Manuka Resources has received its first gold revenue after restarting processing at the Wonawinta plant in New South Wales. The company expects fortnightly gold revenue of A$3.0 million to A$4.0 million through the end of 2026, although sales remain dependent on the plant reaching steady state.

Fulcrum Lithium has staked 41 additional claims around its Alkali Flats project in Nevada and reported up to 79% lithium extraction from acid-free roast and water-leach tests. The results improve on earlier water-leach work, although they remain below the company’s 93% to 96% sulfuric-acid benchmark and come from scoping-level tests.

Group 6 Metals has posted a dramatic FY26 turnaround, with revenue reaching $129.0 million and net profit after tax rising to $148.2 million. The stronger balance sheet now faces its next test: converting stockpile-fed production and newly started underground mining into repeatable cash generation.

Codrus Minerals has completed its acquisition of EdgeMet, adding copper and molybdenum exploration projects in Queensland and Peru alongside early-stage technology from Rice University. The transaction was funded with 230 million shares, 60 million performance rights and A$100,000 in upfront cash.

APC Minerals has replaced its FY2026 annual report after finding a version-control error in the independent auditor’s report. The corrected filing leaves a more consequential warning intact: the explorer needs near-term equity funding to remain a going concern.

Riversgold has lodged the Mine Development and Closure Proposal for its Northern Zone open-pit project near Kalgoorlie, moving the planned mine into its final major approval phase. The project remains conditional on regulatory sign-offs, but MEGA Resources is set to fund development under an extended cooperation agreement.

Prospect Resources has reported its first Phase 3 infill assays from Nyungu Central, including 18 metres at 1.31% copper, while extensional drilling continues to identify broad mineralisation beyond the existing resource. Twenty Nyungu Central assay results remain pending as the company advances toward a Q1 2027 Mumbezhi Scoping Study.

Flagship Minerals has outlined a conceptual 22 million to 40 million tonne tungsten Exploration Target at its Khao Soon project in southern Thailand. The company is now weighing a sale, spin-out or joint venture for the non-core asset, but the target remains well short of a Mineral Resource.

KGL Resources has awarded Sedgman the design, procurement and construction contract for the processing plant at its Jervois Copper Project, moving the Northern Territory development closer to a final investment decision. The expanded scope includes early installation work for future plant additions, while KGL says the contract remains consistent with its baseline cost and schedule assumptions.

ACDC Metals has secured Bureau of Land Management approval for a 15-hole exploration program and a 12 line-kilometre geophysical survey at its Mount Jackson project in Nevada. Field activity is expected to begin in October, with drilling targeted for the fourth quarter of 2026.

Tolu Minerals has set out a Q1 2027 restart target for its Tolukuma gold-silver mine in Papua New Guinea, backed by a recently upgraded 909,000-ounce resource and refurbishment of an existing processing plant. The company says it has sufficient funding to reach production, but the timetable remains dependent on mine development, plant work and operating execution.

Alara Resources has shipped its 65th copper-concentrate parcel from Oman, closing out a record quarter with approximately 2,952 tonnes of contained copper sales. September’s total was 42% above the previous quarterly record and nearly double the comparable quarter a year earlier.
