Latest Leasing News

PC Gold will acquire the last third-party mining leases inside its Spring Hill development area, adding a water licence and operating rights for A$6.5 million. The deal could simplify mine planning and approvals, but still requires Northern Territory ministerial approval and does not add a reported resource.

The proposed transaction remains subject to due diligence, final documentation and Arena’s consent to lease assignments.

Auric Mining has completed settlement on the Union Jack gold project near Coolgardie for A$6.5 million in cash, with a further A$3.0 million in shares subject to shareholder approval. The 102,000-ounce Inferred resource will be tested by a major drilling campaign from November as Auric builds feed options for its planned Burbanks restart.

Corazon Mining has exercised its option to secure an 80% interest in the 154-square-kilometre Feather Cap Gold Project after drilling confirmed shallow, high-grade mineralisation at Wembley. The company now faces the more difficult task of proving scale, continuity and economic significance through follow-up drilling.

LGI Limited (ASX:LGI) is buying two operating Queensland solar farms for $22 million, adding 42MW of export capacity at a price below the company’s stated greenfield replacement cost. The transaction lifts LGI’s targeted medium-term renewable and dispatchable capacity pipeline beyond 120MW, although the projected earnings contribution depends on electricity prices, synergies and software integration.

Antares Metals has agreed to earn a 90% interest in the historic Enterprise gold mine in Western Australia, adding a fourth priority target to its Quinns project. The company has expanded its air core program to 2,500 metres, but the transaction remains subject to expenditure, approvals and historical-data caveats.

The expansion requires about $1.28 million of LPE-funded investment, but revenue will build only as homes, connections and retail tenancies come online.

The project remains conditional on regulatory sign-offs, but MEGA Resources is set to fund development under an extended cooperation agreement.

Ampol will acquire Evie Networks for $225 million in a debt-funded deal that would more than triple its public charging footprint to approximately 1,425 bays.

Helios Energy has posted a A$23.1 million FY2026 loss after writing off A$21.35 million in exploration assets. Its Presidio project retains a 17.5 million-barrel-of-oil-equivalent 2C contingent resource estimate, but the company warns that continued operations depend on further funding.
