Westgold Resources Ltd (ASX: WGX), Resolute Mining Ltd (ASX: RSG), and Paladin Energy Ltd (ASX: PDN) shares are making waves today.

And all three of the big Aussie mining stocks are handily outperforming the 0.2% gains posted by the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) today.

Here’s what’s catching investor interest on Wednesday.

Paladin shares lift on FY 2027 uranium guidance

Paladin shares are up 4.1% at the time of writing, changing hands for $8.91 each.

This outperformance follows the release of the ASX 200 uranium stock’s June quarter update as well as FY 2027 production and cost guidance for its Langer Heinrich Mine, located in Namibia.

Following the successful ramp-up of the Langer Heinrich Mine, Paladin is forecasting full-year uranium production of 5.1 million to 5.6 million pounds (U3O8).

The miner expects to sell 4.8 million to 5.3 million pounds over FY 2027, expecting an average cost of US$44 to US$48 per pound.

Paladin noted that the average realised uranium price it receives in FY 2027 could range as low as US$51 per pound to as high as US$103 per pound, depending on market prices.

Over the June quarter, Paladin produced 1.23 million pounds of uranium, achieving an average realised price of US$70.6 per pound.

Resolute Mining shares jump on expanded gold resource

Joining Paladin shares in outperforming today, Resolute Mining shares are up 3.2%, trading for 97 cents each.

This comes after the ASX 200 gold miner announced that the Mineral Resource Estimate at its ABC Project, located in Cote d’Ivoire, has increased to 3 million ounces of contained gold, up some 36% from the 2.2 million ounces reported last year.

And Resolute Mining isn’t slowing down.

The company said it currently has seven drill rigs at ABC, which it intends to increase to eleven rigs in August, with the planned 80,000 metres drill program underway.

“Since acquiring the asset last year, we have built strong momentum through exploration with the updated MRE representing a key milestone in the project’s development pathway,” Resolute Mining CEO Chris Eger said.

Which brings us to…

Westgold Resources shares surge on production record

Like Resolute Mining and Paladin shares, Westgold shares are enjoying a strong run today, up 3.4% at $4.73 apiece.

This follows the release of the ASX 200 gold stock’s June quarterly update.

Highlights included all-time high FY 2026 production of 387,354 ounces of gold. That tops the company’s FY 2026 guidance of 345,000 ounces to 385,000 ounces of gold.

On the balance sheet, Westgold held $939 million in cash, bullion, and liquid investments as at 30 June. That’s up $575 million from the end of FY 2025.

Beetaloo Energy Ltd (ASX: BTL) shares took off on Wednesday morning after the company announced the launch of Beetaloo Digital, which will aim to play in the data centre space.

Diversifying into technology

The emerging gas producer said in a statement to the ASX that it had been granted an exclusive right to develop an 185-hectare site south of Darwin into an integrated power and data centre development.

The company added:

The land has been granted on an exclusive basis, giving Beetaloo Energy the certainty to secure consortium partners and progress pre-FEED studies. The proposed development is intended to accelerate development of Beetaloo Energy’s Beetaloo Basin gas resource, creating a significant and durable domestic market, with the remaining capacity to be underpinned by the continuous energy demand of data centre operations.

Beetaloo said the site was adjacent to the Northern Territory Government’s proposed Darwin Energy Hub, and had the potential to complement the hub’s planned large-scale solar generation and battery storage by providing firm generation capacity.

The company added that the proposal had the potential to create a significant new gas market for Beetaloo Energy, with each gigawatt of compute power requiring up to 200 terajoules per day of gas for power generation.

Beetaloo Energy Managing Director Alex Underwood said:

The NT Government’s grant of exclusivity over strategically located land at Weddell is a milestone for Beetaloo Energy and for the Northern Territory. The Weddell site gives us a strong foundation to advance discussions with potential consortium partners, scale, proximity to existing and planned infrastructure, and Beetaloo Energy’s significant gas resources. Beetaloo Digital does not propose to consume power from the Northern Territory grid, we intend to add to it. We intend to overbuild gereration capacity, providing the NT the potential to gain a reliable, large-scale baseload electricity source as a direct outcome of this development. As such, this project is aligned with the Prime Minister’s recently announced Data Centre grid mandate requirements. Darwin’s proximity to Asia-Pacific markets, its subsea cable connectivity, and the Northern Territory Government’s backing make this an infrastructure opportunity that we believe is unmatched anywhere in the region.

Mr Underwood said Beetaloo Digital would be looking for partners for its project across data centre development, power generation, and pipeline infrastructure.

ASX energy share jumps on the news

Beetaloo Energy shares jumped 16.7% on the news to 29.75 cents.

The company also recently confirmed that first gas sales from its pilot project in the NT were expected in the fourth quarter of CY26.
