Darren Hall, Chief Executive Officer of Equinox Gold commented:
“El Limon was acquired from B2Gold in Q4 2019, at a time when the Nicaraguan assets contained a combined Mineral Reserve of approximately 140,000 ounces of gold.
“Since then, through focused exploration and disciplined execution, the team has delivered more than a 700% increase in Mineral Reserves, net of production depletion across the assets, underscoring the prospectivity of the region and our ability to unlock value through discovery.
“In January 2025, we celebrated the milestone of pouring our one-millionth ounce of gold in Nicaragua since the acquisition, and year-end 2024 Nicaragua Mineral Reserves totalled 1.12 million ounces of gold grading 4.36 grams per tonne.
“These recent high-grade drilling results demonstrate the extension of gold mineralization in three areas of the property: adjacent to the operating Panteon underground mine, along the multi-kilometre VTEM Gold Corridor and along trend of the past-producing Talavera mine.
“The Company currently has an active multi-rig drill program underway and today’s results at El Limon continue to demonstrate the potential for meaningful mineral resource growth and additional new discoveries.
“Over the last five years, we have successfully permitted and brought four new satellite mines into production in the country, typically progressing from discovery to first production within 18 to 24 months.
“Given the upside potential for new satellite mines, our permitting track record, and surplus milling capacity within the hub and spoke operating platform, we believe these exploration results continue to significantly enhance the long-term value of these assets in Equinox Gold’s portfolio.”
