Ora Banda Commences Underground Mining at Waihi

High-grade potential of the Waihi Underground mine highlighted by exceptional drilling results from Golden Pole and the newly named “Midnight” Prospect.

 

.

Ora Banda Mining Limited (ASX: OBM) (“Ora Banda”, “Company”) is pleased to announce the commencement of underground mining at Waihi , together with further high -grade drill results at Golden Pole and the newly identified “Midnight” Prospect .

Highlights:

• Underground mining has commenced at Waihi, located three kilometres west of Ora
Banda’s Davyhurst processing plant
• Waihi is the third underground mine started in three years, and is one of four mines
contributing to Ora Banda’s DRIVE to 300 strategy targeting production of 300 ,000
ounces in FY29
• Waihi is considered a large and under -drilled system, with mul tiple high -grade shoots that plunge to the north , including the Golden Pole lode with a n Ore Reserve grade of 5.0 g/t
• Step out drilling ~500m south of the Waihi portal has defined another potential high -grade Prospect named Midnight (formerly “Dexy”) , with exceptional drill results including :
o 11.5m @ 26.0 g/t Inc. 8.9m @ 32.4 g/t Midnight
o 10.3m @ 3.4 g/t Inc. 0.9m @ 20.6 g/t Midnight
o 1.6m @ 65.9 g/t Inc. 1.0m @ 104.0 g/t Midnight

• A key element for Waihi Underground will be to establish drill drives allowing rapid follow up drilling on Golden Pole and Midnight, targeting both strike and depth extensions, as well as further drilling on the main Waihi line of lode
• Waihi Underground is scheduled to contribute high grade ore from mid CY2027, which will de-risk the production profile ahead of delivery of Ora Banda’s new 3.0 Mtpa processing plant in early CY2028.

Waihi is considered a large and under-drilled system with multiple high -grade shoots that plunge to the north, including the Golden Pole lode. Recent step out drilling ~500m south of the Waihi portal has discovered another potential high-grade prospect called Midnight for further near-term exploration.

Underground mining operations have now begun at Waihi with the establishment of a decline portal which is accessed through the Waihi open pit. The Waihi decline will allow access to the Golden Pole lode, as well as enabling the development of underground drill platforms, with intensive drill programs scheduled to define and expand the mineralised envelope.

Development of the Waihi underground mine is an important de-risking event for Ora Band as the Company advances construction of the new 3.0 Mtpa processing facility, with the high-grade Golden Pole material set to be preferentially treated through the existing Davyhurst Mill, offsetting the reduced processing volumes as the Company seeks to end third party processing and begins to stockpile ore ahead of the planned commissioning of the new mill during early CY2028 .

Waihi is the third underground mine to be developed by Ora Banda in three years, with the Company anticipating first ore from Waihi Underground mid-CY2027.

 

 

.
Ora Banda’s Managing Director, Luke Creagh, said:

“Once again, it’s a credit to the OBM team and business partners to rapidly identify an opportunity and turn it into a mine.

 

“We are excited to have commenced underground mining at Waihi, Ora Banda’s third underground mine and a key pillar of our DRIVE to 300 strategy .

 

“Importantly, Waihi w ill deliver high -grade ore from mid -2027 ahead of the scheduled delivery of our 3.0 Mtpa processing plant at Davyhurst.

 

“Furthermore, the newly identified Midnight Prospect adds to a growing list of high -grade underground targets at Waihi, with the establishment of underground drill platforms a key near term objective to extend and infill what is considered a large and under-drilled system .”

Ora Banda Mining Ltd (ASX: OBM) (“Ora Banda”, “Company”) is pleased to report on the financial and operating activities of the Company and its subsidiaries (“Group”) for the year ended 3 0 June 2026 – a period during which the Group generated $ 426.7 million in operating cash flows, benefitting from the Group’s second mine, Sand King Underground, reaching commercial production in January 2026.

