Mammoth Minerals expanded its Nevada exploration portfolio and drilled more than 21,000 metres at the Buster Trend, but its FY2026 report also highlights a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company posted a larger loss and remains dependent on future equity funding to sustain exploration.

Strike Resources delivered an A$8.58 million full-year profit, but the result was driven largely by its equity-accounted investment in LE Minerals rather than operating cash generation. The company is also relying on a conditional A$5.5 million Apurimac stake sale to strengthen its funding position in Peru.

AusQuest has materially expanded its Cangallo copper-gold discovery in Peru, but the exploration push came with a larger loss, a sharp rise in cash outflows and an auditor warning that further funding is likely within 12 months. The company ended FY2026 with $6.35 million in cash after a $10 million placement.

Condor Energy has consolidated 100% ownership of its offshore Peru acreage and moved its 1 Tcf Piedra Redonda gas discovery closer to commercialisation. The company enters FY2027 with a larger resource base and stronger project control, but auditors have warned that additional funding is needed to sustain operations.

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.
