dorsaVi has secured A$3.0 million to expand its movement-data business for humanoid robotics while advancing its neuromorphic and RRAM chip programs. The raise comes as its first RRAM-CMOS validation chip moves into proprietary memory integration at TSMC.

Yugo Metals has secured six-year access to the private land covering its planned Petrovo drill sites in Bosnia and Herzegovina, paying EUR300,000 and issuing 18 million escrowed shares. An IP survey is due to begin next week, with drilling planned for the fourth quarter subject to approvals.

Aguia Resources has recorded its strongest month yet at the Santa Barbara gold project in Colombia, producing 36.75 ounces and generating AUD$218,000 in gross value. The milestone came as the company prepared to double monthly ore throughput, although production remains small and the expansion is still ahead.

Rumble Resources has delivered key dewatering equipment to Western Queen and submitted the notification needed to begin pumping, while its updated mine study moves into October. The project still depends on one major approval, financing terms and favourable feasibility results before a decision to mine.

FOS Capital has raised $276,815 through its Share Purchase Plan and shortfall placement, taking its broader capital raising to $1.83 million. A further $310,000 director subscription remains subject to shareholder approval later this month.

Vitasora says its remote-care model is now functioning, with estimated September-quarter revenue of US$1.028 million and a September exit rate of about US$17,400 a day. The next test is execution: turning planned Care Coordinator hiring into sustained, reconciled revenue and operational break-even.

Macallum New Energy has lifted the arithmetic mean prospective gas resource across its EP 494 portfolio to 2,506 PJ after new 3D seismic and reprocessed 2D data sharpened several targets. The company is now seeking a joint venture partner for up to two exploration wells targeted for the second half of 2027.

iTech Minerals has extended the main Sabre gold-antimony shoot to approximately 270 metres below surface, with drilling returning 25 metres at 4.88 g/t gold and 0.85% antimony. A second shoot has also been identified 120 metres to the south, though assays remain incomplete and true widths are yet to be established.

L1 Global Long Short Fund has launched a non-underwritten one-for-two entitlement offer at A$1.76 a share, targeting up to A$482.7 million for new investments. The raising follows a 19.4% portfolio return since L1 Capital became manager and comes with the familiar risk that shareholders who do not participate could be diluted.

Astral Resources will issue Estrella Resources 20 million shares valued at $3 million to acquire nickel rights across five tenements within the broader Mandilla development footprint. Completion is targeted for 12 October, but remains conditional on shareholder, regulatory and third-party approvals.

LGI Limited (ASX:LGI) is buying two operating Queensland solar farms for $22 million, adding 42MW of export capacity at a price below the company’s stated greenfield replacement cost. The transaction lifts LGI’s targeted medium-term renewable and dispatchable capacity pipeline beyond 120MW, although the projected earnings contribution depends on electricity prices, synergies and software integration.

Estrella Resources has agreed to divest its nickel rights across five Western Australian tenements for 20 million Astral Resources shares valued at $3 million. The deal remains conditional, but would sharpen Estrella’s focus on its Timor-Leste exploration portfolio while preserving exposure to Astral’s equity upside.

Civmec has secured more than A$220 million in new contracts and extensions, including construction of Alcoa’s Wagerup gallium plant in Western Australia. The awards are scheduled for delivery across FY27 and FY28 and lift the order book to approximately A$1.5 billion.

Activeport has secured a stage-one contract worth more than A$1 million to deploy its network orchestration software across Microscan’s 1,800-kilometre pan-India fibre network. The agreement could expand recurring licence revenue, although the timing and scale of that contribution remain undisclosed.

Eden Innovations reported a sharp acceleration in US sales during Q1 FY27, led by a 247% jump in OptiBlend revenue and expanding EdenCrete plant installations. The figures are unaudited management results, but they give the company a stronger opening quarter for the new financial year.

Wide Open Agriculture has completed a study for a proposed 10,000-tonne-per-year lupin protein facility with indicative annual revenue of A$240 million to A$295 million. The project remains unfunded, unapproved and years from production, leaving contract manufacturing as the immediate test of the company’s strategy.

Aquirian has completed its Wubin Energetics Hub upgrade within budget and is preparing Drillforce to begin work at Brightstar Resources’ Lord Byron project under a contract valued at approximately $48 million over three years. The company also says Collar Keeper sales remain strong, while a biodegradable version moves towards commercialisation.

Manhattan Gold’s first drilling at the Spectre VMS target has returned high-grade copper, gold, silver and zinc, including 6.10 metres at 3.18% copper. Mineralisation was repeated 77 metres along strike, but the early-stage results are reported as downhole lengths and do not yet establish true widths or a resource.

Sunshine Metals has extended gold mineralisation at its Sybil project in North Queensland, led by a 4-metre intersection grading 11.11g/t gold at Francis Creek. The company plans a further 2,600 metres of drilling from mid-October across existing and untested targets.

Barkly Rare Earths has reported rare earth mineralisation in 43 of 44 holes at its Northern Territory project, with high-grade intervals in 30 holes. The results strengthen the case for a larger resource, but more than 300 holes and further assays are still ahead before that potential can be tested.

Antares Metals has agreed to earn a 90% interest in the historic Enterprise gold mine in Western Australia, adding a fourth priority target to its Quinns project. The company has expanded its air core program to 2,500 metres, but the transaction remains subject to expenditure, approvals and historical-data caveats.

DevEx has recorded uranium-equivalent intersections at Nabarlek North and mapped kilometre-scale alteration along the Nabarlek Fault Corridor. The results strengthen the company’s exploration pipeline, but laboratory assays and further drilling are still needed to establish the significance of the early readings.

Great Boulder Resources has reported further shallow, high-grade gold intersections from its 40,000-metre Peak Hill drilling campaign, including 9 metres at 4.17g/t gold from just 6 metres at Enigma. Results at Enigma and Five Ways point to continuity and potential open-pit upside, although further drilling and resource updates remain ahead.

Dreadnought Resources has reported a high-grade shallow gold intercept from a new discovery at Metzke’s North, including 1 metre at 57.1 g/t gold from just 8 metres. Further diamond assays could determine whether the results are enough to expand the 24,900-ounce Metzke’s resource and support mining studies.
