MRG Metals has reported exceptional rare earth grades at its newly acquired Garies project and advanced its Mozambique portfolio, but the explorer remains dependent on capital markets.

Wildcat Resources has entered FY27 with a $60 million placement, a $37.2 million year-end cash balance and its Tabba Tabba lithium project advancing towards a definitive feasibility study. The funding strengthens the development runway, but final investment approval, financing and approvals remain ahead.

Strickland Metals has lifted its Rogozna resource to 9.25 million ounces of gold equivalent, but the exploration company also reported a A$10.39 million FY2026 loss. The cash balance rose sharply after a A$55.11 million placement as the company prepares for studies, permitting and a leadership transition.

Temas Resources has generated its first revenue from its regenerative chloride leaching technology, but the milestone arrives alongside a wider first-half loss, declining cash and an explicit need for further funding by Q4 2026. The company ended June with C$3.39 million in cash and a C$933,940 estimated flow-through tax liability.

G50 Corp has moved from early-stage exploration towards a two-project drilling campaign, backed by a post-year-end A$26.25 million placement. The company remains loss-making and reliant on exploration success, but says the capital allows uninterrupted work at its Arizona and Nevada projects.

VBX has expanded the Wuudagu Bauxite Project’s resource to 143.2 million tonnes, but its FY26 accounts expose acute funding pressure, with just $301,208 in cash and an auditor warning of material uncertainty over going concern.

Krakatoa Resources has reported a second batch of strong antimony and gold assays from drilling at its Zopkhito project in Georgia, led by a 5.61-metre interval grading 3.31g/t gold and 4.28% antimony. The results add support to mineralisation continuity, but the project remains at the exploration stage ahead of drilling, metallurgical work and a planned JORC resource estimate.

New Talisman Gold Mines has outlined a conceptual exploration target of up to 550,000 ounces of gold beyond its existing 350,000-ounce gold-equivalent resource at the Talisman Project. The company now plans 18 to 20 drillholes in calendar Q1 2027 to test six priority mineralised structures.