 

FY26 Results Highlights:

• Record revenues of $ 807.5 million (FY2 5: $404.3 million )
• EBITDA increased by 134% to $ 431.1 million
• Net Profit after Tax (NPAT) increased 16% to $ 216.2 million , including a $ 97.7 million (non -cash) tax expense in the current period . FY25 N PAT of $186.1 million include d a $73.1 million net income tax benefit from the recognition of a deferred tax asset associated with carry forward losses
• Cash flow from Operations increased 124% to $426.7 million
• Closing cash of $ 267.7 million (June 202 5: $ 84.2 million ), up $ 183.5 million . Including upsized Revolving Credit Facility of $200 million (previously $50 million) provides + $468 million in liquidity
• Record gold sold of 140,641 oz (including attributable equivalent ounces) (FY25: 93,076 oz)
• Sand King Underground achieved capital payback 12 months after establishing portal
• Put options and partial collars executed during the period provide coverage over 167koz at A$6,000 exercise price from November 2026 – June 2028

 

 

 

Highlights

Total cash increased by $183.5 million in the year, despite investing +$235 million in development, infrastructure, exploration and resource development.

This investment resulted in:
• 75% & 159% increase in MRE and ORE, respectively;
• +6km capital development metres progressing Riv erina and Sand King operations; and • Critical infrastructure upgrades (Camp upgrades, Riverina Airstrip, New Mill Pre -FID).

The Group achieved record gold production of 140,949 oz (including 34.3koz attributable equivalent ounces ) representing a 53% increase on the prior year.

Increased production is attributed to the ramp up of the Company’s second underground mine, Sand King, with capital payback achieved within 12 months of the portal being established .

Due to the current mill constraints, 625kt of ore at a grade of 2.0g/t was also hauled to Norton Gold Fields Paddington Mill, resulting in 34.3koz attributable production (FY25: 19.5kt @ 2.5g/t for 1.4koz) .

Cash flow from Operations increased by 124% to $426.7 million (FY25: $190.5 million ) driven by:
1 EBITDA – earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation. EBITDA is a non IFRS measure
2 Exploration expenditure is included within operating cash flows in the Statement of Cash Flows

 

.

Ora Banda’s Managing Director, Luke Creagh, said:

“FY26 marked a step -change for Ora Banda, with the successful transition to a two -mine underground operating model driving record production, cash generation and profitability across the Group.

 

“Sand King’s rapid payback, achieved within 12 months of portal establishment and consistent with Riverina Underground’s payback in FY25, confirms the strength and repeatability of our underground mining model and gives us confidence as we build on this platform heading into FY27.

.

“Full exposure to the rising gold price, combined with disciplined operational execution, converted record production into materially stronger earnings and cash flow, leaving the Group with its strongest ever balance sheet.

 

“Importantly, the put options we have in place provide price protection out to June 2028, locking in margin certainty well into FY27 and underwriting our ability to keep investing through the cycle.

.

“This financial strength, together with a significantly expanded resource and reserve base, with increases of 75% in Mineral Resources and 159% in Ore Reserves, and more than $468 million in available liquidity, positions the Group to continue unlocking the potential of this highly prospective belt.

 

“We enter FY27 well capitalised, well -resourced and with a clear runway of growth ahead of us.”

4 Waihi underground and Round Dam open pit maiden Ore Reserve Estimate was previously announced 18 th May 2026
Annual Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve Statement as at 1 April 2026 has delivered substantial growth in Resources and Reserves across the portfolio, including the
delivery of a +1.3 Moz Mineral Resource at Round Dam, materially improving the scale, diversity and development flexibility to underpin the future at Davyhurst .

The standout contribution came from Round Dam, where successful exploration and resource definition drilling delivered a +1.3 Moz Mineral Resource and a maiden 223 Koz Ore Reserve, demonstrating the potential for rapid discovery to resource to reserve conv ersion across the Company’s tenement holding.

With demonstrated exploration success, the Company has (and continues) to invest significantly in exploration and resource definition drilling across the Project.

In FY26, the Company invested approximately $75 million in drilling activities, completing more than 310,000 metres of reverse circulation and diamond core drilling.

To date, this investment has delivered outstanding rapid growth in the Company’s resource base, with Mineral Resources increasing by 75% (1.58 Moz) to 3.69 Moz from 2.11 Moz and Ore Reserves increasing by 159% to 610 Koz, from 236 Koz (including low -grade material and stockpiles).

