Resolution Capital Global Listed Infrastructure Fund (ASX:RII) delivered double-digit returns across all major unit classes in the year to 30 June 2026, beating its benchmarks by a wide margin. Net assets more than doubled to $424.7 million as profit rose to $56.0 million and investor distributions reached $25.7 million.

Tanami Gold has entered FY27 with funding in place for a 3,500-metre underground decline at Groundrush, after raising $70.5 million and reporting a 2.8 million ounce Central Tanami resource. The project remains in the study and resource-definition phase, with no Ore Reserve or production decision yet disclosed.

Plato Global Shares Income Fund delivered a 19.89% net return for the year, beating its global benchmark by 4.94 percentage points, while net assets climbed to A$340.0 million. The fund also launched its ASX-listed PGI2 access product as distributions and investor applications expanded sharply.

Resolution Capital Global Property Securities Fund (ASX:RCAP) delivered an 18% net return for A Class units in the year to 30 June 2026, beating its hedged benchmark by 3.7 percentage points. Profit attributable to unitholders surged to $642.9 million as listed property securities generated substantial valuation gains.

Plato Global Alpha Fund delivered a 26.7% net return for the year ended 30 June 2026, beating its global equity benchmark by 11.9 percentage points. Net assets climbed almost sixfold to $4.75 billion, driven by investment gains and substantial new applications, although the fund’s short positions and currency exposures remain material risks.

DeSoto Resources has assembled about 1,300 square kilometres of gold tenure in Guinea’s Siguiri Basin, but the expansion came with a A$15.0 million FY2026 loss and a A$6.35 million write-off of Northern Territory exploration assets. The company enters FY2027 with drilling, geophysics and tenure renewals still to convert its large portfolio into a defined resource.

Michael Hill International has returned to profit growth and restored its dividend after a year of sharper execution, brand simplification and stronger cash generation. Record revenue and a 57% rise in comparable EBIT mark a meaningful recovery, although the reset remains unfinished.

Biome Australia Limited (ASX:BIO) delivered its second consecutive profitable year in FY26, with revenue rising 30% to $23.9 million and operating cash flow turning positive. But the headline $3.6 million profit includes a $2.4 million deferred tax benefit, leaving FY27 execution as the real test of the company’s growth plan.

Latrobe Magnesium has secured A$8.5 million in equity funding to complete its Latrobe Valley demonstration plant and advance a proposed South Carolina magnesium project. The raising gives the company near-term funding certainty, but also brings further dilution and leaves the larger US development dependent on future capital.

Bendigo and Adelaide Bank has confirmed a $10.31 reinvestment price for its 33-cent fully franked dividend, payable on 30 September. The update does not change the dividend amount, but fixes the price at which participating shareholders will receive additional shares.

Power Minerals has outlined a maiden conceptual Exploration Target of 9.2 million to 10.7 million tonnes at Morro do Ferro in Brazil, grading 7.8% to 9.2% TREO. The result gives the ongoing drilling program a clearer target, but 43% of the upper estimate comes from an untested projected extension and nine recent holes remain unassayed.

Solstice Minerals has emerged from FY2026 with a larger exploration story, a A$45.3 million liquidity base and drilling that extends Nanadie beyond its existing resource footprint. The company remains loss-making and pre-production, leaving future value tied to resource growth and exploration execution.

Kincora Copper says 2026 drilling has identified multiple porphyry-style intrusive complexes across its Nevertire and Nevertire South licences, expanding the interpreted prospective strike beyond 40 kilometres. The results remain early-stage, but AngloGold Ashanti’s potential A$100 million earn-in gives the exploration program meaningful financial backing.

Historical work has identified widespread near-surface columbo-tantalite mineralisation at Australasian Metals’ Atex project in Côte d’Ivoire, adding a potential tantalum stream to its lithium strategy. The results are encouraging, but the underlying estimate is non-JORC, unverified and based on incomplete historical records.

European Lithium has dispatched the scheme booklet for its proposed merger with NASDAQ-listed Critical Metals Corp., putting shareholders and optionholders on the path to votes on 22 October. The transaction remains conditional on securityholder, Court and regulatory approvals, with implementation targeted for 5 November.

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.

Bass Oil’s Bunian 6 well has confirmed oil in a previously unproduced zone, with the company targeting a potential threefold increase in Tangai-Sukananti field production. August sales also improved as Cooper Basin exports resumed, while Vanessa and Kiwi advanced toward future gas development.

GBM Resources has returned a broad 101-metre gold intersection at 2.63g/t from Lone Sister, with higher-grade intervals pointing to potential local grade uplift at Twin Hills. A further 8,400 metres of assays remain pending before the planned December-quarter resource update.

AngloGold Ashanti has exercised early an option to acquire specified Lake Carey tenements from Matsa Resources for a fixed A$55 million, although most of the consideration remains conditional. The deal arrives as Matsa refinances existing debt, manages an operational review and remains suspended from trading.

Cadence Opportunities Fund has raised $5.7 million through a strongly supported share purchase plan and placement, increasing the company’s net tangible assets by 17%. The new shares will also qualify for upcoming fully franked dividends.

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.

Emerald Resources-backed Manda Resources has completed a suite of North Queensland asset acquisitions, lifting its combined global JORC gold resource to 1.33Moz. The vehicle has started drilling and appointed experienced explorer Tara French as CEO ahead of a proposed ASX listing later in 2026.

Avira Resources is remobilising its RC rig to resume a 4,500-metre drilling program at Mt Cattlin, with first-pass holes planned at the historically high-grade Sirdar and Ellendale prospects. The next phase follows strong results from Maori Queen and Plantagenet, but the key test will be whether historical grades translate into repeatable mineralisation under Avira’s drilling.

AML3D will contribute about A$530,000 to a three-year, A$3.89 million research project aimed at qualifying its Wire-Arc Additive Manufacturing technology for aerospace tooling. The project carries no immediate revenue, but could open the door to future production contracts if qualification succeeds.
