Corporate presentation summary
17 Aug, 2026Strategic vision and growth plan
Aims to become a Nevada-focused, mid-tier gold producer with a target of ~600,000 oz Au/year by early 2030s, leveraging five brownfield projects and a fully funded, phased development plan.
Holds the fifth largest mineral resource base in Nevada, with 6.5Moz measured & indicated and 7.5Moz inferred gold resources, plus significant silver at Mineral Point.
Three-phase development plan advances underground and open pit projects, with production ramping from 150–200koz to 600koz+ annually.
Raised over $1B in secured and available capital, completing a recapitalization plan in Q1 2026 and retiring $165M in debt.
Nevada ranked #1 globally for mining investment attractiveness, supporting project execution and growth.
Project portfolio and operational highlights
Granite Creek Underground is in ramp-up, achieving 2025 guidance and targeting 30,000–40,000 oz Au in 2026, with feasibility study completion expected in Q3 2026.
Granite Creek Open Pit, a large, high-grade, low-CAPEX project, is in technical studies and permitting, with a 10-year mine life and ~130koz/year production target.
Archimedes Underground is under construction, with first gold expected Q4 2026 and a feasibility study by mid-2027; supports ~100koz/year at AISC $1,893/oz.
Mineral Point Open Pit, the largest oxide Au-Ag deposit in the portfolio, is advancing with a $50M royalty allocation and a major drilling campaign to support a pre-feasibility study by mid-2027.
Cove Underground is in technical studies and permitting, targeting ~100koz/year over 8 years, with feasibility study completion in Q3 2026.
Processing infrastructure and Lone Tree Plant
Lone Tree Plant refurbishment is on track for late-2027 first gold pour, with engineering studies complete and a $430M capital estimate.
Plant design supports dual POX-CIL processing, increasing payability on refractory material from 55–60% to ~92% recovery and enabling flexible, efficient operations.
Extensive trade-off studies and detailed engineering have de-risked the project, with a potential payback period of 12–24 months.
Three underground mines (Granite Creek, Archimedes, Cove) are expected to feed the plant, reducing reliance on third-party toll milling.
