Status update summary
10 Sep, 2026Colombia mining environment and regulatory changes
Recent government changes have removed mining restrictions, opening previously inaccessible areas for mining and accelerating permitting processes.
Prior consultation with indigenous groups can now occur simultaneously with licensing, reducing project timelines.
Environmental and mining license applications are expected to be submitted in early H2 2027, with permitting potentially completed by H2 2028.
Project development timeline and resource growth
Construction of the exploration adit will begin in Q4 2026, with underground drilling to follow, targeting new zones like Trap.
The maiden mineral resource estimate was accelerated to capitalize on favorable market and regulatory conditions.
Production is targeted for early 2031, with additional resource updates and a PEA/PFS planned before full-scale construction.
Environmental license application and updated resource are planned for H2 2027–Q1 2028.
Apollo deposit resource details and upside
Indicated resources: 37.0 Mt at 2.17 g/t AuEq for 2.58 Moz AuEq; inferred: 48.2 Mt at 1.83 g/t AuEq for 2.83 Moz AuEq, totaling 5.41 Moz AuEq.
High-grade open pit: 22.5 Mt at 2.06 g/t AuEq indicated, 25.9 Mt at 0.86 g/t AuEq inferred, strip ratio 3.4:1.
Underground Ramp Zone: 1.29 Mt at 4.74 g/t AuEq indicated, 6.04 Mt at 5.37 g/t AuEq inferred.
Gold is ~50% of open-pit AuEq grade; copper, tungsten, and silver make up the rest.
Resource based on 114,520m drilling (265 holes), with 40,000m additional drilling since cut-off.
