AFM · Price

Executive Summary

  • Q3 2025 tin production rose 26% to 5,190 t, meeting the quarterly target of 5,000 t and driving FY‑2025 production guidance up to 18,000‑18,500 t (previously 17,500 t).
  • EBITDA guidance for Q3 2025 increased 28% to US$96 m versus actual US$75 m in Q2 2025, supported by higher tonnage and a modest price uplift.
  • Significant drill intercepts were returned from Mpama North (up to 41.47 % Sn over 10.1 m) and Mpama South (up to 4.67 % Sn over 1.81 m), expanding the resource potential near existing deposits.
