Asante Provides Financial and Operating Results for the Quarter Ended April 30, 2025
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Asante Gold Corporation (CSE:ASE | GSE:ASG | FRANKFURT:1A9 | ('Asante' or the 'Company') announces the filing of its financial statements and management's discussion and analysis ('MD&A') for the three months ended April 30, 2025 ('Q1 2026'). All dollar figures are in United States dollars unless otherwise indicated. A summary of the financial and operating results for fiscal Q1 2026 are presented in this news release. For a detailed discussion of results for the first quarter, please refer to the Management's Discussion and Analysis filed on SEDAR+ at and Asante's website at Dave Anthony, President and CEO stated, 'We are pleased to report a significant ramp up in stripping operations during the first quarter, including the highest quarterly material movement at Bibiani in more than two years. Commissioning of the sulphide treatment plant will advance through July with full operations in August. Production and cost metrics were in line with annual guidance as noted in our recent five year outlook, which envisages growth to over 500,000 ounces per year by 2028 and free cash flow generation of over $2 billion through 2029. We look forward to updating investors on our financing process, which we expect to conclude by the end of July 2025.' Quarter ended April 30, 2025 Summary Financial Results Three months ended April 30 ($000s USD) except as noted 2025 2024 Financial Results Revenue 141,982 114,311 Total comprehensive loss1 (20,038) (16,036) Adjusted EBITDA2 30,664 13,026 Operations Results Gold equivalent produced (oz) 51,912 53,379 Gold sold (oz) 48,190 53,600 Consolidated average gold price realized per ounce2 ($/oz) 2,946 2,133 AISC2 2,971 1,879 Notes:(1) Total comprehensive loss attributable to shareholders of the Company(2) Non-IFRS measure. For a description of how these measures are calculated and a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable measures specified, defined or determined under IFRS and presented in the Company's financial statements, refer to 'Non-IFRS Measures'. Asante's revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2025 was $142 million, a 24% increase from $114 million in the same period in 2024. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by higher gold prices and partially offset by a lower volume of gold sold. In the three months ended April 30, 2025, the Company realized an average gold price of $2,946 per ounce on the sale of 48,190 gold equivalent ounces, compared to $2,133 per ounce on the sale of 53,600 ounces in the same period in 2024. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended April 30, 2025 was $30,664, compared to $13,026 in the same period in 2024. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA reflects gold prices at all-time high only partially offset by a lower volume of gold sold. The Company produced 51,912 gold equivalent ounces for the three months ended April 30, 2025, compared to 53,379 gold equivalent ounces in the same period in 2024. The decrease in gold production in the three-month period ended April 30, 2025 compared to the prior year comparable period was due to lower feed grades at Bibiani. Consolidated AISC increased by 58% for the three months ended April 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to additional costs at Bibiani resulting from increased stripping in the Main Pit and lower grade ore. Additionally, higher sustaining capital expenditures at Chirano as well as lower consolidated volume of gold equivalent sold contributed to this increase. Bibiani Mine – Summary of the quarter ended April 30, 2025 Results Three months ended April 30 ($000s USD) except as noted 2025 2024 Waste mined (kt) 11,412 2,472 Ore mined (kt) 558 587 Total material mined (kt) 11,970 3,058 Strip ratio (waste:ore) 20.5 4.2 Ore processed (kt) 581 596 Grade (grams/tonne) 1.33 1.65 Gold recovery (%) 68% 65% Gold equivalent produced (oz) 17,241 19,183 Gold equivalent sold (oz) 16,708 19,363 Revenue ($ in thousands) 46,674 41,309 Average gold price realized per ounce1 2,794 2,133 AISC1 3,693 1,752 Note:(1) Non-IFRS measure. For a description of how these measures are calculated and a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable measures specified, defined or determined under IFRS and presented in the Company's financial statements, refer to 'Non-IFRS Measures'. Total material mined increased by 291.4% in the three months ended April 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended April 30, 2024. In the three months ended April 30, 2025, ore mined totaled 558,133 tonnes, a 4.8% decrease from 586,536 tonnes in the same period in 2024. The increase in total material mined in the three months ended April 30, 2025 and the decrease in ore mined in the three months ended April 30, 2025 reflects the Company's strategy to reduce the waste strip backlog associated with the expansion of the Main Pit, as well as the continued mining activities at the Russel satellite pit. Gold equivalent ounces produced in the three months ended April 30, 2025 was 17,241 compared to 19,183 in the three months ended April 30, 2024. The decrease in the three months ended April 30, 2025 was due to lower grade plant feed, impacted by draws from low-grade stockpiles whilst operations are focused on reducing the backlog of waste stripping. In addition, results were impacted by a high proportion of sulphide ore processed without the benefit of a sulphide treatment plant, which continues to limit gold recovery. AISC increased to $3,693 per ounce in the three months ended April 30, 2025, compared to $1,752 per ounce in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily due to elevated stripping requirements, lower grade ore processed, and other higher sustaining capital expenditures. Bibiani Mine – Outlook For the year ending January 31, 2026, the Company plans to execute on its growth strategy which includes: The