Sentinel Metals has secured a seven-year option to buy out a legacy 1% royalty over claims hosting roughly 500,000 ounces of Columbia’s current resource. The deal caps the purchase price at 500 ounces of gold while limiting near-term payments to 5 ounces a year.

Maronan Metals has intersected repeated copper-gold zones north of its 2025 Indicated resource at the Maronan Project, including a 20-metre interval grading 0.83% copper and 0.42g/t gold. The results support ongoing resource growth work, but further drilling and assays are needed before any resource change can be established.

Marimaca Copper has reported a 216-metre sulphide intersection grading 0.96% copper and 7.2g/t silver at Pampa Medina, including 62 metres at 2.20% copper and 21.5g/t silver. Step-out drilling also extended mineralised horizons beyond the central zone, while diamond drilling is now testing deeper ground to the north and northwest.

DPM Metals has extended mineralization beyond the existing Dumitru Potok resource in Serbia, led by a 21-metre interval grading 5.44% copper equivalent. The company will add up to 15,000 metres to its 2026 drilling campaign as it works towards a resource update and preliminary economic assessment.

Australian Critical Minerals says one extended drill hole at its Flint project in Peru has strengthened the case for a near-surface epithermal system and a deeper concealed porphyry target. The interpretation remains conceptual, with no economic-grade intersections or mineral resource reported.

Nelson Resources has lodged a Notice of Intent to collect up to 1,000 short tons of remnant mineralised material from the Orleans Mine in Nevada for bulk-scale metallurgical testing. The program could test whether laboratory recovery results translate to commercial-mill conditions, but remains subject to approval, bonding and the appointment of a third-party mill.

Olympio Metals has begun field exploration across its Jacknife and Raven silver projects in the United States, with drilling at Jacknife expected to start imminently. A replacement announcement also strengthens the company’s description of a historical foreign estimate, while making clear that the estimate remains non-JORC and requires fresh verification.

Polymetals Resources moved its Endeavor silver-zinc-lead mine from restart to commercial production in FY2026, generating A$100.0 million in revenue. The milestone came alongside a A$47.0 million loss, negative operating cash flow and an auditor warning over going-concern uncertainty.

Ballymore Resources has reported its strongest Torpy’s intersection yet, with shallow drilling returning 580.4g/t silver, 25.88% lead, 10.08% zinc and 8.7g/t indium over 2 metres. The result extends mineralisation 40 metres up-dip and supports the company’s emerging high-grade shoot model, although the project remains at the exploration stage.

Kingston Resources says infill drilling at Jack’s Hut has confirmed the location and continuity of polymetallic mineralisation targeted for potential underground mining at Mineral Hill. The results will feed into a resource update, while surface drilling in October will test extensions beyond the current resource.

Titan Minerals has extended high-grade gold-silver mineralisation at its Dynasty project in Ecuador and reported broad infill results that could support resource classification upgrades. The company is adding drilling capacity ahead of a Mineral Resource Estimate and Scoping Study targeted for the first quarter of 2027.

Barton Gold has secured approval for the environmental scope governing development studies at its Tunkillia gold and silver project in South Australia. The milestone moves the project towards a Mining Lease application, with updated resources, Ore Reserves and a pre-feasibility study targeted for the first quarter of 2027.
