Investor presentation summary
15 May, 2026Growth strategy and production expansion
Targeting rapid growth to 500 koz AuEq per year, with Stage 3 expansion to 300 koz AuEq and Stage 4 to over 400 koz AuEq by late 2027, both at industry-leading low costs.
Stage 3 process plant (1.2 mtpa) commissioned under budget in October 2025, with first saleable production and full commissioning completed by December 2025.
2026 production guidance is 190,000–225,000 oz AuEq at AISC of $1,250–$1,350/oz Au, with exploration budget of $31–35 million, potentially increasing to $40 million.
Major infrastructure upgrades include twin incline, ore pass system, ventilation, and power plant expansions to support higher throughput and operational efficiency.
Fully funded for growth, with $287 million cash, $45 million debt, and up to $60 million additional liquidity as of March 31, 2026.
Resource growth and exploration
Large, high-grade resource base with 8.1 Moz AuEq measured & indicated and 16.5 Moz AuEq inferred across Kora, Judd, and Blue Lake deposits.
Systematic exploration has driven a 776% resource growth since 2017, with discovery costs under $7.5/oz AuEq.
Blue Lake porphyry project hosts a 14.6 Moz AuEq inferred resource, with grade tenor increasing at depth and open for expansion.
Multiple high-priority near-mine and regional targets, including Arakompa, Maniape, and Wera, with maiden resource at Arakompa targeted for H1 2026.
Airborne geophysics has identified extensive untested strike potential and new vein/porphyry targets across the 830 km² land package.
Operational performance and cost profile
Among the highest-grade, lowest-cost gold mines globally, with reserve grades of 8.5–10.3 g/t Au and 2026 AISC guidance at $1,250–$1,350/oz Au.
Consistent operational performance with strong recoveries (gold and copper >94%) and record quarterly production in Q1 2026.
Major underground fleet upgrades and expansion underway to support increased mining rates and efficiency.
Three mining fronts operational by Q3 2026, improving flexibility and throughput.
Pastefill plant commissioning in Q4 2026 will enable further mining flexibility and reduce surface tailings footprint.
