Strategic Initiatives
Growth programs, investments, and their expected impact
Expanding and upgrading the processing facility at the Buckreef Gold Project to a combined throughput of 3,500+ tonnes per day (tpd). The expansion integrates a new 3,500+ tpd SAG/Ball mill circuit with upgrades to the existing 2,000 tpd facility, allowing for higher throughput and improved metallurgical recoveries (89%-92% achieved in test work).
Expected impact: Expected to produce average annual gold production in excess of the 62,000 ounces originally projected in the May 2025 PEA.
Revising the strategic mine plan to potentially extend open-pit operations and defer the transition to underground mining.
Expected impact: Aims to optimize capital allocation, preserve capital, and maximize near-term cash flow from lower-risk open-pit operations.
