Latest Working Capital News

Narryer Metals is buying the Redhill Copper Project in southern Chile from 29Metals, gaining an existing 4.3Mt inferred resource and a much larger conceptual exploration target. The deal also brings a A$1 million strategic investment from 29Metals at a 54% premium to Narryer’s pre-announcement share price.

Bounty Oil & Gas NL (ASX:BUY) is pursuing a 2,322 km² deepwater exploration block offshore Liberia, backed by a $3.55 million placement and major vendor-linked securities. The opportunity remains conditional: the block has no executed production sharing contract, no independent resource estimate and has not yet been reviewed directly by Bounty.

FFI Holdings lifted underlying pre-tax profit 6.8% to $4.62 million in FY2026, while food manufacturing delivered stronger earnings and operating cash flow rebounded sharply. The ASX-listed group now plans a $5.1 million factory and warehouse development in Cockburn, funded from existing resources.

McLaren Minerals has moved its flagship McLaren Titanium Project into bankable feasibility, backed by a 529 million tonne resource and a 663-hole drilling campaign. But the pre-revenue explorer remains reliant on further funding, with the Barossa acquisition still conditional and 118.4 million options issued after year-end.

M3 Mining reduced its FY2026 loss and more than doubled cash after a $2.25 million placement, while exploration work at Edjudina produced priority gold targets. The improvement comes with an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Anax Metals has moved its Whim Creek copper-zinc project closer to a targeted investment decision, backed by strong feasibility economics and new drilling. But the annual report makes clear that development still depends on securing further funding, with the auditor warning of a material uncertainty over going concern.

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.

AusQuest has materially expanded its Cangallo copper-gold discovery in Peru, but the exploration push came with a larger loss, a sharp rise in cash outflows and an auditor warning that further funding is likely within 12 months. The company ended FY2026 with $6.35 million in cash after a $10 million placement.

Infinity Metals has reported a sharply smaller FY2026 loss as it shifts its exploration focus towards the United States and Australia. The pivot follows rejection of its San José mining licence application, a A$2.25 million placement and a growing portfolio of early-stage copper, molybdenum and tin targets.

Future Metals has reshaped its Panton development plan around a potentially lower-capital Savannah processing route, but entered FY27 with only A$1.46 million in cash and a formal warning over future funding. A post-year-end A$3.56 million raising now funds the next study phase, including a larger updated resource base.

Flynn Gold has returned to trading with a one-for-three renounceable rights issue priced at A$0.015, seeking up to approximately A$3 million for Tasmanian exploration. Only A$1.5 million is underwritten, leaving the final proceeds dependent on shareholder participation and shortfall demand.

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%.
