Legacy Minerals has identified three untested induced polarisation targets at its Rockley project in NSW, led by an 800m zone with chargeability of up to 45mV/V. The priority target sits beneath surface copper, gold and silver anomalies, but drilling remains under consideration rather than committed.

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.

Advance Metals has recorded its strongest silver assay yet at the Gavilanes Project in Mexico, with drilling also returning the project’s highest-grade zinc-lead interval. The mineralised system remains open at depth and to the southwest, while metallurgical work and further drilling target a maiden JORC resource in the December quarter of 2026.

Catalina Resources has executed the mining lease transfer for its Nelson Bay River project, paving the way for up to $1.29 million in rehabilitation security to be recovered. The company plans to redirect the capital into November drilling at its Kirkalocka gold and Tallering tungsten projects, subject to final heritage clearance and regulatory steps.

Novo Resources is positioning a A$8 million cash balance and A$37.54 million investment portfolio behind a broad Australian gold, copper and polymetallic exploration push. The strategy brings several drilling catalysts, but also a A$10 million deferred payment due in December and a heavy reliance on future exploration success.

West Coast Silver has added a 70%-owned prospect immediately west of its Elizabeth Hill silver mine, with historical results pointing to silver, copper, nickel and palladium potential. The targets remain early-stage: the company plans data review, fieldwork and geophysics before deciding whether to drill.

Capstone Copper will sell its Cozamin copper-silver-zinc-lead mine in Mexico to Luca Mining for up to US$385 million, including US$275 million in upfront cash. The proposed divestment is designed to strengthen Capstone’s balance sheet and redirect capital towards its growth pipeline.

SQX Resources has raised $2.468 million before costs through a fully underwritten entitlement offer, with most new shares to be issued to the underwriter and sub-underwriters. The capital will fund exploration across its US and Queensland projects, but the deal will also expand the share count by almost 37.5%.

Silver Mines is seeking A$70 million from investors while agreeing to spend A$26 million to remove two private royalties from its Bowdens Silver Project. The strategy could simplify Bowdens’ economics, but the royalty deals depend on securing at least A$50 million in placement commitments and meeting approval conditions.

Fitzroy River has agreed to sell its long-held Bowdens Silver royalty to Silver Mines for A$17.5 million, including A$7.5 million in Silver Mines shares. The company intends to return the net proceeds to shareholders, but completion remains conditional on funding and regulatory steps.

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.
