Emyria has secured a limited in-person speaking position at a US FDA hearing examining how psychedelic medicines could be delivered safely and at scale. The appearance gives the ASX-listed company a regulatory platform, but does not represent FDA approval, funding or a commercial agreement.

Kapstream Investment Trust will begin a 12-month on-market buy-back of its fully paid ordinary units, but has not disclosed a target quantity or dollar commitment. The responsible entity can pause or end the programme without notice.

PM Capital Global Opportunities Fund has completed a $172 million share purchase plan, with all valid applications accepted in full. About 56 million new shares will be issued at $3.07 each and qualify for PGF’s upcoming fully franked dividend.

Antares Metals has secured $2.57 million to fund maiden drilling at its Quinns project and continued exploration across Queensland and Western Australia. The raise comes with substantial potential dilution, with more than half the shares and all attaching options still requiring shareholder approval.

Kingsgate Consolidated has increased Nueva Esperanza’s Ore Reserves by 31% for silver and 37% for gold, extending the assumed reserve life beyond 12 years. The gains are largely driven by higher price assumptions and lower royalties rather than new drilling.

Cleo Diagnostics has appointed Bio-Techne’s CLIA-certified U.S. laboratory Asuragen to run pivotal clinical validation for its pre-surgical ovarian cancer test. The approximately 1,470-sample program is intended to generate the evidence supporting a planned FDA 510(k) submission in the first half of calendar 2027.

Odyssey Gold has identified a previously unmodelled high-grade gold structure west of its Cable deposit, with drilling also strengthening the emerging Argos lode. The results could expand the Tuckanarra resource envelope, although continuity and scale remain to be established.

Australian Rare Earths has moved its Koppamurra pilot plant beyond heap leaching, recovering rare earths from about 5,000 litres of leach solution into a Mixed Rare Earth Hydroxide intermediate product. The result provides an early test of the downstream flowsheet, although commercial economics and final product quality remain unproven.

Bannerman Energy has completed a fully underwritten A$124 million institutional placement, giving the Etango uranium project a funding pathway through construction and ramp-up. The company now turns to a targeted Q4 2026 Final Investment Decision, while a further non-underwritten shareholder offer could raise up to A$10 million.

Red Sky Energy has started drilling Yarrow 5 in South Australia, the second well in a three-well development program operated by Santos. The well is expected to reach 2,775 metres by 14 September, with a further re-entry planned before first gas from Yarrow North 1 is targeted for early 2027.

GrainCorp says its transformation program is on track to deliver $12 million in run-rate benefits by the end of FY26, above the top of its previous commitment. But the company has delayed a major systems rollout, expects $30-35 million of FY27 completion spend and deferred a second release.

Challenger Gold has set early 2029 as the target for commercial production from a stand-alone heap leach operation at its Hualilán project in Argentina. The roadmap brings engineering, drilling and financing into sharper focus, but still depends on a US$15 million debenture refinancing and a much larger project funding package.

Green Technology Metals has completed the environmental assessment for its Seymour Lithium Project in Ontario, removing a major step from the mine’s permitting pathway. The milestone does not yet amount to final development approval, with a mine closure plan and several permits still required.

Manuka Resources has reported several high-grade, shallow gold intersections from its Pipeline Ridge drilling campaign, led by 32 metres at 7.98 grams per tonne. The results support a maiden resource estimate, but metallurgy, true widths and resource classification remain unresolved.

Kuniko has extended the interpreted Silica Hill mineralised system by about 100 metres, with drilling encountering a broad sulphide zone and veins up to 50 centimetres thick. The key test now shifts to laboratory assays, due in four to six weeks, ahead of a planned December 2026 resource upgrade.

Australian Oil Co says Emu Apple-1 is producing 10-20 barrels of oil a day after intervention with no water cut observed so far. Stronger oil prices are prompting assessments of further well restarts, while Californian gas output and the Major-4 offtake plan advance in parallel.

Conrad Asia Energy has completed the sale of a 75% non-operated interest in the Duyung PSC, triggering a US$4 million payment from PT Nations Natuna Barat. The company says the transaction leaves it with a 22.875% operated interest and fully funds the US$320 million Mako gas development.

Livium’s insurer has settled four claims linked to the 2019 Envirostream premises fire for about A$1.765 million, with the company expecting no settlement cash outflow. Two claims remain unresolved, leaving the effect on Livium’s existing A$5.4 million provision uncertain.

Eureka Group Holdings has secured $70.7 million from institutional investors to help fund its $123.8 million acquisition of six NSW communities. The remaining $9.5 million retail offer opens against a backdrop of upgraded FY27 earnings guidance, but also higher gearing and execution risk.

Leeuwin Metals will acquire three Western Australian exploration tenements covering about 105km², including ground adjoining the Marvel Loch gold mine. The all-scrip deal requires no cash payment, but two of the licences remain applications and the exploration case is still at an early stage.

Eagers Automotive has signed a non-binding agreement to acquire a 50% interest in Zagame Automotive Group, gaining exposure to 14 premium and luxury vehicle brands across Melbourne and Adelaide. The company expects the proposed joint venture to be immediately earnings accretive, although completion remains conditional and no transaction value has been disclosed.

Optiscan Imaging has reached an 84-case milestone in its live digital pathology study with Australian Clinical Labs, testing the InForm platform across a broad range of tissue types and disease settings. The data may support future regulatory submissions and commercial discussions, but the announcement does not disclose diagnostic accuracy metrics or regulatory approval.

Golden Horse Minerals has expanded the interpreted Hopes Hill gold system beyond 3 kilometres after completing 52,762 metres of drilling in the six months to June 30. The exploration push delivered multiple high-grade intersections and free-milling metallurgy, but came with no revenue, a $4.37 million loss and a sharp drawdown in cash.

Amplitude Energy has approved completion of its Juliet-1 exploration well after preliminary testing indicated at least 49 metres of net pay, strong reservoir quality and estimated carbon dioxide below 2 mol%. The well is ahead of schedule and budget, but flow rates, gas composition and recoverable resource estimates remain outstanding.
