Initial doré production is expected in February 2026, subject to performance verification. Construction of the Cu circuits is underway, with full commissioning expected early in Q3 FY2026. Processing of oxide stockpiles is scheduled to begin thereafter, ramping up through Q3 with full capacity targeted for Q4 FY2026.

Gold: 98,740 oz total (FY2026–FY2029) at 92.8% recovery.
Silver: 1.87 million oz total at 76.2% recovery.
Copper: 56.8 million lbs total at 77% recovery.

These estimates are indicative only and subject to commissioning progress, plant performance, and equipment reliability.
