Latest Resource Updates News

WA1 Resources has ended FY26 with a larger, higher-confidence Luni niobium resource, encouraging processing results and A$123.8 million in cash. The project now moves towards a targeted Q4 CY2026 Pre-Feasibility Study, with permitting, funding and commercial viability still ahead.

Great Boulder Resources has used FY2026 to make the leap from gold explorer toward producer, acquiring Peak Hill and securing a 481,000-ounce resource alongside its 1.02 million-ounce Side Well project. The strategic shift came with a A$9.93 million loss, a heavily expanded share count and a clear near-term test: whether 40,000 metres of drilling can support development by late 2027.

Aurum Resources has identified high-grade gold outside the current Mineral Resource at its BMT2 prospect in Côte d'Ivoire, including 2.38 metres at 22.01 g/t gold. The results arrive as the company moves towards a Boundiali resource update and Definitive Feasibility Study later this year.

Forrestania Resources has reported wide, high-grade gold intersections from 15 additional reverse circulation holes at British Hill in Western Australia. A diamond rig is now being mobilised to test below current RC drilling limits as the company works towards a larger mineral resource estimate.

Skylark Minerals has pushed its Côte d’Ivoire gold strategy forward, with M’Basso now extending across about 2km of strike. But the annual report also highlights a material uncertainty over funding, after the company ended the year with A$4.85 million in cash and a A$3.01 million loss.

Maronan Metals has reported broad and high-grade silver-lead intersections from its ongoing 40,000-metre infill program, including 11 metres at 10.3% lead and 116g/t silver. More than 15,000 metres have now been completed, with results feeding a planned 2027 resource update and pre-feasibility study.

Legacy Minerals has appointed WSP to assess scandium at its 100%-owned NiCo Young project, potentially adding a third critical mineral to a 167.8Mt inferred nickel-cobalt resource. The combined JORC update is expected in October, but no scandium resource has yet been established.

Prospect Resources has expanded drilling at Nyungu Central after returning a 27-metre copper intercept outside the existing resource, while maiden drilling at Sharamba confirms a new copper discovery. The results add momentum to Mumbezhi’s growth story, but most Phase 3 assays remain outstanding and no resource update has yet been made.

Sentinel Metals has reported broad, stacked gold mineralisation at its Columbia project in Montana, including a 48-metre intercept at 1.13g/t gold. Fire assays have also confirmed the company’s earlier high-grade maiden-hole result, while a November resource update now looms as the key test.

Corazon Mining has begun a 50-hole, approximately 7,500-metre RC drilling program at its Chalice Gold Project in Western Australia. The campaign will test near-surface extensions to the existing 191,000-ounce resource, while the company cautions that its larger 830,000-ounce Exploration Target remains conceptual.

Tolu Minerals has increased the Tolukuma gold resource by 81% to 909,000 ounces after four months of full-scale drilling, pushing its reported Papua New Guinea gold inventory above one million ounces. The proposed early 2027 restart now has a larger resource base, but remains dependent on infrastructure, technical work and conversion of resources into mineable reserves.

Atomic Eagle has identified broad interpreted uranium zones at two early-stage exploration targets in Zambia, including a 600m by 200m zone at Muntanga North Target 5. The company still needs follow-up drilling to establish whether the mineralisation is continuous and significant enough to support resource growth.
