What else do investors need to know?
Ramelius continued strengthening its core Mt Magnet hub while advancing higher-value, longer-life projects. The 2026 Resources and Reserves update was underpinned by historic levels of exploration, notably at Dalgaranga, Galaxy, and the Cue deposits.
The company achieved an attractive discovery cost of A$55/oz, supporting ongoing exploration spend (A$90â110 million is budgeted for FY27). Ramelius has also set a company-wide Exploration Target of up to 1.6Moz, showing confidence in future conversion.
A detailed production and cost outlook to FY30, including guidance for FY27, is expected in September. The updated resource base provides a platform for the company’s longer-term production goal of 500,000 ounces per annum by FY30.
What’s next for Ramelius Resources?
Ramelius is targeting further organic growth via aggressive exploration, aiming to convert more resources and boost production scale. With additional open pit and underground targets identified across Mt Magnet, Dalgaranga, and Roe, exploration will remain a key focus.
Investors can look forward to updated production, cost, and exploration plans in September, which should give more visibility around FY27 guidance and Ramelius’ path towards its 500,000-ounce annual production target by 2030.
