Latest Joint Ventures News

MetalsGrove Mining has expanded its Côte d’Ivoire gold footprint and begun a 10,000-metre auger campaign, but its FY2026 annual report carries a material going-concern uncertainty. The company ended the year with $1.97 million in cash after raising $2.70 million, while exploration commitments due within 12 months total $1.09 million.

Bannerman Energy has completed CNOL’s US$320.4 million strategic investment in the Etango uranium project, giving the joint venture approximately US$303 million in cash and a debt-free construction pathway. The project now moves towards a Final Investment Decision and full-scale construction targeted for Q4 2026.

Rand Mining lifted fiscal 2026 net profit by 82% to A$23.9 million as gold sales rose and Golden Hind delivered its first ore. The result was also helped by a A$8.7 million Raleigh impairment reversal, while higher costs, inventory and development spending reduced cash generation.

Australian Silica Quartz Group is shifting its centre of gravity from exploration to development after adding the 47.3Mt White Swan Kaolin Project. The project has an approved 250,000-tonne-per-year mining concept, but commercial offtake and feasibility work remain ahead.

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.

Flynn Gold is pushing Golden Ridge and Firetower towards resource definition, but its FY2026 annual report flags a material going-concern uncertainty and a cash balance of just A$1.11 million. A partially underwritten A$3 million rights issue now sits alongside drilling, permitting and a non-binding processing pathway with Henty Gold Mine.

CZR Resources has converted the A$75 million Robe Mesa sale into a debt-free exploration war chest, while Croydon drilling expands its flagship gold target. The next test is whether exploration momentum and the proposed Zuleika takeover can create value beyond the one-off transaction gain.

The Australian Wealth Advisors Group Ltd (ASX:WAG) has replaced its unaudited FY2026 result with audited accounts showing $1.21 million in profit before tax and $889,469 after tax. The result comes as AWAG exits CHPW, expands its advisory investments and lifts its authorised representative target to about 150 by December.

Narryer Metals has advanced its Australian critical-minerals portfolio and agreed to acquire the Redhill Copper Project, but its FY2026 accounts flag a material uncertainty over continued funding. The company ended the year with A$1.36 million in cash after a A$1.32 million loss attributable to shareholders.

Leeuwin Metals ended FY2026 with a 342,300-ounce Marda resource, which increased to 378,600 ounces shortly after year end following further Evanston drilling. The gold explorer is now shifting towards permitting and mine planning, although it remains loss-making, has no Ore Reserves and expects to require further funding.

Lefroy Exploration has moved from explorer to gold producer after Lucky Strike delivered its first gold, while Mt Martin and Burns advanced towards potential development. The milestone comes alongside a $2.136 million loss and an auditor warning that uncertain profit distributions may require further funding.

Critica Limited (ASX:CRI) has delivered stronger technical results across its Jupiter rare earths and Mt Lindsay tin-tungsten projects, but the developer remains dependent on further funding. Two scoping studies targeted for Q3 2026 now carry the burden of translating resource potential and laboratory results into project economics.
