Broken Hill Gold has recast itself from explorer to South Australian gold operator, producing its first doré while uncovering a deeper gold-copper sulphide system at White Dam. The transformation came with a $14.46 million FY2026 loss and continuing reliance on capital markets.

Buxton Resources has returned to profit after selling its 49% Copper Wolf joint venture interest to IGO for A$5.91 million. The transaction lifted cash and term deposit investments to A$7.39 million, but the explorer remains dependent on capital and future discoveries rather than recurring earnings.

Tasman Resources has swung to a $16.5 million FY2026 profit after booking a $19.48 million gain when Eden Innovations ceased to be controlled. The explorer also ended the year with $5.65 million in cash and no borrowings, but its next test is geological rather than accounting: drilling at Titan West and Parkinson Dam.

Somerset Minerals reported a $2.17 million statutory profit for 2026, but the result was driven mainly by a gain on divesting its Blackdome-Elizabeth subsidiaries rather than recurring operations. The company’s Coppermine copper campaign delivered strong Jura and Talisker drilling results while its auditor warned that further funding is needed to sustain exploration.

Piche Resources has identified a broad gold-silver system at Toro Hosco in Argentina after completing its maiden 5,911-metre drilling campaign. The exploration progress came alongside a $5.27 million annual loss, $5.22 million operating cash outflow and reliance on post-year-end equity funding.

Manuka Resources has moved its Wonawinta and Mt Boppy restart from planning towards production, but its FY26 annual report carries a qualified audit opinion and warns of material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company recorded no sales revenue, a $28.1 million loss and $26.1 million of operating cash outflows.

Indiana Resources has finished FY2026 with A$30.1 million in cash and term deposits, promising exploration results in South Australia and an unresolved dispute over 18% of its Tanzania settlement proceeds. The company is also preparing for Managing Director and CEO Matthew Bowles to leave in November.

QMines has moved its Mt Chalmers copper-gold project into a Definitive Feasibility Study after securing a $15 million strategic package from QIC. The development push comes alongside a larger annual loss, $9.21 million in operating cash outflow and continued reliance on future funding.

Noronex Limited (ASX:NRX) swung to a A$1.145 million statutory profit in FY2026, but the result was driven mainly by tenement disposal gains while operating cash outflows increased sharply. The auditor also highlighted material uncertainty over the explorer’s ability to continue without further funding.

Gateway Mining has reported a year of aggressive expansion across Western Australia, led by new gold discoveries at Yandal and a sharp increase in exploration spending. The company remains loss-making and pre-revenue, but entered the new financial year with a larger funding base after a further $45 million placement.

West Coast Silver has crossed from explorer to resource-stage company after defining 2.795 million ounces of contained silver at Elizabeth Hill. The project has generated strong drilling results and fresh funding, but the company remains loss-making and yet to establish an economic development case.

SQX Resources Limited (ASX:SQX) has emerged from a transformational year with two advanced US gold projects, broad shallow mineralisation at Red Bird and exceptional underground assays at Williams. The exploration gains came alongside a $1.83 million loss, falling cash and a further $2.47 million capital raising completed after year-end.
