Pioneer Minerals has warned of a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern after closing FY2026 with just A$80,302 in cash. The company is relying on a proposed A$2.5 million capital raising while pushing its Idaho tungsten-gold-gallium project towards maiden drilling.

Omnia Metals has shifted its exploration focus to US antimony, silver, rare earths and gallium projects, backed by $3.1 million in equity raisings. Early Montana sampling produced follow-up targets, but the company remains loss-making and says the results are reconnaissance-scale rather than evidence of a resource.

Green Technology Metals has cleared the environmental assessment for its Seymour lithium project, while a A$15.9 million capital raising leaves the company better placed to complete its definitive feasibility study. The next test is whether permitting, financing and Indigenous agreements can convert that progress into a Final Investment Decision in FY27.

Tempest Minerals has reported a $4.62 million FY2026 loss after impairing $3.28 million of exploration assets, while cash fell to $969,693. The company retains exposure to Range gold drilling, the Remorse iron deposit and a $3.08 million Capricorn Metals shareholding, but says further funding will be needed to sustain exploration.

PTR Minerals has posted a 463 million tonne maiden resource for its Rosewood titanium project, backed by strong early processing results and fresh funding. The next test is whether the large geological inventory can become an economically viable mine.

ACDC Metals enters FY27 with a larger Nevada exploration footprint and a 10-year licence over its Goschen Central rare earths project, but a sharply higher annual loss and ongoing funding needs remain part of the picture. The company plans up to 2,500 metres of reverse-circulation drilling at Mount Jackson in Q4 CY2026.

Australian Gold and Copper expanded its exploration footprint and advanced major targets during FY2026, but the campaign came with a larger loss and a sharp reduction in cash. The company now has a 38.5Moz silver-equivalent Achilles resource, a newly acquired Junee gold portfolio and further funding demands ahead.

Oceana Metals has begun a 20,000-metre diamond drilling campaign at its Serra Negra rare earths project in Brazil, backed by high-grade historic assays and fresh capital. But the company’s $11.5 million FY2026 loss and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over going concern add a harder edge to the exploration story.

Eclipse Metals has enlarged its flagship Grønnedal rare-earth resource to 208 million tonnes and added a maiden Ivigtût critical-minerals inventory. The gains came alongside a higher annual loss, a material going-concern uncertainty and an unresolved legal claim.

Tennant Minerals has reported a high-grade maiden resource and further strong drilling at its Bluebird copper-gold discovery, but the annual report carries a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. A $2.8 million capital raise completed around year-end provides near-term funding, while further exploration and processing studies remain ahead.

West Cobar Metals ended FY2026 with more cash but a larger loss and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over its ability to continue without further funding. Exploration advanced across Salazar and Cobar West, but the company remains dependent on equity markets to keep its programmes moving.

Falcon Metals has extended mineralised strike at its Blue Moon project beyond 850 metres while increasing exploration spending sharply and raising $30 million after year-end. The results remain exploration-stage, but the company now has substantially more drilling capacity and a second maiden campaign underway in Western Australia.
