Latest Pre Feasibility Study News

Broken Hill Gold has lifted the Vertigo deposit’s Indicated oxide resource by 160% and increased White Dam’s global resource to 118,496 ounces. The company is now testing whether shallow material can support a heap-leach restart while drilling deeper gold-copper sulphide potential.

WA1 Resources has ended FY26 with a larger, higher-confidence Luni niobium resource, encouraging processing results and A$123.8 million in cash. The project now moves towards a targeted Q4 CY2026 Pre-Feasibility Study, with permitting, funding and commercial viability still ahead.

Antipa Minerals has expanded its Minyari Project resource to 3.6 million ounces of gold equivalent and advanced key pre-feasibility work, including conventional processing and deeper open-pit studies. The progress comes with an auditor-highlighted going-concern uncertainty as the company prepares for further exploration and development spending.

Sky Metals has used FY2026 to move Tallebung from exploration toward development, combining more than 500 drill holes with strong ore-sorting results and progress into NSW’s environmental approval process. The advance came alongside a A$5.37 million loss and continuing reliance on equity funding.

Maronan Metals has reported broad and high-grade silver-lead intersections from its ongoing 40,000-metre infill program, including 11 metres at 10.3% lead and 116g/t silver. More than 15,000 metres have now been completed, with results feeding a planned 2027 resource update and pre-feasibility study.

Red Metal’s Sybella project has moved closer to a development decision after heap-leach testing delivered strong rare earth extractions with low impurity levels. The company also reported a $19.17 million FY2026 profit, although most of that result came from the accounting gain tied to its Maronan Metals restructuring.

Latrobe Magnesium has detailed the capital, feedstock and valuation assumptions behind its proposed 50 ktpa magnesium plant in South Carolina. The project retains strong headline economics, but funding, feasibility work and a final investment decision remain ahead.

A new magnetotelluric survey has identified a large conductive anomaly beneath Strickland Metals’ Obradov Prospect in Serbia, adding another high-priority target to its 9.25Moz AuEq Rogozna project. The anomaly is supported by overlapping gravity, IP, geochemical and drilling evidence, but still requires drilling to establish whether it contains an economic mineralised system.

Barton Gold has reported broad, shallow high-grade gold intersections from its 39,000-metre Phase 2 drilling program at Tunkillia, including 11 metres at 8.73g/t gold. Final assays are still pending before updated gold and silver resources, with the pre-feasibility study targeted for Q1 CY27.

True North Copper has lifted the contained copper inventory across its Cloncurry Copper Project by approximately 18% through a larger Mongoose-Taipan resource. The update gives the late-2026 pre-feasibility study a bigger technical base, but it remains a mineral resource rather than an economic reserve.

True North Copper expanded its copper growth pipeline in FY26, but the annual report makes clear that exploration momentum still depends on fresh capital. The company ended the year with A$7.1 million in cash and a A$7.5 million Mt Oxide payment due in December.

Victory Metals has secured a 2,006-hectare mining lease for its North Stanmore heavy rare earths project in Western Australia. The grant removes a key tenure hurdle, but technical studies, approvals, offtake agreements and financing still stand between the project and a development decision.
