SXTY · Price

Executive Summary

  • All required mining equipment has been successfully mobilized to the Mon gold mine site via winter road, keeping the project on schedule and within budget.
  • The company reports no lost‑time accidents or environmental incidents and has cleared all residual camp waste from the site.
  • Preparations are underway for mill construction and start‑up of a 100 tpd design rate, with initial ore extraction planned for summer 2026 from four newly developed stopes on the second level beneath historic stopes that averaged 30 g/t Au.

Key Details

  • Equipment Mobilization: Complete set of plant, processing, and support equipment delivered to Mon mine site as planned; mobilization completed ahead of the winter road schedule.
  • Budget & Safety: Expenditures remain within budgeted amounts to date; zero lost‑time accidents and no environmental incidents reported during mobilization phase.
  • Site Clean‑up: All residual material from the burned camp, spent batteries, and miscellaneous garbage removed and disposed of at authorized facilities in Yellowknife.
  • Production Plan: Targeting a permitted 100 tpd (tonnes per day) design rate; mill construction to commence imminently with first production expected summer 2026.
  • Ore Extraction Focus: Initial extraction will target gold‑bearing vein material from four stopes on the second level, located below historic stopes that historically produced at an average grade of 30 g/t Au.
  • Further Development: Ongoing development to greater depth planned; recent underground work intersected productive A‑Zone 17 m below historic stopes and identified a new DD zone exposed in the main ramp.
  • Future Mining Areas: Plans include developing stopes in the East Limb, West Limb, and DD zone, as well as extending the ramp for deeper level access.
  • Technical Review: Technical content reviewed and approved by Dr. D.R. Webb, PGeol, PEng, President & CEO of Sixty North Gold.
