Latest Niobium News

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.

Tyranna Resources has reported a A$3.72 million FY2026 loss, A$370,484 in closing cash and an auditor-flagged material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company has since sold its Namibe project, raised A$1 million and committed to a new rare earths earn-in in Angola.

Aldoro Resources has expanded its Kameelburg rare earths, strontium and niobium resource in Namibia to 804.5 million tonnes, including a maiden 162.1Mt Indicated category. The technical progress is substantial, but the annual report also flags a $15.7 million loss, just $78,561 in year-end cash and material uncertainty over ongoing funding.

Aurora Energy Metals (ASX:1AE) swung to a $21.8 million profit after selling its Oregon uranium project, but the result was driven largely by a non-cash accounting gain. The company’s concentrated Eagle Nuclear Energy stake was valued at about $15.5 million by the annual report date, down from $23.9 million at 30 June.

RareX has moved Cummins Range through key permitting and heritage milestones, while stronger metallurgical results broaden the project’s critical-minerals potential. But the explorer’s annual loss widened to A$5.07 million, cash burn remained high and its going-concern assessment still depends on future funding and project development.

Gold Mountain expanded its Brazilian rare earths portfolio during FY2026, taking Irajuba beyond its original conceptual target and confirming ionic adsorption clay characteristics at Capivara. The progress came alongside an $8.137 million loss, a $4.798 million impairment charge and continued reliance on equity funding.

Maverick Minerals finished FY2026 with $5.3 million in cash after raising $6 million, but warned that further funding will be needed to sustain its expanded exploration program. The auditor highlighted a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

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.

St George Mining’s Araxá project now boasts a 111.2Mt rare earths resource after a major post-year-end upgrade, alongside 630,000 tonnes of contained niobium. The 2026 annual report shows a company moving rapidly towards development, but still without an ore reserve, mine design or production decision.

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.

New Frontier Minerals advanced its copper and rare earths portfolio during FY2026, but the annual report highlights a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company ended the year with $1.23 million in cash after a $2.25 million placement and ongoing exploration spending.

QEM Limited (ASX:QEM) has suspended non-essential work at its Julia Creek vanadium project after metallurgical results undermined the 2024 Scoping Study. The loss-making explorer is now relying on newly acquired Idaho projects, fresh capital and further exploration to justify its next chapter.
