Australian Critical Minerals says one extended drill hole at its Flint project in Peru has strengthened the case for a near-surface epithermal system and a deeper concealed porphyry target. The interpretation remains conceptual, with no economic-grade intersections or mineral resource reported.

Codrus Minerals Limited posted a $1.41 million loss for FY26 as it confirmed gold and molybdenum mineralisation at Bull Run, rationalised its portfolio, and secured a binding acquisition of EdgeMet with a $2.5 million capital raise underway.

AusQuest’s latest diamond drilling at the Cangallo project in Peru pushes copper mineralisation down to at least 800 metres and reveals multiple higher-grade zones, reinforcing the scale of this emerging porphyry system.

IMEXHS Limited has swung to a profit of $66,200 in 1H FY26, driven by a 17% revenue increase and a surge in underlying EBITDA to $1.27 million. The company’s AI-native radiology platform and Latin American partner expansion underpin growth amid ongoing sector liquidity challenges.

Eagle Mountain Mining has kicked off a 6,000-metre drilling program at its Oracle Ridge copper project in Arizona, funded and operated by JV partner Nittetsu Mining. The campaign aims to expand known mineralisation and explore new targets identified by recent geophysical surveys.

AusQuest’s maiden RC drilling at Lantana in Peru confirms porphyry-related alteration and anomalous copper, pointing to a concealed mineralised system beneath cover. The results set the stage for targeted geophysical surveys and follow-up drilling.

Fortescue Ltd delivered a record 201.3 million tonnes of iron ore in FY26, alongside a 3% rise in underlying net profit after tax to US$3.47 billion, despite a significant $750 million impairment charge on its Iron Bridge asset. The miner declared a fully franked final dividend of A$0.46 per share and continues to advance its ambitious decarbonisation and growth agenda.

Patriot Resources has locked in a $3 million placement to fund exploration at its flagship Tassa silver-gold project in Peru and a new copper discovery in Zambia, underpinning its strategy to grow high-grade mineral resources.

Lycopodium Limited has won a A$37 million EPCM contract to develop a new silver oxide processing plant at Bolivia’s San Cristóbal Mine, aiming to boost silver production alongside existing operations.

Patriot Resources has expanded its silver-gold footprint in southern Peru by staking the Tassa 5 tenement, increasing its landholding by 50% and pushing the mineralised corridor further south adjacent to its 31.4Moz AgEq inferred resource.

Codrus Minerals is set to acquire two promising copper and molybdenum projects in Australia and Peru, backed by a $2.5 million capital raise. The deal includes significant share issuance and performance rights tied to exploration milestones.

Strike Resources is progressing the sale of a 28.52% indirect stake in its high-grade Apurímac Iron Ore Project for A$5.5 million, while advancing exploration programs and preparing for potential small-scale mining under Peru’s artisanal regime. The company also holds a 27.7% interest in LE Minerals, which is spinning out its Graphite Projects via an IPO.
