Boom Logistics has secured an expected $18 million, 35-week contract to provide crane services for Neoen’s 179 MW Narrogin Wind Farm in Western Australia. The award gives its FY27 wind division an early revenue platform, although the announcement does not disclose margins or earnings contribution.

Barton Gold has completed its 38,760-metre Phase 2 drilling program at Tunkillia with a series of broad, high-grade gold intersections across planned starter pits. The results now feed into an updated gold Resource, followed by a silver update and pre-feasibility study targeted for the first quarter of 2027.

LGI Limited (ASX:LGI) is buying two operating Queensland solar farms for $22 million, adding 42MW of export capacity at a price below the company’s stated greenfield replacement cost. The transaction lifts LGI’s targeted medium-term renewable and dispatchable capacity pipeline beyond 120MW, although the projected earnings contribution depends on electricity prices, synergies and software integration.

Delorean Corporation’s SA1 Salisbury renewable gas project is more than 85% complete after the company returned to near break-even EBITDA in FY2026. But the annual report carries a material uncertainty over going concern, leaving commissioning, refinancing and new funding as critical tests for the ASX-listed developer.

Energy Technologies has reported a deeper FY2026 loss, collapsing revenue and a $22.65 million equity deficiency, with its auditor flagging material uncertainty over the group’s ability to continue as a going concern. A five-year laser optics licence offers a potential new revenue path, but it remains conditional on development and future commercial sales.

Firebird Metals is moving from manganese exploration towards downstream battery materials, with its Perth demonstration plant backed by a A$2 million ARENA grant. But the ASX-listed company remains loss-making, has A$3.61 million in cash and faces a material uncertainty over its ability to continue without further funding.

Critical Minerals Group has put a substantial economic case around its Lindfield vanadium project, but its FY26 accounts also flag a material uncertainty over funding. The company is targeting a 2027 investment decision while holding less than A$1 million in year-end cash and navigating a leadership change.

Zimplats delivered a sharp FY2026 earnings rebound, with revenue up 57% and profit after tax rising to US$276.7 million. The result was driven mainly by stronger PGM prices, while lower sales volumes, higher unit costs, no dividend and rising sulphur dioxide emissions temper the celebration.

GenusPlus Group has secured an approximately $135 million design and construct contract for the grid connection of Atmos Renewables’ 470MW Parron Maam Marang Farm in Western Australia. The award offers work through 2028, although the main construction phase remains conditional on project milestones including financial close and a Notice to Proceed.

Advanced Engineered Materials is forecasting a sharp lift in second-half sales as its Quebec high-purity alumina operation moves from qualification work towards commercial production. The larger prize is a possible 6,000-tonne-per-year expansion, but that plan still depends on feasibility, financing and final investment approval.

Delorean Corporation and Opal have completed the concept stage for a proposed anaerobic digestion facility at Opal’s Maryvale Mill in Victoria. The project could replace natural gas used by the mill’s rotary lime kiln, but still requires further engineering, commercial work and a final investment decision.

Simble Solutions is extending its NanoSensor technology into terrestrial solar monitoring, using its existing SimbleSense and CarbonView platforms as a potential route to commercialisation. The opportunity remains at the benchmark-testing stage, with space-based solar identified as a longer-term possibility rather than an immediate product or revenue stream.
