Latest Institutional Placements News

Australian Vanadium reported progress across its mine, electrolyte and battery businesses, but auditors highlighted material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The group held $17.9 million in cash at 30 June, yet expects to need additional funding within 12 months.

Meeka Metals has secured $40 million after costs through a two-tranche institutional placement priced at $0.10 a share, giving the gold producer fresh funding for Turnberry, Mt Holland and exploration. The capital raise comes as provisional September-quarter gold recovery reached 7,000 to 7,500 ounces and the company expects roughly $50 million in cash after the first tranche.

Latrobe Magnesium has moved its demonstration plant into the final installation stage for magnesium metal, but its annual report flags a material uncertainty over whether the loss-making group can continue as a going concern. The company had $1.09 million in cash at 30 June and has since secured an $8.5 million equity raising to fund commissioning and corporate costs.

LinQ Minerals finished its first full year as an ASX-listed explorer with $16.23 million in cash after spending heavily on Gilmore drilling and raising $15.4 million. The company reported encouraging gold and copper results, but its next phase will test whether exploration success can translate into a larger resource and a credible development pathway.

Adisyn has moved closer to commercialising its graphene platform after independently verified sub-300°C deposition, a US patent allowance and a new defence technology arm. The progress came alongside a A$7.83 million statutory loss, A$4.47 million in operating cash outflows and a heavily judgement-based A$42.1 million technology asset.

Murray Cod Australia posted a $5.37 million FY2026 loss after the prior year’s $8.56 million profit, despite higher fish biomass and improved fourth-quarter performance. The company ended the year with $4.14 million in cash after raising capital, while operating cash outflow reached $26.57 million and a Westpac interest-cover covenant was breached and waived.

Unico Silver has secured approximately A$60 million from institutional and sophisticated investors, taking pro forma cash to about A$110 million. The capital will fund 20,000 metres of drilling, a maiden PFS due in January 2027 and continued advancement of a DFS through 2027.

Bannerman Energy has moved its Etango uranium project materially closer to construction after completing a A$124 million placement and clearing conditions for its CNOL strategic investment. The project is advancing on site, but full-scale construction still depends on Final Investment Decision and completion of the joint venture documentation.

Aurum Resources has secured A$52.5 million from institutional investors to begin long-lead procurement and other early works at its Boundiali gold project before the definitive feasibility study is complete. The raise strengthens the balance sheet, but also adds 95.45 million shares ahead of two major technical milestones.

PC Gold’s Spring Hill project emerged from FY2026 with a sharply larger resource, fresh institutional funding and a clearer path towards feasibility studies. The gold explorer remains pre-production and loss-making, but its post-year-end A$75 million raise gives it substantial room to expand drilling and development work.

Latrobe Magnesium has secured A$8.5 million in equity funding to complete its Latrobe Valley demonstration plant and advance a proposed South Carolina magnesium project. The raising gives the company near-term funding certainty, but also brings further dilution and leaves the larger US development dependent on future capital.

Wildcat Resources has secured firm commitments for a A$60 million institutional placement to push Tabba Tabba into engineering, site establishment and construction readiness ahead of a definitive feasibility study targeted for later in 2026. The raise strengthens funding, but part of the share issue still requires shareholder approval and the financing does not establish a final investment decision.
