Latest Permitting News

H3 Energy has consolidated ownership of its Alinya hydrogen and helium project and reframed Warro as a potential commercial gas development, but its annual report warns that funding remains critical. The company ended FY2026 with A$900,434 in cash, net liabilities of A$551,671 and a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

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.

Charger Metals has reduced its FY2026 loss and secured $3.75 million from the sale of Bynoe, giving the lithium explorer more room to advance its Lake Johnston assets. The company’s Medcalf resource now stands at 10.6Mt, although further drilling and funding will be needed to test its economic potential.

American Rare Earths has expanded the proposed Cowboy State Mine in Wyoming to a 4.5 million tonne per year operation with a 26-year mine plan and an estimated after-tax NPV of US$1.07 billion. The stronger study case comes with higher capital, lower recoveries and no Ore Reserves, leaving metallurgy, permitting and funding as the next tests.

Imagion Biosystems has secured central ethics approval for its US Phase 1b/2 trial of the MagSense HER2 imaging agent, removing a key requirement before recruitment can begin. Site activation is now underway, but no patient has yet been enrolled and the announcement provides no clinical data.

Mayne Pharma has settled patent litigation with Sun Pharma over IMVEXXY, establishing 21 October 2032 as the agreed potential generic entry date, subject to court approval. The settlement involves no upfront payment, while one further Paragraph IV dispute remains unresolved.

Silver Mines has built a substantially larger economic case for Bowdens, but the project still needs NSW approval before its 93.5 million ounce reserve can become a mine. The company is now funding the next phase with a A$70 million placement while absorbing dilution and a major royalty buy-back.

Larvotto Resources has extended high-grade antimony-gold-tungsten mineralisation at Clarks Gully about 100 metres beyond its 2025 resource model, with drilling also identifying several hanging-wall lodes. The results could support a larger resource and a potential underground feed source for Hillgrove, but assays, modelling and permitting work remain outstanding.

Felix Gold advanced bulk extraction, processing and refinery plans at its Alaska antimony project in FY26, but the push came with a larger loss, falling cash and an auditor-documented material uncertainty over going concern. A potential US$18 million Department of Energy award remains subject to negotiation rather than a committed funding source.

Accelerate Resources enters FY2027 with high-grade manganese targets at Woodie Woodie North and new gold zones at Balagundi, but a sharp annual loss and ongoing funding needs remain part of the story. The company plans maiden and follow-up drilling while seeking shareholder approval to rename itself Mango Metals.

PDI Gold’s first full annual report after its Robex merger shows a transformed West African gold business with US$193.7 million in cash and two producing mines. The statutory result remains a US$63.7 million loss, while Bankan’s next phase still depends on an exploitation permit from Guinea.

Odyssey Gold has secured a native vegetation clearing permit and a new mining lease at Tuckanarra, while refurbishment work at the planned Kirkalocka processing facility moves ahead. The first toll milling parcel is targeted for June 2027, but a required joint venture agreement remains unresolved.
