Latest Jorc Mineral Resources News

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.

Podium Minerals says optimisation work has maintained approximately 80% overall 3E recovery while cutting the targeted size of its downstream recovery circuit by about half. The technical gains came alongside a larger annual loss and an explicit reliance on further funding to advance Parks Reef.

Atomic Eagle has formally executed the Mining Convention for its Madaouela uranium project in Niger, securing the legal, fiscal and operational framework for the asset. The agreement also triggers steps to end historical arbitration proceedings, while a US$5 million payment and a targeted JORC resource update now sit ahead of the company.

White Cliff Minerals has expanded the assay-confirmed footprint of its Rae Copper Project beyond 11.5km, while new Danvers 3 drilling has placed visible copper sulphides within 19 metres of surface. The most eye-catching Danvers 3 interval still awaits laboratory assays.

Altoro Metals says underground drilling has expanded the apparent width of the Emilia zinc mineralised system beyond 100 metres, although assays from nine holes are still pending. The company is combining four historical workings into one Novales Project as it prepares further drilling, a resource upgrade and mine restart documents.

Forrestania Resources has increased the British Hill JORC Mineral Resource Estimate by 21% to 212,400 ounces of gold, with higher-confidence Indicated ounces rising 37%. Drilling is continuing, but the project remains at the resource and study stage rather than production.

Connected Minerals has made Angola’s Bailundo niobium and rare earths project its flagship after writing off A$3.40 million in Namibian and Western Australian exploration assets. The pivot is now backed by a completed A$4.5 million placement and a planned 6,000-metre drilling campaign, but Bailundo remains an exploration-stage project without a declared resource.

Power Minerals has outlined a maiden conceptual Exploration Target of 9.2 million to 10.7 million tonnes at Morro do Ferro in Brazil, grading 7.8% to 9.2% TREO. The result gives the ongoing drilling program a clearer target, but 43% of the upper estimate comes from an untested projected extension and nine recent holes remain unassayed.

Emerald Resources-backed Manda Resources has completed a suite of North Queensland asset acquisitions, lifting its combined global JORC gold resource to 1.33Moz. The vehicle has started drilling and appointed experienced explorer Tara French as CEO ahead of a proposed ASX listing later in 2026.

Advance Metals has recorded its strongest silver assay yet at the Gavilanes Project in Mexico, with drilling also returning the project’s highest-grade zinc-lead interval. The mineralised system remains open at depth and to the southwest, while metallurgical work and further drilling target a maiden JORC resource in the December quarter of 2026.

OzAurum Resources has shifted Mulgabbie North from feasibility work into early construction, backed by encouraging laboratory heap leach results and a $4.10 million placement. But the company remains loss-making, cash-burning and dependent on further funding, with its auditor flagging a material uncertainty over going concern.

Agrimin has completed its withdrawal from the Mackay Potash Project and repositioned itself around exploration at the 480-square-kilometre Mount Squires Project. The pivot reduced the company’s annual loss, but left it with $1.08 million in cash, net current liabilities and no JORC mineral resources or ore reserves.
