Latest Northern Territory News

Tamboran Resources has moved into initial Beetaloo gas sales, but its first annual report after the milestone still records no fiscal 2026 revenue, a $30.5 million loss and substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The company held $219.1 million in cash at June 30, yet faces heavy development spending, no proved reserves and a material weakness in financial controls.

Bubalus Resources finished 2026 with $3.03 million in cash after posting a $1.62 million loss and writing off $1.01 million of exploration assets. The exploration company is narrowing its focus across Victorian gold, rare earths and lithium targets, but says further funding may be required.

Tamboran Resources has delivered first gas from the Beetaloo Basin into the Northern Territory network, while completing its Sturt Plateau compression facility about US$9 million below forecast. The commercial milestone remains an early-stage start: volumes are demand-limited and commissioning is still underway.

Far Northern Resources expanded its Northern Territory gold inventory to 117,000 ounces during FY26, while Bridge Creek moved closer to mining studies. The progress came alongside a wider annual loss, falling cash reserves and an auditor-emphasised going-concern consideration.

Litchfield Minerals has expanded its Harts Range exploration model, raised A$8 million and ended FY2026 with A$4.6 million in cash. The opportunity is growing, but the auditor flagged material uncertainty over the company’s ability to fund future operations.

PC Gold has reported broad, higher-than-modelled gold intersections at Spring Hill, including a 29.65-metre zone grading 4.32 g/t gold. Several assays remain outstanding, but the results extend Link Zone mineralisation about 30 metres beyond the current model ahead of a planned December 2026 resource update.

Greenvale Energy has identified six additional uranium targets at its Thunderball Project in the Northern Territory, tied to a newly interpreted fault structure and coincident geophysical anomalies. Early laboratory results also support uranium anomalism at Wildcard South and along a possible Hayes Creek Fault splay, although drilling has yet to begin.

Patronus Resources has struck a 44-metre gold interval at its Hydra target in the Northern Territory, with the hole ending in mineralisation and follow-up drilling brought forward. Early results from Grove Hill also returned gold, but the wide-spaced campaign remains far from defining a resource.

Castile Resources has emerged from FY2026 with a larger Rover 1 resource, stronger preliminary project economics and A$9.37 million in cash. The next challenge is converting a A$1.07 billion pre-tax NPV8 study into a funded, permitted mining project.

PC Gold’s Spring Hill project emerged from FY2026 with a sharply larger resource, fresh institutional funding and a clearer path towards feasibility studies. The gold explorer remains pre-production and loss-making, but its post-year-end A$75 million raise gives it substantial room to expand drilling and development work.

DeSoto Resources has assembled about 1,300 square kilometres of gold tenure in Guinea’s Siguiri Basin, but the expansion came with a A$15.0 million FY2026 loss and a A$6.35 million write-off of Northern Territory exploration assets. The company enters FY2027 with drilling, geophysics and tenure renewals still to convert its large portfolio into a defined resource.

Gibb River Diamonds reported a A$5.61 million profit after receiving a A$7 million pre-GST distribution from its Neta gold joint venture. The cash windfall leaves the explorer with A$6.74 million in the bank, but its next challenge is converting a one-off mining payment into a credible development pipeline.
