Chelopech produced approximately 37,400 ounces of gold and 5.9 million pounds of copper during the first quarter, in line with the mine plan. With gold and copper grades expected to increase in the second quarter, Chelopech is on-track to achieve its production guidance for 2025.

As previously disclosed in February 2025, gold production at Ada Tepe is forecast to be approximately 50% lower in the first half of 2025 as compared to the second half of the year due to the cell sequencing of its integrated mine waste facility. Ada Tepe is on track to achieve its gold production guidance for the year.
