Latest Rare Earths News

Dalaroo Metals has moved from a Western Australian base-metals explorer into a three-country gold and critical-minerals play, but its next phase depends on drilling success and continued access to capital. The annual report records a $2.63 million loss, $509,442 in year-end cash and a material uncertainty over going concern.

Magnetite Mines has warned that its existing cash is insufficient to fund planned activities for the next 12 months, while auditors highlighted a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ASX-listed miner is cutting costs and reshaping Razorback around a lower-capital development pathway.

Mount Ridley Mines has used its FY2026 annual report to put scale and processing progress at the centre of its Grass Patch story, including a post-year-end scandium resource upgrade to 946.1 million tonnes. The company remains loss-making and pre-production, but September testwork reported approximately 92% scandium recovery and average heavy rare earth recovery of about 84%.

Verity Resources has expanded its Monument gold story in Western Australia, but the explorer’s stronger resource base sits alongside a sharply higher annual loss, A$4.67 million operating cash outflow and a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company finished FY2026 with A$1.05 million in cash and more than A$2.39 million of exploration commitments due within a year.

Maverick Minerals finished FY2026 with $5.3 million in cash after raising $6 million, but warned that further funding will be needed to sustain its expanded exploration program. The auditor highlighted a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

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.

Heavy Rare Earths has identified high-grade heavy rare earth zones at Subron while preparing drilling across its South Australian portfolio. But the FY2026 report also highlights a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, with only $459,327 in cash at year-end.

Axel REE has more than doubled the Woolrich resource to 264.6 million tonnes and delivered its first Indicated classification at the Brazilian rare earths project. The upgrade comes as the loss-making explorer prepares a controlled in-situ recovery field validation program, with A$5.73 million in cash at year-end.

European Lithium reported a A$930.6 million FY2026 profit, but the headline result was dominated by a A$1.276 billion accounting gain after losing control of Critical Metals Corp. The company now heads towards an October vote on a merger that would fold its cash, CRML stake and mineral assets into a single NASDAQ-listed group.

MRG Metals has reported exceptional rare earth grades at its newly acquired Garies project and advanced its Mozambique portfolio, but the explorer remains dependent on capital markets. The FY26 annual report flags material uncertainty over going concern despite a subsequent A$725,000 placement and a further share purchase plan.

Conico's statutory loss widened sharply in FY2026, largely because of non-cash share-based payments linked to its recapitalisation. The company ended the year debt free with $2.53 million in cash, but warned that funding remains critical as it prepares for Mt Thirsty drilling.

NewPeak Metals reported a $4.36 million FY2026 profit, but the result was driven mainly by fair-value gains and investment disposals rather than mining revenue. The auditor has flagged a material uncertainty over going concern even after the explorer secured a post-year-end $3.5 million placement.
