result strengthens the technology’s aviation credentials, but the partners are still assessing commercialisation rather than announcing sales.

Tarrina Resources has identified five kilometre-scale IOCG target zones at Walparuta after soil sampling returned copper values up to 2,891 ppm and gold up to 466 ppb. The planned 23-hole drill campaign remains subject to native title, heritage, land access and government approvals.

Australia United Mining has reported a $596,624 loss, $20,802 in cash and a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

Chalice Mining is moving Gonneville from study to execution, with a feasibility study underway and a targeted investment decision in the first half of 2028. The project’s sizeable economics sit alongside a A$26.2 million annual loss and a funding task that remains unresolved.

Group One Capital delivered a sharp revenue increase and remained profitable in FY2026 as structured finance emerged as a material new income stream. The opportunity is significant, but future fee receipts remain tied to project settlements, refinancing and contractual conditions.

Altamin has completed the core technical work for its Lazio geothermal brine Scoping Study, but auditors have flagged material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ASX-listed developer ended FY2026 with A$2.39 million in cash after raising A$5.39 million during the year.

Green Technology Metals has cleared the environmental assessment for its Seymour lithium project, while a A$15.9 million capital raising leaves the company better placed to complete its definitive feasibility study. The next test is whether permitting, financing and Indigenous agreements can convert that progress into a Final Investment Decision in FY27.

Hot Chili’s La Verde copper-gold discovery has expanded rapidly enough to become a cornerstone of the Costa Fuego project, while new funding gives the company room to pursue the next studies and permits. The key test now is whether drilling can translate into a maiden resource and a credible development case.