construction, commissioning, and optimization of the sulphide treatment plant with commissioning expected to begin by the end of Q2 2026, and full operations expected to begin in Q3 2026, significantly enhancing gold recovery. Plant throughput expansions including completion of an upgraded crushing system, which has already started and progressing to plan to achieve a throughput increase from 3.0 Mt/y to 4.0 Mt/y and create a robust crushing circuit. Plant upgrades to the carbon-in-leach ('CIL') plant. Road construction connecting Bibiani to Chirano. Backup generator installation to ensure uninterrupted power to operations and reduced plant downtime. Commencement of underground mining. A definitive feasibility study has been completed, with the underground preparation program that already started targeting start of development in Q4 2026. Full production from the underground mine is planned for 2028, with an anticipated delivery of up to 2.6 Mt/year at an average in situ grade of approximately 3.0 g/t Au above the cutoff grade through 2030. Complete the advanced exploration grade control drilling program at Pamunu, Ayiseru, and Asempaneye to facilitate the development of new satellite pits in 2025, with the goal of improving oxide ore feed and maximizing plant throughput. External financing is being arranged to execute this growth strategy. The Company is currently pursuing various financing initiatives, and although there is no certainty that such financing initiatives will be completed, the Company is confident that it will be able to complete such initiatives in the near term. Subject to the availability of sufficient financing, the Company expects to successfully complete the above initiatives and produce between 155,000 and 175,000 gold ounces at Bibiani in the year ending January 31, 2026, including a significant increase in monthly production in the latter part of the fiscal year following advancement of the planned waste stripping program and completion of the sulphide treatment plant. Chirano Mine –Summary of the quarter ended April 30, 2025 Results Three months ended April 30 ($000s USD) except as noted 2025 2024 Open Pit Mining: Waste mined (kt) 1,742 2,734 Ore mined (kt) 321 612 Total material mined (kt) 2,063 3,347 Strip ratio (waste:ore) 5.4 4.5 Underground Mining: Waste mined (kt) 204 210 Ore mined (kt) 461 460 Total material mined (kt) 665 670 Ore processed (kt) 929 840 Grade (grams/tonne) 1.31 1.47 Gold recovery (%) 86% 86% Gold equivalent produced (oz) 34,671 34,196 Gold equivalent sold (oz) 31,482 34,236 Revenue ($ in thousands) 95,308 73,002 Average gold price realized per ounce1 3,027 2,132 AISC1 2,587 1,951 Note:(1) Non-IFRS measure. For a description of how these measures are calculated and a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable measures specified, defined or determined under IFRS and presented in the Company's financial statements, refer to 'Non-IFRS Measures'. Ore mined from open pit mining decreased by 47.6% in the three months ended April 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Ore mined decreased in the three months ended April 30, 2025, due to decreased ore mining activity as a result of a focus on stripping activities at the Mamnao central, and Aboduabo open pits. Ore mined from underground mining was relatively constant in the three months ended April 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. Obra, Suraw and Akwaaba were the contributors of underground material in the three months ended April 30, 2025 whilst development started at Akoti Far South to establish another stopping area, improving flexibility. Ore processed increased by 10.6% in the three months ended April 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The increase was mainly due to greater power availability and realised benefits from plant throughput improvement project initiatives. In the three months ended April 30, 2025, ore grade processed decreased to 1.31 grams per tonne (2024 - 1.47 grams per tonne) due to proportionally more plant feed from low grade stockpiles rehandled in 2025 as opposed to open pit ore in the comparable period. The increased in ore processed, offset by lower ore grades, resulted in marginal increased gold equivalent ounces produced of 34,671 ounces in the three months ended April 30, 2025 compared to 34,196 ounces in the three months ended April 30, 2024. AISC increased to $2,587 per ounce in the three months ended April 30, 2025 compared to $1,951 per ounce in the same period of 2024. This increase was primarily driven by higher sustaining capital expenditures and higher indirect costs associated with production as well as lower volume of gold equivalent sold. Chirano Mine – Outlook For the year ending January 31, 2026, the Company plans to execute on its growth strategy which includes: Execution of process plant projects as planned to improve performance and increase the annual mine production rate to 4Mt/annum. This includes vibrating screen for primary jaw crusher installation, run-of-mine bin refurbishment, apron feeder upgrade, cyclone feed hopper upgrade, carbon regeneration kilns upgrade, mill 2 feed end and half shell replacement, installation of 12-ton acid wash and elution columns, installation of thermic oil heaters, water storage facility construction, TSF1 SE stage 2 raise and TSF3 construction. Underground development of the Akwaaba, Tano and Akoti far south mines to ensure robust underground ore delivery. Development of exploration drifts towards the north to explore and target the reclassification of the resource at Sariehu and Mamnao underground mines and to reaffirm the north mine concept of existing continuity between Obra and Sariehu underground deposits. Start of Aboduabo open pit oxide mining. Ongoing underground exploration projects at the Suraw, Obra and open pit mine life extension projects at the Sariehu/Mamnao area are progressing as planned. The Company expects to produce between 155,000 and 175,000 gold ounces at Chirano for the year ending January 31, 2026.

