Fourth quarter 2022 production update
AltynGold is pleased to announce its 4Q22 production update.
Highlights:
-- For the year to 31 December 2022, 34.023koz of gold were produced - the
highest level since operations at Sekisovskoye mine commenced -- this was
achieved as a result of a combined improvement in ore quality (average
grade 2.17g/t) and the gold recovery factor (83.3%).
-- Ore production for 4Q22 was abnormally low at 118.6kt due to extreme
weather conditions, while mined ore reached 124.1kt as the company drew
on its ore stockpile.
-- Notwithstanding, gold production remained above the eight thousand ounces
mark on significantly improved grades that reached 2.49g/t in 4Q22. This
shows the company's capacity for grade management as well as the depth of
its exploration program.
-- Revenues for the quarter were marginally down with positive gold price
dynamic mitigating reduced volumes. Revenues for the year totalled
US$61.2m (2021 us$50.3m) an increase of US$10.9m, a 22% increase in
revenues from the prior year.
-- With respect to 2023 the company is accelerating its growth plan driven
by an expanded fleet of LHDs and underground dump tracks. In anticipation,
AltynGold has been accelerating the opening of deeper horizons with the
development of transport declines #1 and #2 below +100m mark. During 4Q22
mining operations at the Sekisovskoye mine were carried out at +150m,
+134m, +117m and +100m levels.
