Moab Minerals has secured four additional prospecting licences around its Manyoni uranium project in Tanzania, but ended September with just A$21,000 in cash. Planned testwork and 2027 drilling now depend on a conditional A$350,000 loan, further fundraising and creditor support.

White Energy has pivoted towards thermal and metallurgical coal, completed two acquisitions and raised $15 million after year end. But its FY2026 report records a $3.6 million normalised EBITDA loss, just $0.4 million in unrestricted cash and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over going concern.

NGX Limited (ASX:NGX) has secured rights to earn up to 85% in a large group of Namibian gold and copper exploration licences while raising A$3.6 million to fund the work. The transaction brings substantial exploration scale, but several licence transfers, renewals and environmental approvals remain outstanding.

Rimfire Pacific Mining’s latest Murga tests continue to show atmospheric scandium recovery, while a $2.3 million placement funds drilling and technical work across its NSW portfolio. The results remain early-stage, with projected long-term recoveries based on extrapolation rather than completed testing.

IVE Group’s FY26 revenue slipped 1.8%, but stronger margins lifted underlying pre-AASB 16 NPAT by 3.0% to A$52.5 million and supported a higher final dividend. The marketing and communications group expects underlying pre-AASB 16 profit to be broadly stable in FY27 as new capacity and acquisitions begin to contribute.

Alara Resources delivered its strongest quarterly copper sales since commercial operations began, while production remained above nameplate capacity at its Oman mine. Yet the company says the parent may need to raise about A$6 million in FY27 to cover a projected cash shortfall.

Locksley Resources is redirecting its exploration effort towards a district-scale copper-gold strategy in New South Wales, backed by A$13.383 million in cash. The company has also abandoned further investment in its Rice University antimony technology after concluding the commercial case was too uncertain.

Kuniko has completed its 2026 drilling campaign at the Commonwealth-Silica Hill project, extending the interpreted Silica Hill mineralised system by about 100 metres and securing 51% ownership ahead of schedule. The exploration progress comes with a funding constraint: the company reported A$1.43 million in cash and 1.43 quarters of available funding at September-end.

Almasar Minerals ended its first post-listing quarter with A$10.24 million in cash and a pipeline of geophysical surveys and auger drilling across its Saudi Arabian licences. The company has yet to report new exploration results, leaving execution and target quality as the next tests for the newly listed explorer.

Minerals 260 has strengthened the funding and development position of its Bullabulling gold project, reporting approximately A$600 million of pro forma cash and a definitive feasibility study still targeted for Q1 2027. The company has also completed initial grade-control drilling, expanded its mining tenure and advanced village and water infrastructure.

Aruma Resources has agreed to acquire a 90% interest in a patented mineral right at its Tillex project in Ontario, extending the interpreted copper-silver trend by 760 metres. The C$30,000 acquisition adds an untested near-term drilling target while assays from the company’s ongoing Phase 2 program remain pending.

Platina Resources has confirmed a broad, shallow gold system at Sunrise Bore, with only about 200 metres of a 1.2km mineralised trend tested so far. The ASX-listed explorer ended September with A$10.746 million in cash after completing the US$14 million sale of its Owendale scandium project.
