Ghana's largest gold mine reports a 31% production decline in Q3 2025. ⚠️ But this isn't operational failure. It's strategic repositioning. The Numbers Behind the Shift: Q3 2024: 213,000 ounces produced Q3 2025: 145,000 ounces produced Annual forecast: Down to 670,000 ounces What's Really Happening: The Subika open pit reached economic depletion in July 2025. Natural resource exhaustion, not operational issues. Meanwhile, the $950 million Ahafo North expansion launched in September 2025. This satellite development targets 850,000 ounces annually. 📈 Strategic Context: Modern mining prioritizes long-term value over quarterly output. The integrated complex extends operations beyond 2050. Newmont (90% owner) is balancing immediate cash flow with sustainable growth. This transition reflects broader industry trends toward selective, high-grade mining. Recovery Timeline: Q4 2025: Initial Ahafo North contributions 2026: Progressive integration phases Medium-term: 850,000 oz annual target achieved The temporary decline positions Ghana's premier operation for enhanced continental leadership. Production variability is fundamental to mining lifecycles. Patient capital deployment during transitions often precedes periods of exceptional performance. Enjoy this summary?

Strata Minerals has announced that is has exercised the option for the 100% acquisition of the Zelica Gold Project WA's Eastern Goldfields. Located between Leonora and Laverton, Zelica sits in a highly prospective area with easy access to existing infrastructure. Managing Director Peter Woods commented: “We are thrilled to have secured Zelica which is situated in one of the worlds most renowned gold-producing regions. Historical drilling at Zelica has identified high-grade near-surface oxide gold mineralisation along a 1km strike, open at both depth and along strike. With no exploration caried out in over 10 years at Zelica, Strata sees significant potential to expand upon the significant historical drilling results and target near-term resource opportunity. Strata plans to swiftly expand upon the historic exploration through infill and step-out drilling along the mineralised structure, whilst investigating the potential for parallel mineralised structures that have not previously been tested by previous owners. Zelica is situated on a granted mining licence and given record gold prices and the success of peer companies generating significant cash flow from smaller scale deposits in Western Australia, a priority for Strata is to determine the potential for near term gold extraction opportunities. With Strata’s current market capitalisation of only ~$5M we believe the addition of the Zelica Project to the existing gold portfolio has the potential to provide multiple value adding catalysts in the near term and represents a leveraged opportunity to add shareholder value as we continue to be on the look-out for other strategic opportunities in the immediate area and beyond.” Read full release - https://bit.ly/47dXjns

🪙 Kavango Confirms Open-Pit Gold Deposit at Nightshift Prospect, Zimbabwe Kavango Resources PLC LSE:KAV KAV.VX has achieved a major milestone in its Zimbabwe gold strategy with the confirmation of an open-pit gold deposit at the Nightshift Prospect, part of its Hillside Gold Project. The company’s maiden JORC-compliant Mineral Resource Estimation (JORC MRE) exceeded expectations, solidifying Kavango’s position as an emerging gold producer in Southern Africa and paving the way for scaled-up operations using modern Carbon-in-Leach processing methods. 🔑 Key Highlights • Kavango confirmed Nightshift as a gold deposit with strong upside potential, featuring high ore and ounce yields per vertical metre. • The maiden JORC MRE reports 20,000 ounces of gold at 0.86 g/t, including 11,000 oz (Indicated) and 9,000 oz (Inferred). • The deposit supports open-pit mining in the near term and potential underground mining in the future. • Nightshift spans 700 m strike length and 200 m width, with most of the strike yet untested. • Located just 800 m west of Bill’s Luck Gold Mine, where Kavango is constructing its first processing plant. • Kavango plans to upgrade the plant’s capacity from 200 tpd to 300 tpd to meet increased production potential. • Initial drilling tested only 15% of the strike length, enough to sustain a three-year mine life in Phase 1. • The company aims to begin shallow open-pit mining by H1 2026, preceded by grade control drilling. • Further exploration drilling is planned to assess deeper underground potential. • CEO Ben Turney called the discovery a “defining moment,” proving the company’s “fast-track production” strategy in Zimbabwe. 📈 Kavango is also finalizing a resource definition program at Bill’s Luck to further de-risk its 2026 mining plan, signaling rapid advancement from exploration to production within just two years. ❓ Make a comment: Could Kavango’s success at Nightshift attract more foreign investment into Zimbabwe’s mining industry? 🦁 Follow Africa Mining Community for daily updates on mining and exploration developments across Africa. #KavangoResources #Zimbabwe #ZimbabweMining #Gold #GoldExploration #GoldMining #MiningAfrica #Mining #Africa

Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (TSX, NYSE: AEM) has launched Avenir Minerals Limited, a new subsidiary to oversee nearly $80 million in early-stage critical minerals investments. The Toronto-based gold miner will also contribute $50 million in cash to fund the venture and will retain first rights to future investment opportunities. Avenir will pursue and develop critical mineral projects outside Agnico’s gold and copper operations, operating independently and targeting opportunities primarily in Canada. The company plans to seek strategic partnerships and government support to advance its portfolio. The move follows Agnico’s $180 million investment in Perpetua Resources, which is developing the Stibnite gold and antimony project in Idaho. The project aims to strengthen US domestic supply of critical minerals. The new venture comes as Agnico posted record third-quarter results, driven by strong gold prices and steady production. The miner reported net income of $1.06 billion and adjusted net income of $1.09 billion, supported by $1.82 billion in operating cash flow and $1.19 billion in free cash flow. President and CEO Ammar Al-Joundi said the results reflect consistent performance and disciplined cost management. Agnico reaffirmed its full-year gold production guidance of up to 3.5 million ounces and ended the quarter with $2.36 billion in cash. Development remains on track across key assets, including Canadian Malartic, Detour Lake, Hope Bay, and San Nicolas, as Agnico continues to expand its growth pipeline while strengthening its balance sheet.
