Disclosed rounds in Western Australia are led by Vulcan Energy Resources’ $1.4B round on 2025-12-02, which dwarfs every other disclosed amount; the next-largest is DEVELOP at $350M (2026-06-10), and only one other company sits above $50M (Lindian Resources at $69M on 2026-04-01). The list is also time-clustered: 2026 entries run from 2026-01-07 (Meteoric Resources, $50M) through the most recent 2026-07-10 (Gridcog, $9M), and the top $30M+ deals largely concentrate in June to early June (e.g., Fenix Resources $44M on 2026-06-22; St George Mining $42M on 2026-06-17; Waratah Minerals $35M on 2026-05-07; Peninsula Energy $30M on 2026-05-14). Geographically, Perth appears most often (37) with Subiaco (5) and Nedlands (3), suggesting a Perth-centered funding address pattern, while sector coverage skews toward Natural Resources and Energy alongside smaller pockets such as Biotechnology and Health Care.
