Here is what the sector data actually looks like in 2026:

• Top-Line Gain: The 25 priority stocks average a 586% return, largely pushed by a wild 13,500% run from Group 6 Metals (G6M).

• Stripped-Back Average: Excluding G6M, the sector is still showing strong momentum with an average gain of 47.93%.

• Market Split: It’s selective stock-picking territory—10 stocks are up for the year, while 15 remain down.

Attn: ASX Gold investors

Would you attend a webinar to see 8 of the most undervalued ASX Gold mining stocks that meet most if not all of the following?

💡 Work smarter, not harder when screening junior gold developers.

Finding high-grade gold plays with real development potential, solid cash runways, and insider confidence usually requires opening dozens of tabs and endless spreadsheets.

Instead of spending a full afternoon, we used the MakCorp platform to screen the entire market in 10–15 minutes.

Here’s the high-conviction criteria we set:

High-Grade Intercepts: 20m+ @ 2g/t+ Gold

Tier-1 / Proven Regions: Australia, USA, Brazil

Advanced Stage: Production, DFS, PFS, Construction, Pre-dev

Deep Value: Under $50M Market Cap

Financial Health: $1M+ cash & 3 quarters burn remaining

Insider Confidence: $200k+ in Director buying (last 3 years)

📊 The Result: Most of the 8 ASX companies ticked every single box but only 3 met current $1m+ bank balance with at least 3 quarters burn remaining. Most had $1m or more in bank but dont have at least 3 qtrs burn remaining

We’re looking to host an exclusive live webinar where we will show you how to set up high-speed research workflows and reveal the 8 stocks that passed the test.

Why research $AUV

High-Grade Gold, Tight Capital Structure, and Proven Leadership: Inside ASX: AUV’s Gawler Craton Strategy 🪙

Auravelle Metals (ASX: AUV) is accelerating work at the Nuckulla Hill Gold Project in South Australia's world-class Gawler Craton. Sitting along the structural Yarlbrinda Shear Zone—the same regional trend hosting Barton Gold’s 1.6Moz Tunkillia deposit—AUV is building strong momentum.

Here is why AUV is turning heads:

💥 High-Grade Shallow Intercepts:
Recent RC drilling at the Sheoak Prospect has defined a +600m trend of shallow gold mineralization that remains open along strike and at depth:
• 28m @ 3.4 g/t Au from 48m (inc. 4m @ 12.7 g/t Au)
• 21m @ 3.1 g/t Au from 54m (inc. 10g/t+ peaks)
• 8m @ 2.2 g/t Au from 80m

🔬 Favorable Metallurgy:
Preliminary testwork indicates free-milling gold characteristics, pointing toward conventional, highly economic CIL recovery for future open-pit modeling.

🧠 Proven Leadership & Track Record at the Board Level:

• Andrew Muir – Managing Director & CEO: A geologist with ~30 years across exploration, project evaluation, and resource finance. Played a key role in discovering the multi-million-ounce Wallaby gold deposit at Granny Smith. Former MD of NTM Gold (led to its acquisition by Dacian Gold) and Caprice Resources, with deep equity capital markets experience (Argonaut, JP Morgan).

• Stephen Biggins – Non-Executive Chair: Geologist and mining executive with 30 years of global exploration experience. Founding MD of Core Lithium (ASX: CXO), growing it from early-stage discovery to production and a $2B market cap. Also Chair of Winsome Resources (ASX: WR1) and led the discovery of the Cannon gold mine.

• John Forwood – Non-Executive Director: Geologist and lawyer with 20+ years in resource finance and fund management. Currently Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of the ASX-listed Lowell Resources Fund.

• Craig McGown – Non-Executive Director: Investment banker with 40+ years of corporate advisory, ECM, and M&A experience in natural resources. Former director of Western Areas Limited through to its $1.3B takeover by IGO.

⚡ Capital Efficiency & Insider Alignment:
High direct-to-ground spend, lean management overheads, and strong insider alignment with director participation across recent raises.

With high-res aeromagnetics completed to refine targets across Bimba and Myall, AUV is primed for continuous news flow.

ASX Average Weekly % Gain/Loss Commodity Performance

Below is a high-level analysis of the weekly performance data across the ASX mining and resource sectors.

Overall, it was a distinctly bearish week. Out of the 23 listed categories, 21 finished in the red, signaling a broad, macro-driven sell-off across precious, industrial, and critical minerals alike.

1. The High-Volume Heavyweights (The Liquidity Drivers)When looking at where the real volume is moving, the traditional majors and major battery/precious plays took a heavy hit, but they continue to absorb the vast majority of market liquidity.

Gold & Copper: Together, these two saw massive liquidation, accounting for over 4.5 billion shares traded. Gold (-4.08%) and Copper (-3.69%) fell in tandem, suggesting broad macroeconomic headwinds (such as a strengthening USD or hawkish interest rate sentiment) rather than commodity-specific negatives.