The Company’s commitment to resource growth remains strong, with a further 340,000 metres of drilling planned for FY27 (excluding grade control drilling), supporting continued resource conversion, reserve growth and future development opportunities.

Key focuses for this drilling programme are extensions to known mineralisation at Round Dam, Little Gem and Sand King.

“These excellent results are a credit to our geological team and highlight Ora Banda’s commitment to exploration investment, which continues to drive strong organic growth across our highly prospective tenure.

 

“This is a step -change result for Ora Banda. In less than 12 months, our drilling investment has delivered a 75% increase in Mineral Resources and a 159% increase in Ore Reserves, materially strengthening the production platform at Davyhurst..

 

“Our ability to discover new deposits, develop them into mines and keep growing them in rapid time is setting us apart and gives us a clear line of sight to our goal to become Australia’s next plus 300,000oz gold producer.

 

“We are currently working towards further additions to our mineral inventory with a maiden mineral resource estimate for Little Gem slated to be delivered in H1 FY27.”

Mining Review 7th June 2026

Mining Review 7th June 2026

Orla Mining and Equinox Gold fell on news of a blockade at Orla’s Camino Rojo mine in Mexico. The blockade has now been lifted and work resumed.

City Investors Circle Mining Review 7th June 2026

 

.

Orla Mining and Equinox Gold fell on news of a blockade at Orla’s Camino Rojo mine in Mexico. The blockade has now been lifted and work resumed.

This seems to be the result of a long running dispte between Orla and a union at the mine, which has also involved a court case over representation at the mine between two unions.

One hopes the issue will be resolved quickly as it’s now damaging both companies share prices before the business combination.

 

Pacgold has announced it is to demerge its Queensland assets, including the prospective Alice River gold project, into a new company, Manda.

The company will then focus on the White Dam gold project, where small scale production of around 500 – 600 ounces per month has started, and this will fund exploration to try and extand the resource and life of mine.

Pacgold shareholders will benefit form an in-specie distribution of 1 for 6 shares in Manda.

It would appear however that this benefit is reserved for Australia and New Zealand based shareholders, but not those in the rest of the world. I have asked the company to confirm this, but have not received a reply so far, which augurs badly, in my opinion.

I am going to sell my holding if UK shareholders are excluded from the in-specie distribution on the principle that we are being disadvantaged to the benefit of local shareholders.

Surely ALL shareholders should be treated equally?

 

+++++++

 

The American war on Iran continues to create volatility in the market, with gold moving further downwards during the constant positive and negative announcements being made by Trump and Iran.

Every sign of peace results in a higher gold price and oil falls, then another announcement reverses everything. This is a real nonsense, a US President should not be behaving like this in my opinion.

Where is the UN?

o 6.0m @ 6.7 g/t Inc. 2.9m @ 12.4 g/t Golden Pole ( 1m Re -splits)
• These results come from 22 holes completed as part of an infill and extension drill
program announced on 15 January 2026.
• In addition to the success at Golden Pole, results were also returned from the last of the
2025 drilling program across the broader Waihi Project , with highlights including:
o 1.9m @ 8.5 g/t Inc. 0.7m @ 19.2 g/t Waihi West
o 1.0m @ 32.9 g/t Waihi East

City Investors Circle Review 15th March 2026

 

 

It was another volatile week on the metals markets, with gold, silver, and most other metals falling in price.

As a result many miners are falling in value, as oil is one of the major costs of mining for most companies, and especially open pit projects. One market commentator stated that oil accounts for around 9% of the cost of gold mining.

Whilst it’s dispiriting to see the price of well performing companies falling, I’m maintaining my positions. Once the Iran turmoil is over I expect a relief rally,

it’s a question of waiting for me.

ORA BANDA DRILLING EXPANDS LITTLE GEM NEW “SAPPHIRE” TREND DISCOVERED

 

 

 

Ora Banda Mining Limited (ASX: OBM) (Ora Banda”, Company”) is pleased to provide an update on its continued exploration success at its high-grade Little Gem Prospect.