Japan trade negotiator Akazawa says he made progress in U.S. tariff talks
Japan had made some progress in a fifth round of trade talks with U.S. officials aimed at ending tariffs that are hurting Japan's economy, Tokyo's chief tariff negotiator said. "Tariffs have already been imposed on autos, auto parts, steel and aluminum, and some of them have doubled to 50% along with 10% general tariff. These are causing daily losses to Japan's economy," Ryosei Akazawa, said in Washington on Friday after talks with officials, including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. Akazawa declined to say what progress they had made. The latest round of talks may be the last in-person meeting between senior Japanese and U.S. officials before the Group of Seven (G7) leaders summit that starts on June 15, where U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to meet Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba. Japan also faces a 24% tariff rate starting in July unless it can negotiate a deal with Washington. "We want an agreement as soon as possible. The G7 summit is on our radar, and if our leaders meet, we want to show what progress has been made," Akazawa said. "Still we must balance urgency with a need to guard our national interests," he added. Last month Japan's trade negotiator said U.S. defence equipment purchases, shipbuilding technology collaboration, a revision of automobile import standards and an increase in agricultural imports could be bargaining chips in tariff talks. In a bid to reach an agreement with the U.S., Japan is also proposing a mechanism to reduce the auto tariff rate based on how much countries contribute to the U.S. auto industry, the Asahi newspaper reported on Friday. Akazawa said Japan's position has not changed and that the tariffs are not acceptable.

Trump's trade talk delegation is set to face off with China's negotiators in London. Here is what's at stake.
Top Trump officials are meeting Chinese negotiators in London on Monday. This would be the first official US-China talk since a temporary tariff truce on May 12. International trade experts have said that Trump could be under pressure to strike a deal. Three top Trump administration economic officials will face off against Chinese negotiators in a renewed effort to break the US-China trade deadlock. Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent, Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer will be meeting China's delegation in London on Monday. "The meeting should go very well," President Donald Trump wrote in a social media post announcing the talks. This coming meeting will be the first official talk between the two countries since they mutually lowered tariffs in a temporary truce on May 12, after talks in Geneva. The renewed talks follow a 90-minute phone call between Trump and China's leader Xi Jinping on Thursday, a rare direct conversation that Trump later described as "very good." According to Trump, the two leaders also agreed to visit each other in person, without providing more details in terms of a timeline. The Chinese Embassy of Washington did not respond to a request for who would be attending this negotiation from its side. The team they sent to Geneva consisted of Vice Premier He Lifeng, Vice Commerce Minister Li Chenggang, and Vice Finance Minister Liao Min. Notably, Li has a Master of Laws from the University of Hamburg in Germany and has been part of China's delegation to the World Trade Organization since 2021. International trade experts previously told Business Insider that much is at stake for both China and the US to strike a deal, or at the very least, continue the truce beyond August 12 when the 90-day tariff pause will expire. "The Trump administration made their job harder because the tariff policies they've implemented are costly to Americans and American companies, and therefore, the market doesn't like it," said Philip Luck, director of the CSIS Economics Program. "They are under a lot of pressure to do things fast." Meanwhile, a lawsuit that threatens to undo all of Trump's tariffs enacted under the IEEPA also looms over negotiations with China. Drew DeLong, lead in geopolitical dynamics practice at Kearney, a global strategy and management consulting firm, told BI that if the court strikes down tariffs before trade deals could come to pass, other routes of imposing tariffs could be more complicated and time-consuming. The White House did not provide Business Insider with any additional comment beyond Trump's Truth Social post. Read the original article on Business Insider
