Latest Prospective Resources News

Melbana Energy’s Block 9 project remains on care and maintenance after a partner default and US sanctions on CUPET, despite improved geological understanding from Amistad-2. The company ended FY2026 with $472,504 in cash and warned that additional funding is required to continue.

Carnarvon Energy has expanded its Bedout prospective resource inventory by 92% and secured a rig for a 2027 exploration campaign, but Dorado remains stalled before FEED and FID. The company ended FY26 with A$97.7 million in cash, no debt and a A$4.2 million after-tax loss.

Tetragon Energy has reported a $470,635 comprehensive loss in its first annual report, while highlighting a Philippine exploration portfolio carrying 3.214 Tcf of net mid-case prospective gas resources. The newly listed explorer ended the period with $715,713 in cash, before raising $4 million through its July ASX listing.

Grand Gulf Energy has reported a sharply wider FY2026 loss after impairing $15.03 million of Red Helium exploration assets. The auditor also flagged material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue without further capital.

D3 Energy has lifted its combined 2C recoverable helium resource by 65% to 35.6 BCF while securing A$6.12 million in fresh capital. The annual report also shows the cost of advancing the portfolio, with the FY2026 loss widening to A$6.11 million and operating cash outflow reaching A$3.84 million.

Prospect Resources has taken its flagship Mumbezhi Copper Project to 208.1 million tonnes, while lifting ownership to 90% and securing A$45 million for the next phase of work. The project remains pre-production, leaving the upcoming Scoping Study and further drilling to convert geological scale into an economic case.

Bounty Oil & Gas NL (ASX:BUY) is pursuing a 2,322 km² deepwater exploration block offshore Liberia, backed by a $3.55 million placement and major vendor-linked securities. The opportunity remains conditional: the block has no executed production sharing contract, no independent resource estimate and has not yet been reviewed directly by Bounty.

Gold Hydrogen has advanced Ramsay drilling, testing and commercial studies, but its annual report carries a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The pre-revenue explorer ended FY2026 with $9.42 million in cash after spending heavily on exploration.

Galilee Energy has shifted the Zydeco-1 sidetrack from its original gas-condensate focus to five shallow oil zones carrying up to 422.6 thousand barrels of gross unrisked Prospective Resources. The A$3.5 million placement is expected to fund the revised oil testing and potential production design.

Central Petroleum has swung to a $4.9 million FY2026 statutory loss after writing down two Amadeus Basin permits, but its gas business generated higher revenue and margins. The company is now betting on Palm Valley drilling, long-term contracts and new east coast acreage to restore growth.

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.

Prospect Resources has expanded drilling at Nyungu Central after returning a 27-metre copper intercept outside the existing resource, while maiden drilling at Sharamba confirms a new copper discovery. The results add momentum to Mumbezhi’s growth story, but most Phase 3 assays remain outstanding and no resource update has yet been made.