The area initially consisted of the Little Gem Prospect on the Little Gem Trend, presenting as a multi-lode system that extended from Riverina to Sunraysia as a strike of 7.5 kilometres .

The recent discovery of the Sapphire Trend, located 200m east of the Little Gem Trend, has expanded the exploration window for further drilling and potential mineralisation.

Highlights:

• Latest drilling has expanded the Little Gem Prospect’s mineralised envelope to
more than 1,500 metres of strike and 750 metres vertically below surface , with
mineralisation open in all directions.
• Exploration drilling has discovered the Sapphire Trend (200 metres east of Little
Gem Trend) which presents as a new potential lode system.
• Sapphire Trend runs parallel to the Little Gem Trend and is yet to be specifically
targeted in exploration programs, with new results pointing to the growing
significance of it s mineralisation potential
• Drilling at Sunraysia Prospect (3km south of Little Gem Prospect ) on the Little
Gem Trend has identified high-grade lode s (see Figures 3 & 4)
• Ora Banda expects to deliver a Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate on Little Gem
during second half of 2026 . Drilling remains ongoing .
• Recent significant intersections include:

Little Gem Prospect:
o 10.0m @ 6.9 g/t Inc. 2.0m @ 26.9 g/t Little Gem Trend
o 6.0m @ 11.3 g/t Inc. 1.0m @ 60.0 g/t Little Gem Trend
o 20.1m @ 2.9 g/t Inc. 0.8m @ 11.3 g/t Little Gem Trend
o 16.0m @ 3.0 g/t Inc. 1.0m @ 17.2 g/t Little Gem Trend
o 14.9m @ 3.2 g/t Inc. 0.9m @ 11.0 g/t Little Gem Trend

.
Little Gem Trend

Drilling has expanded the mineralised envelope at the Little Gem prospect to over 1,500 metres of strike and 750 metres below surface, with mineralisation continuing to remain open at depth and along strike .

Drilling at the Sunraysia Prospect (3km south of the Little Gem Prospect), along this same Little Gem Trend also highlight ed the ongoing growth potential of the broader region, with intercepts identifying high-grade mineralisation including intersections of 9.0m @ 4.1 g/t (inc. 2.0m @ 14.5 g/t) and 3.0m @ 9.3 g/t (inc. 1.0m @ 21.2 g/t). 

This drilling has added a further 800 metres of prospective strike to the Little Gem Trend with the mineralisation yet to be closed to the south.

Sapphire Trend

Step-out drilling has discovered the Sapphire Trend located 200m east of Little Gem with intersections including 18.0m @ 2.7 g/t, 10.2m @ 4.2 g/t and 11.5m @ 2.8 g/t.

The Sapphire Trend runs parallel to the Little Gem Trend and will be a targeted area for the ongoing exploration drilling programs in this region.

Both the Little Gem and Sapphire trend are broad north-south striking mineralised packages that are composed of multiple sub-parallel and sub-vertical gold lodes. The mineralisation geometry remains predictable as the drill spacing reduces and mac ro high grade plunges identified in the drill core mimic those seen at Riverina, approximately 30 degrees to the south.

With +150 drill holes now completed acros the Little Gem Prospect , drilling is continuing and the company is anticipating delivery of a Maiden Mineral Resource during the second half of calendar year 2026.

 

 

.

Ora Banda’s Managing Director, Luke Creagh, said:

“These outstanding drill results continue to confirm the scale and quality of the Little Gem system with recent gains from exploration step-outs at the Sapphire Trend and Sunraysia Prospect demonstrating the outstanding potential of this area.

“The work we’ve been doing is a reminder of the enormous organic growth potential of our ground, and as part of this, we very much look forward to delivering a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for Little Gem in the second half of CY26.”

ORA BANDA ROUND DAM MINERAL RESOURCE GROWS TENFOLD TO
1.33 MILLION OUNCES

 

 

 

Ora Banda Mining Limited (ASX: OBM) (“Ora Banda”, “Company”) is pleased to report a new Mineral Resource of 25.6Mt @ 1.6g/t for 1,330 koz at the Company’s Round Dam deposit – a 964% increase from the previous resource of 125 koz, following the first phase of an organic growth program set to continue throughout the remainder of FY26.

