Zeotech Limited (ASX:ZEO) is moving Toondoon toward its first direct-shipping kaolin export after securing a potential A$200 million offtake agreement, while AusPozz™ and zeoteCH₄® produce encouraging trial results. The progress came alongside an A$8.15 million FY26 loss, negative operating cash flow and an acknowledgement that further funding may be required.

EcoGraf has begun a European Investment Bank-funded study program worth up to €2 million to test expansion options for its Epanko graphite project and planned battery anode operations. The work could strengthen future financing and development decisions, but it remains a planning exercise rather than a construction commitment.

Tolu Minerals has more than doubled its reported gold resources to 1.33 million ounces after declaring a maiden 293,000-ounce resource at Mt Penck in Papua New Guinea. The project also carries a largely untested copper-gold porphyry target, but its proposed A$30 million exploration program still requires separate funding.

Anson Resources has signed a non-binding MoU covering a potential five-year lithium carbonate offtake with Wogen and possible project financing support from Xcelsior. The proposed supply could reach 6,000 tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent a year, but deliveries remain dependent on Green River being financed, permitted and built.

South Port New Zealand delivered record FY26 earnings and cargo volumes, lifting its annual dividend to 29.0 cents per share. The next test is whether its core Southland trade can hold up as one-off wind farm cargo disappears and the port enters a leadership transition.

Ionic Rare Earths is pushing toward commercial magnet recycling in Belfast and the United States, but its FY2026 report flags a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company reported a larger A$14.9 million loss and A$13.9 million in operating cash outflows, despite government support and new strategic partnerships.

CZR Resources has expanded its exploration case at Croydon, with shallow gold at Frank’s Patch and Baskerville complemented by deeper mineralisation at Top Camp. The company has also lodged a mining lease application for its Buddadoo vanadium-titanium-magnetite project.

Eneco Refresh has delivered its strongest profit in five years despite raw material inflation and logistics disruption, with operating cash flow and cash reserves also improving. The company now has scope to invest in automation and consider selective acquisitions, but offers no FY2027 earnings guidance or dividend.

Global Lithium’s Manna-Nova integration study nearly doubles the project’s post-tax NPV to A$945.7 million while cutting funded pre-production capital by 59%. The plan targets first direct shipping ore in May 2027 and spodumene concentrate production by mid-2027, but still depends on funding, approvals and a final investment decision.

Avenira has agreed to supply Hebang with 500,000 wet metric tonnes of Wonarah phosphate rock annually for four years, covering more than 80% of expected DSO production. The commercial opportunity is substantial, but pricing, approvals and project arrangements remain unresolved.

Latrobe Magnesium is shifting its growth priority to a proposed 50 ktpa magnesium plant in South Carolina, backed by 32 ktpa of non-binding customer interest and a 20-year feedstock agreement. The project carries substantial indicative economics, but still needs funding, site acquisition, feasibility work, permits and binding offtake contracts.

New Hope delivered more coal, expanded its resource base and declared a 30-cent final dividend, but lower realised prices and higher costs cut FY26 profit by 63.4%. The results leave investors weighing near-term earnings pressure against a larger production pipeline.
