Recharge Metals ended FY2026 with $5.61 million in cash after a $5.97 million capital raise and the acquisition of the Sunset Well gold project. The explorer now faces a sharper test: whether drilling can turn Prospero’s 94,500-ounce inferred resource and its broader exploration portfolio into something more substantial.

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.

Zenith Minerals more than doubled its flagship Dulcie gold resource to 675,000 ounces in FY26, but the company’s next chapter is now tied to Forrestania Resources’ conditional takeover offer. The annual report also details Takeovers Panel intervention, ongoing drilling and a cash balance of $4.23 million.

Middle Island Resources has outlined a much larger Serbian exploration portfolio after acquiring Konstantin Resources, with Bobija emerging as a broad shallow gold-silver polymetallic system. But the ASX explorer also reported a $3.35 million loss, $2.39 million in cash and an auditor-flagged material uncertainty over its ability to continue without further capital.

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.

Killi Resources has emerged from FY2026 with $14.68 million in cash and a far larger strategic ambition, centred on its proposed 80% acquisition of the Lodestone Iron Ore Project. The company remains loss-making and the transaction was still conditional at year-end, but a 20,000-metre drilling campaign is now targeting rapid resource growth.

Rumble Resources has moved Western Queen closer to a potential 2027 gold start, pairing a larger resource with third-party processing access and A$10 million in royalty funding. The project remains pre-production, however, with approvals, financing, feasibility work and a final investment decision still outstanding.

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.

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.

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.

Hawthorn Resources reported a wider Australian-dollar loss for FY2026, with revenue falling sharply and cash declining by $1.53 million. The company is directing its remaining balance sheet toward exploration at the Trouser Legs gold joint venture and Mount Bevan’s other minerals project.
