SOMA ANNOUNCES Q1 2023 GOLD PRODUCTION OF 6,796 AuEq OUNCES

 

 

 

 

 

Increase of 32.6 % over same period last year

 

Soma Gold Corp. (TSX-V: SOMA) (WKN: A2P4DU) (OTC: SMAGF) is pleased to announce that gold production in Q1 2023, at its 100% owned El Bagre, Colombia, gold mine, was 6,796 AuEq ounces. Production was 99.2% of forecast despite a seven-day interruption during the General Strike in the el Bagre region. Gold production was also 32.6% ahead of the same period last year. Full-year forecast production for 2023 remains unchanged at 35,500 AuEq ounces.

 

Javier Cordova, President and CEO, states, “The civil unrest in Antioquia that disrupted  operations at the Company’s Cordero Mine and the el Bagre milling complex was a result of the Government’s efforts to curtail illegal alluvial mining in the regional river systems. Our relationship with the community remains strong, and our operations were temporarily halted only to ensure our employees’ safety. Despite the lost week of production and the associated ramp-up period when production re-started, the team has made great strides in increasing production in accordance with our 2023 operating plan.”

 

The Company also announces the addition of Jean-Francois Meilleur as Vice President – Capital Markets. Mr. Meilleur will be responsible for leveraging the operational and financial successes of the Company to facilitate further organic and inorganic growth.
