Gold projects are held in a 50:50 partnership with Mongolian Mining Corporation (MMC); a 5% net smelter royalty applies after 400,000 oz of gold production on existing licenses.
Retains 100% ownership of molybdenum-copper projects, including Zuun Mod and Khuvyn Khar.
Bayan Khundii production and expansion
650,000 tpa carbon-in-pulp plant built in 22 months; gold production began in September 2025 and commercial production was achieved in Q1 2026.
Q1 2026 recoveries averaged 96% versus a 93% forecast; 15,961 oz of gold and 5,769 oz of silver sold through Q1, generating US$73M in gross project revenue.
Targeting over 75,000 oz of gold annually during 2026–2030; initial six-year reserve is 513,700 oz, including Dark Horse from production year three.
Dark Horse drilling returned 42m at 7.27 g/t gold west of the pit; Ulaan's deepest hole returned 335m at over 1 g/t gold.
Khundii expansion programs aim to develop additional reserves, target 50,000–100,000 oz annual production and extend mine life toward 2040.
Portfolio growth projects
Altan Nar, 16 km north of Bayan Khundii, has 453,000 oz AuEq indicated and 277,100 oz AuEq inferred; 90% of resources are within 150m of surface.
Altan Nar exploration and resource-update work is planned, with a 75,000–100,000 oz AuEq annual production target for 2029–2040.
Zuun Mod has 439.2M lbs MoEq measured and indicated resources; a PEA targets ~20M lbs of annual molybdenum production, with an updated resource and PEA planned for mid-2026.
Khuvyn Khar drilling returned 65m at 0.63% copper, including 30m at 1.3% copper and 6.1 g/t silver; Tereg Uul drill targets are slated for testing in 2026.
