Venari Minerals has kicked off a 12-hole diamond drilling campaign at its Red Mountain Lithium Project in Nevada to elevate a significant portion of its resource from Inferred to Indicated status, setting the stage for a maiden Scoping Study in early 2027.

iTech Minerals has delivered a standout drill intercept of 36m at 5.6 g/t gold and 1.2% antimony at its Sabre Prospect in the Northern Territory, reinforcing the potential scale and grade of the Reynolds Range Project.

Nex Metals has advanced its Kookynie Tailings Project metallurgical testing, lifting gold recovery significantly and uncovering a promising tungsten by-product opportunity.

Strata Minerals is pushing forward multiple technical workstreams at its Zelica Gold Project in Western Australia, backed by BML Ventures. These initiatives aim to de-risk mine planning, processing, and permitting as the project moves closer to development.

White Cliff Minerals has significantly expanded high-grade copper mineralisation at its Danvers 3 target within the Rae Copper Project, with step-out drilling returning 42 metres at 1.43% copper and visual sulphides now confirmed over nearly 10km of strike.

Forrestania Resources has upgraded the British Hill gold deposit resource to 126,290 ounces, more than doubling the previous estimate and significantly increasing the higher-confidence Indicated category. Ongoing drilling and development studies aim to further enhance the project’s value within the Forrestania Hub.

Alma Metals has received assay results from the first three holes of its 2026 infill drilling program at the Briggs Copper Project, confirming copper grades align with the current resource model and underpinning progress toward a preliminary feasibility study.

Southern Cross Gold has updated its Sunday Creek project’s Exploration Target to between 3.0 and 4.6 million ounces gold equivalent, supported by ongoing drilling and promising metallurgical results.

Canterbury Resources has reported consistent assay results from initial drilling at its Briggs Copper Project, supporting a significant resource upgrade and ongoing Pre-Feasibility Study, while gearing up for a new drilling campaign at the Monto Project's John Hill deposit.

GreenX Metals has expanded its Eleonore North Project with two new licences covering about 1,600 km² in East Greenland, targeting intrusion-related gold and critical minerals like tungsten. Historical data shows high gold grades up to 50 g/t, with fieldwork results due this quarter.

Codrus Minerals is set to acquire two promising copper and molybdenum projects in Australia and Peru, backed by a $2.5 million capital raise. The deal includes significant share issuance and performance rights tied to exploration milestones.

Black Bear Minerals’ latest scoping study for its Independence Gold Project in Nevada outlines a low-capital open-pit heap-leach operation with a post-tax NPV of around A$511 million and a rapid 1.4-year payback, based on a portion of the near-surface epithermal resource.
