Latest Resource Updates News

Cannindah Resources has reported preliminary NovaCell testwork recovering 94% of copper and 92% of silver at a substantially coarser grind, while rejecting 82% of processed material. The results could support a higher-throughput, lower-energy processing route, although gold recovery and concentrate quality still require further work.

Canterbury Resources has reported a broad copper-molybdenum intercept at Briggs while early core observations suggest its John Hill deposit may extend beyond the current resource boundary. The results support ongoing resource upgrades and feasibility work, but John Hill assays are still pending.

Many Peaks Minerals has extended the tested vertical depth of gold mineralisation at its Ferké project by about 70%, with a deepest intercept returning 40.3 metres at 3.89g/t gold. The results support a planned resource update and preliminary assessment of underground mining, but remain exploration results outside the current resource.

Anax Metals has moved its Whim Creek copper-zinc project closer to a targeted investment decision, backed by strong feasibility economics and new drilling. But the annual report makes clear that development still depends on securing further funding, with the auditor warning of a material uncertainty over going concern.

Future Metals has reshaped its Panton development plan around a potentially lower-capital Savannah processing route, but entered FY27 with only A$1.46 million in cash and a formal warning over future funding. A post-year-end A$3.56 million raising now funds the next study phase, including a larger updated resource base.

Saturn Metals has extended the Apollo Hill gold system up to 1km north of its existing 2.83Moz Mineral Resource, with several high-grade intersections among the latest results. A 50-hole, 10,000m RC program is now underway to test continuity and support a planned resource update.

Iltani Resources has reported some of its strongest Orient West drilling results, including a 2-metre intercept grading 2,561 g/t silver equivalent. The company says the latest 16 holes support continuity and could underpin an expanded Mineral Resource later this year.

Tolu Minerals has more than doubled its reported gold resources to 1.33 million ounces after declaring a maiden 293,000-ounce resource at Mt Penck in Papua New Guinea. The project also carries a largely untested copper-gold porphyry target, but its proposed A$30 million exploration program still requires separate funding.

New assays from Sinclair Gold’s Mt Henry project extend mineralisation beyond the current 1.8Moz resource at both Mt Henry and Selene. Five rigs are continuing step-out drilling, with 33 holes outside the resource footprint still awaiting assays.

Broken Hill Gold has lifted the Vertigo deposit’s Indicated oxide resource by 160% and increased White Dam’s global resource to 118,496 ounces. The company is now testing whether shallow material can support a heap-leach restart while drilling deeper gold-copper sulphide potential.

Sunstone Metals has expanded its Bramaderos gold-equivalent resource to 3.6Moz and reported new Porotillo and Copete discoveries, but its FY2026 accounts carry a material uncertainty over going concern. A post-year-end A$9.94 million placement has improved liquidity, although further equity funding remains central to the exploration plan.

Pivotal Metals has used its FY2026 annual report to position Horden Lake as a larger, better-understood Quebec copper project, with a maiden scoping study targeted for September. The company also expanded Belleterre drilling and added the Bambino project, but remains loss-making and dependent on further funding.
