Cosmo Metals has secured the Carters Road exploration licence in New South Wales after reconnaissance work returned 4.69% copper and 5.78g/t silver from a single selective rock-chip sample. The result offers an early exploration lead, but does not establish continuity, scale or economic significance.

Enova Mining reduced its half-year loss to $790,000, but an explicit going-concern warning puts future funding at the centre of its rare earth exploration story. The company ended June with $723,000 in cash while advancing several high-grade exploration targets across Brazil and Australia.

HiTech Group Australia has completed its acquisition of selected Hudson Global Resources assets, expanding its workforce solutions platform across five Australian jurisdictions. The deal lowers the upfront price but leaves some customer, government panel and contractor novations unfinished during the transition.

Pan African Resources has completed a definitive feasibility study for a ZAR3.68 billion Soweto tailings project with a projected 29.55% real ungeared IRR. The proposed operation could add up to 40,000 ounces of annual gold production, but financing, permits and board approval remain ahead of a targeted December 2026 investment decision.

Atlantic Lithium has reported a year of major progress at its Ewoyaa lithium project, including Ghanaian parliamentary approval of its mining lease and a proposed US$210 million takeover by Zhejiang Huayou Cobalt. But the audited accounts also flag material uncertainty over funding if the scheme does not proceed.

Kalamazoo Resources is moving Ashburton from exploration story to development proposition, backed by a positive Mt Olympus Scoping Study and extensive drilling. The next test is whether the updated resource, feasibility work and funding can turn the project’s preliminary economics into a mineable plan.

EBOS Group has confirmed a total FY2026 final distribution of NZD 0.63670588 per share, with payment due on 18 September. The update also fixes the dividend reinvestment price at NZD 20.47, a 2% discount to the relevant NZX VWAP.

Gorilla Gold Mines has lifted its reported Mineral Resource to approximately 2.0Moz of gold after a year of intensive Western Australian drilling. The gain comes with strong exploration momentum, but the company remains pre-revenue and expects to seek further funding.

Ariana Resources has re-released its Dokwe drilling update after adding JORC disclosures, leaving the underlying results unchanged. The announcement reports broad gold intercepts, eight tonnes of samples sent to China for feasibility-level metallurgical testing and further work aimed at advancing the Zimbabwe project’s DFS.

North Stawell Minerals has used a conference presentation to position Darlington and Darlington West as its leading tests of the Stawell gold model, while outlining a broader Victorian exploration pipeline. The company stresses that the drilling results and resource figures presented have been previously reported, making follow-up work rather than a fresh discovery the key investor question.

BMC Minerals has moved the Kudz Ze Kayah project through a key regulatory gateway and reported high-grade drilling beyond the current reserve, but its first full year as an ASX-listed company also exposed the funding challenge ahead. The Canadian developer ended FY2026 with US$50.3 million in cash, no revenue and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over going concern.

White Energy has completed its US metallurgical coal and Surat Basin acquisitions, backed by a $15 million placement and a leadership change that puts Nathan Tinkler in the executive chair. The transactions materially expand the company’s asset base, but the announcement provides no production forecasts or development timetable.

Paradigm Biopharmaceuticals has drawn the remaining US$2 million available in Tranche 4 of its convertible note facility, adding approximately A$2.8 million to working capital. The funding comes as its fully enrolled Phase 3 knee osteoarthritis trial advances towards interim analysis and top-line results.

Loftus Peak Global Disruption Fund delivered benchmark-beating returns in both its unhedged and hedged classes during the year ended 30 June 2026, while net assets expanded by roughly 44% to $936.7 million. The strong result came with larger distributions and higher performance-related costs, alongside the market exposure inherent in its global equity strategy.

Loftus Peak Global Disruption Fund delivered benchmark-beating returns across both its unhedged and hedged classes in the year to 30 June 2026, while net assets rose to $936.7 million. The annual report also records higher distributions and a clean audit opinion.

A2MP Investments has declared its A$0.05 per share takeover offer for Canyon Resources best and final, with the bid set to close on 21 September unless a competing proposal emerges. The offer remains conditional and will lapse if its minimum acceptance condition is not met.

Australian United Investment Company’s profit surged after its merger with Diversified United Investment, but the headline result was dominated by a one-off acquisition gain. Underlying profit rose 19.9%, while AUI expanded its portfolio to about A$3.1 billion and declared fully franked dividends totalling 28 cents per share.

Vaughan Nelson Global Equity SMID Fund delivered a sharp rise in operating profit and more than quadrupled its net assets in FY2026, helped by $31.8 million in investment gains and strong investor applications. The result also leaves the ASX-listed Class B units with greater exposure to global equity and currency movements.

Vanadium Resources has secured an oversubscribed A$1.0 million placement to advance studies, site work, offtake discussions and project financing for its planned V-Iron Plant in South Africa. The raise gives VR8 fresh development capital, but the project still depends on a scoping study, binding commercial agreements and a much larger funding package.

NuEnergy Gas has removed an OGIP and resource-density chart from its investor presentation and warned investors not to rely on the retracted information. The amended document also corrects a resource classification and adds cautionary language around undiscovered and undeveloped gas resources.

Aspire Mining has retained the Ovoot project’s 130.1 million-tonne JORC Coal Reserve while redesigning how the Mongolian mine is funded and built. The refreshed model forecasts a US$1.48 billion post-tax NPV10, but depends on debt raising, infrastructure delivery and a 12% Inferred Resource contribution to planned output.

Resolution Minerals has finished its largest-ever exploration program at the Horse Heaven project in Idaho, drilling 42 diamond holes across 12,236 metres. The work sets up a substantial run of gold, tungsten and multi-element assay results, but the completed program has not yet produced new assay data in this announcement.

Crimson Consulting has extended its A$0.73-a-share offer for Kip McGrath to 14 October and says it now has a path to control the company with just over half the register. The bidder says support and intentions represent 50.89% of shares, although part of that figure remains conditional.

CGN Resources has intersected gold at three of four targets in its maiden Christmas Well RC program, with Rocky Mountain Oyster returning the strongest result in fresh rock. The early-stage campaign supports follow-up drilling, but does not yet establish a mineral resource or confirm true widths.
