Latest Project Acquisition News

Indiana Resources has finished FY2026 with A$30.1 million in cash and term deposits, promising exploration results in South Australia and an unresolved dispute over 18% of its Tanzania settlement proceeds. The company is also preparing for Managing Director and CEO Matthew Bowles to leave in November.

Odessa Minerals has expanded its Western Australian exploration targets and ended FY2026 with $3.66 million in cash, but its annual loss nearly doubled as equity-based payments increased. The company is now preparing a maiden 10,000-metre air-core program while remaining dependent on future funding and exploration success.

Red Mountain Mining’s annual report shows a sharp rise in losses and continued reliance on equity funding, with auditors flagging material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Exploration has expanded across antimony, tungsten and gold projects, but the portfolio remains dependent on future funding and successful drilling.

Oceana Metals has begun a 20,000-metre diamond drilling campaign at its Serra Negra rare earths project in Brazil, backed by high-grade historic assays and fresh capital. But the company’s $11.5 million FY2026 loss and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over going concern add a harder edge to the exploration story.

Power Minerals has repositioned around two Brazilian critical minerals projects, led by Morro do Ferro’s thick, high-grade rare earth intersections and a conceptual 10.7Mt Exploration Target. The shift comes with stronger funding and no borrowings, but the audited accounts warn that further financing remains essential.

Fin Resources’ first drilling campaign at Cabin Lake delivered gold in all eight holes, including two high-grade shallow intersections at Arrow. But the ASX-listed explorer also reported a sharply wider loss, a major impairment and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over its ability to continue without further capital.

Sunshine Metals reduced its annual loss and ended June with $20.6 million in cash, but its auditor flagged a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The warning comes as Sunshine funds the Mt Moss processing conversion, faces a $10 million deferred payment and targets first gold in mid-2027.

Medallion Metals has shifted from project preparation to execution, with Ravensthorpe fully permitted, Forrestania acquired and Cosmic Boy refurbishment underway. The transition is funded by cash, equity and a US$50 million Trafigura facility, but production delivery and rehabilitation liabilities remain substantial tests.

Iron Road’s largest shareholder has distributed its remaining 59.72% stake just as the company prepares to restart delayed nickel-copper-gold drilling at Irria. The transition also includes the November retirement of long-serving chief executive Larry Ingle, with no successor named.

Cazaly Resources will replace managing director Tara French with mining executive Adrian Byass from 8 October, while launching a review of its exploration portfolio. Byass will receive a $325,000 annual salary and may be granted up to 7 million performance rights, subject to approval and conditions.

Barys Resources is seeking up to A$2.64 million through a 1-for-1 entitlement offer priced at a 41% discount, with most proceeds earmarked for Kazakhstan gold exploration. But only A$800,000 is underwritten, leaving the final funding outcome and potential dilution dependent on shareholder participation.

Tivan has secured the regulatory and cultural heritage clearances needed to advance an 8,000-metre drilling campaign at its Molyhil tungsten project in the Northern Territory. The company will also issue 3.84 million shares as part-payment for the project acquisition, while its feasibility and proposed funding plans remain unfinished.
