Askari Metals cut its annual loss by half, but the improvement came alongside continued cash burn, heavy equity issuance and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company is now relying on further funding while it prepares exploration programs in Ethiopia and Namibia.

Cassius Mining reported a deeper FY2026 loss, negative net assets and a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company is relying on further funding, a possible Ghana arbitration award and progress at its Soalara limestone project to support its next phase.

Apollo Minerals ended 2026 with A$7.74 million in cash and no debt after raising A$9.3 million, but remains a loss-making explorer with no JORC Mineral Resources or production. The company is now concentrating its exploration story on the reinstated Couflens tungsten-gold project in France, while carrying a conceptual zinc-lead target in Gabon.

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.

Rincon Resources posted a $6.96 million FY2026 loss after writing down $5.53 million of exploration assets, while its cash balance rose following a $3.1 million placement. The explorer has narrowed its focus to Telfer South and Crackerbox, but remains dependent on future drilling and funding.

Tribune Resources delivered a sharply stronger FY2026 result, with revenue up 28.4% and profit attributable to shareholders rising to $75.7 million. The result was helped by a $35.0 million reversal of the prior Raleigh impairment, while operating cash flow and year-end cash both fell.

Avira Resources has expanded its Mt Cattlin drilling story with encouraging high-grade results, but the explorer’s annual report carries a material uncertainty over its ability to continue without further capital. The company ended FY2026 with $1.45 million in cash against a $986,980 loss and $1.21 million in operating and investing outflows.

Krakatoa Resources advanced drilling at its flagship Zopkhito antimony-gold project in Georgia, but the exploration push more than doubled its annual loss and reduced cash to $739,459. The company subsequently raised $4 million, highlighting the funding needed to keep moving towards a maiden JORC-compliant resource.

Clara Resources has pivoted decisively from coal to gold, but its Mareeba ambition sits alongside a $7.36 million annual loss, only $112,000 in year-end cash and a disclosed material uncertainty over going concern. The company is now relying on drilling, asset-sale proceeds and further capital to keep the strategy moving.

Pilbara Gold has lifted the Mt York resource by 50% to 2.08 million ounces while advancing a prefeasibility study and restarting drilling at Roe Hills. The annual report also warns that planned exploration spending could require another capital raise within 12 months.

Emu NL has moved from geological validation at Fiery Creek into a larger drilling campaign at its Yataga Valley copper project, after ending FY2026 with $3.15 million in cash. The progress comes with a material warning: the auditor said the company’s ability to continue as a going concern depends on securing further capital.

Minerals 260 has emerged from FY26 with a 6.2Moz Bullabulling resource, a maiden 2.5Moz reserve and a pre-feasibility study pointing to a 19-year gold operation. The project is now moving into definitive feasibility, but debt funding, approvals and a final investment decision remain ahead.