The 25.3Mt Round Dam Resource includes 7.1Mt at 1.8g/t for 408 koz in the Indicated category and 18.2Mt at 1.6g/t in the Inferred category.

All of the Round Dam Resource is considered suitable for open pit mining and has been calculated with open pit shells that are cash -flow positive at A$5,000/oz and using a cut -off grade of 0.3g/t.

The resource estimate includes drilling up to the end of January, noting that it remains open along strike and at depth, with follow up drilling for both resource extension and category conversion continuing.

The resource uplift at Round Dam provides a substantial boost to the Company’s total global resource position which has increased by 57% to 3.3 Moz – noting that further resource updates are planned to be released for other deposits in mid -2026.

Ora Banda has budgeted to spend $73 million on exploration in FY26 which equates to approximately 330km of drilling.

Ora Banda considers exploration along the Round Dam trend still to be at an early stage.

The 18km long north – south striking mineralised trend runs from Waihi in the north (3.5km from the Davyhurst Mill) to Salmon Gums in the south. Ora Banda began its initial phase of drilling along a 7.5km section of the trend which hosts several existing historical deposits and prospects within this exploration corridor.

Total Davyhurst MRE of 3.3Moz combines the updated Round Dam MRE of 1.3Moz with the Davyhurst MRE as stated on 12 September 2025.

The 2025 MRE for deposits other than Round Dam have not been updated for any mining depletions or additions from any additional FY26 drilling, all of which will be updated in mid -2026.

.

Highlights

Ora Banda’s targeted organic growth strategy sees group Mineral Resources
rapidly grow to 3.3 million ounces
• Drilling at Round Dam has expanded the Round Dam Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) by 964% to 25.6Mt 1.6g/t for 1,330 koz
• The 25.6Mt Round Dam MRE includes 7.2Mt at 1.8g/t for 408 koz in the Indicated category and 18.2Mt at 1.6g/t for 922 koz in the Inferred category
• All of the Round Dam Resource is considered suitable for open pit mining and has been calculated with open pit shells that are cash-flow positive at A$5,000/oz, using a cut-off grade of 0.3g/t
• Round Dam remains open along strike and at depth. Drilling for both resource extension and category conversion is ongoing
• The uplift has increased Ora Banda’s global resource position by 57% to 3.3 million ounces, noting that resource updates are planned to be released for other deposits in mid-2026.

 

 

 

.
Ora Banda s Managing Director, Luke Creagh, commented:

“This fantastic result is testimony to the expertise and hard work of our exploration and resource development team s who continue to deliver outstanding results with our $73 million FY26 exploration budget.

“There is no doubt of the scale of the Round Dam system noting there is significant potential to find more mineralization along strike and at depth, supporting our belief in the ability to deliver rapid resource upgrades through our ongoing organic growth programs.

“We are incredibly excited by the potential of Round Dam to become a substantial mining operation, as the Company continues to advance it’s study work into the construction of a standalone ~3mtpa processing facility at Davyhurst.”

Mining Review 8th March 2026

Catalyst Metals and Ora Banda Mining posted strong H1 results.

Fuerte Metals and Orla Mining advanced their development projects.

Gold stocks in my portfolio were mainly down as a result of the 2% fall in price of the gold. I am not taking any action, as Charlie Munger once said, “time in the market beats timing the market”.

In my experience that is mainly the case, over time the markets rise, and I have never been good at trying to time trades so sitting and holding is my preferred method of increasing my portfolio value.

 

+++++++

 

The price of gold fell in US dollar terms, but the UK pound price actually increased as a result of a fall in the value of the pound versus the dollar.

This highlights the store of value offered by gold to investors in a country such as the UK where the government is felt to be running the economy down, and in a way negative to growth and business entrepreneurship.

Silver and palladium took huge hits, dropping 9.95% and 12.16% respectively.

n general this was another week of precious metals volatility, despite the US and Israeli attacks on Iran continuing, and the price of oil rising fast.
