Latest Resource Estimation News

NeuRizer has secured agreements worth AUD$12.7 million with Reliance Industries, offering a potential funding bridge for its coal-gasification technology. But the company’s FY2025 accounts show a larger loss, just $183,666 in year-end cash and a material dependence on continued funding and creditor support.

Ragnar Metals has identified at least five interpreted mineralised shoots at its Harnäs gold project in Sweden, but the exploration-led company ended FY2026 with only $233,220 in cash. The annual report also restates FY2025 after previously omitted Kaiser Reef options were recognised at $779,288.

Pure Resources finished 2026 with $3.67 million in cash and no debt after raising $4.7 million, but its annual loss widened as it shifted from explorer to a Garnet Hills-led advanced materials platform. The company is now pursuing garnet abrasives, jumbo flake graphite and heavy rare earth recovery through US research and defence partnerships.

Caprice Resources has put its Murchison gold portfolio at the centre of a larger exploration campaign after extending Vadrians mineralisation and raising A$12.8 million. The company remains pre-production and loss-making, with a maiden resource estimate still to come.

West Coast Silver has crossed from explorer to resource-stage company after defining 2.795 million ounces of contained silver at Elizabeth Hill. The project has generated strong drilling results and fresh funding, but the company remains loss-making and yet to establish an economic development case.

SQX Resources Limited (ASX:SQX) has emerged from a transformational year with two advanced US gold projects, broad shallow mineralisation at Red Bird and exceptional underground assays at Williams. The exploration gains came alongside a $1.83 million loss, falling cash and a further $2.47 million capital raising completed after year-end.

Gold Mountain expanded its Brazilian rare earths portfolio during FY2026, taking Irajuba beyond its original conceptual target and confirming ionic adsorption clay characteristics at Capivara. The progress came alongside an $8.137 million loss, a $4.798 million impairment charge and continued reliance on equity funding.

Redcastle Resources reached its biggest operational milestone in FY2026 by starting mining at Redcastle Reef, but the project was temporarily suspended after Wiluna Mining halted relevant processing activities. The annual report also flags a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Lode Resources has reported a statutory profit of A$456,296 after establishing an 8.2Moz silver-equivalent resource at its Montezuma project in Tasmania. The explorer is now moving from discovery toward scoping studies, but remains reliant on further drilling, metallurgy and funding to demonstrate an economic development case.

Antares Metals delivered its busiest exploration year yet, reporting high-grade copper, uranium and gold results across Queensland and Western Australia. But the explorer ended FY2026 with just $581,438 in cash, while its auditor flagged a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

Estrella Resources has delivered a 27,371-tonne manganese stockpile and a maiden 621-million-tonne limestone resource in Timor-Leste, but the operational progress came alongside a $23.98 million FY2026 loss and a $21.13 million impairment of Western Australian assets. The next test is whether the manganese stockpile can become cash and whether Werumata can move beyond an Inferred resource.

GBM Resources has paired encouraging gold results beyond the existing Twin Hills resource with a substantially stronger balance sheet after a A$40 million placement and convertible-note repayment. The exploration-stage company finished the year with A$31.7 million in cash, but its next resource upgrade still depends on assays and further drilling.