Rare Earths & Silver: Both maintained massive liquidity but suffered similar fates. Rare Earths (-4.06% on 1.2B shares) and Silver (-5.81% on 990M shares) saw aggressive selling pressure, reflecting a tough week for both high-tech manufacturing inputs and secondary monetary assets.

2. Tech & Critical Minerals Under Severe PressureThe niche critical and defense-critical minerals—frequently tied to AI hardware and military applications—saw some of the sharpest percentage declines, indicating risk-off behavior from retail and institutional investors.

The AI & Semiconductor Hardware Group: Germanium (-7.56%) and Gallium (-5.23%) both posted steep declines. Germanium's fall is particularly sharp given its historically low-volume liquidity (only 20.9M shares traded), meaning slight shifts in sentiment trigger exaggerated price drops.

Antimony & Tungsten: Two major defense-critical metals underperformed significantly. Antimony dropped -5.85% on healthy volume (395M), while Tungsten plunged -8.96% on substantial volume (316M), pointing to institutional profit-taking or short-term sector rotation.

3. Battery Metals Bleed Out

The battery and energy transition sector showed zero signs of reprieve, continuing its volatile downward trend.

Cobalt (-10.14%): The week's worst performer by percentage. Though traded on lower volume (35.8M), the double-digit drop shows a lack of buying support.Lithium (-4.16%) & Nickel (-4.97%):

Lithium continues to see massive churning with 760 million shares traded, but could not find a floor. Nickel’s nearly 5% drop on 185M shares reflects ongoing global supply overhang challenges.

4. The Outliers (Bucking the Trend)Only two commodities managed to keep their heads above water this week.

Phosphate (+8.62%): The clear standout performer of the week. Despite relatively low volume (15.2M shares), the strong positive divergence suggests highly specific, localized project news or a sudden supply-side shock in the agricultural/fertilizer sector.

Coal (+0.71%): Practically flat, but in a week like this, minor green is a win. It acted as a defensive haven with a robust 129M shares traded, likely supported by steady short-term power generation demand.

Technical Takeaway

This data reflects a classic macro-driven "risk-off" week across the ASX. When the largest, most liquid asset classes (Gold, Copper, Rare Earths) are hit with heavy volume and uniform 3% to 6% drops, it typically points to external market pressures (e.g., currency fluctuations, broader equity market pullbacks, or global economic indicators) rather than weak sector fundamentals.

What affect could the CGT tax be having on the sector?

Lets reflect on the market data for the last 6 months and take note of the significant drop in volume

📈 ASX Resource Sector: First Half of 2026 Market Wrapped

📉What a wild, volatile ride the first six months of 2026 have been for the ASX resource sector! From explosive, bullish highs to tight consolidation, the data reveals a sector undergoing major structural shifts.

Here are the key takeaways from the data in in the visual below:

🚀 The Extreme Highs & Lows.

The year kicked off with an incredible +17.25% gain in January, followed by a strong +6.81% relief rally in April. However, aggressive market corrections in March (-15.25%) and June (-12.60%) wiped out those gains, leaving the sector down roughly -5.4% on a compounded basis for the half-year.

⚖️ The "Budget Effect" & CGT Uncertainty.

Why the sudden volume drain and aggressive mid-year sell-off? Look no further than Canberra. The federal government’s newly legislated Capital Gains Tax (CGT) changes—which completely abolish the 50% CGT discount in favor of an inflation-indexed cost base and a 30% minimum tax rate starting July 1, 2027—have sent ripples through equity markets. With transitional grandfathering rules hinging on valuations, the uncertainty is heavily influencing asset allocation and liquidity.

🔍 Market Breadth Divergence.

January saw massive market participation with 70% of stocks trading in the green (481 advanced vs. 168 declined). Conversely, March and June saw heavy capitulation, with June ending with a staggering 82% of tracked stocks finishing red.

💧 The Liquidity Drain.

We are seeing a steady, linear decline in market liquidity. Total traded volume peaked in January at 43.46 billion shares and dried up to 28.57 billion shares by June. Average company turnover similarly cooled from 7.86% to 4.80%, showing investors shifting into a defensive, "wait-and-see" holding pattern as they digest the shifting tax landscape.

🤝 Sector Consolidation is Underway.

Perhaps the most telling macro trend is the shrinking pool of companies. The number of tracked resource stocks dropped every single month, falling from 691 in January to 658 in June. This net loss of 33 companies highlights a wave of corporate consolidation, M&A activity, or tighter capital constraints forcing delistings.

The Bottom Line: While the headline volatility looks daunting, the drop in June volume suggests buyer exhaustion rather than institutional panic. As the sector consolidates and adapts to the structural reality of the new CGT regime, quality projects and tight capital management will be the keys to navigating H2.
