QEM has completed its move into Idaho, acquiring the Big It and Garden Valley projects and outlining staged exploration of historical tungsten, antimony, gold and rare-metal targets. The company ended September with $3.98 million in cash while keeping major Julia Creek expenditure on hold.

Patronus Resources enters FY2027 with approximately 2.3 million ounces of gold-equivalent Mineral Resources, $65.1 million in cash and liquid investments, and a 30,000-metre Northern Territory drilling campaign underway. The annual report also records an $8.6 million net loss and a proposed uranium rights transaction that remains conditional.

Ausmon Resources has outlined a potential path towards maiden rare earths resource work in South Australia, but the explorer remains heavily dependent on external funding. An auditor has identified a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

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.

Greenvale Energy has identified a substantial 9km-long paleochannel uranium target at its Thunderball Project in the Northern Territory, setting the stage for maiden drilling and further geophysical surveys.

Greenvale Energy is pushing forward with its strategic acquisition of uranium rights at Pine Creek, aiming to create a 2,500km² contiguous exploration footprint alongside Douglas River. A critical shareholder vote is set for August 24 to approve the deal.
