Year to Date 2022 Highlights (“YTD 2022”)

  • Galaxy produced 4,465 tonnes of concentrate containing 5,489 ounces of gold (YTD 2021 - 3,126 tonnes of concentrate containing 3,236 ounces of gold).

Galane Gold CEO, Nick Brodie commented: “Q2 2022 commenced with disruption to the Company’s revenue cycle caused by the severe flooding in Durban, despite this the Galaxy operation continued to generate positive operating cash flow during the quarter. Post quarter end, shipments of the flood-affected gold concentrate have recommenced from Durban, and it is expected that all the flood-affected gold concentrate will be fully paid during Q4 2022.(2)

The sale of Mupane has recharged our balance sheet with the removal of over $17 million in liabilities and, as a result at the end of Q2 2022, the Company had net debt of less than $1 million. Consequently, post quarter end, the Company was able to finalise a new revolving finance facility for Galaxy to enable continued investment to support the ramp-up of production.(2)
