Anthea Bath, President and CEO of Wesdome, commented, “The second quarter marked a milestone for Wesdome, delivering the highest consolidated quarterly production output to date.

 

At Kiena, production nearly tripled compared to the first quarter due to the ramp-up in mining of high-grade Kiena Deep ore from the 129-level horizon in mid-April, which was processed at record throughput levels. This is a proud moment for all involved, and I extend my congratulations to the entire site team. At Eagle River, the mine delivered on plan despite a maintenance shutdown in late June.

 

With solid performance in the first half of the year, we are on track to achieve our 2024 annual production guidance of between 160,000 and 180,000 ounces of gold.

 

As both high-grade mines continue to generate strong operating cash flow, we paid down the remaining $29 million balance on our revolving credit facility on schedule at the end of June. Wesdome is now debt-free, an important step as we position the Company for long-term sustainable growth.”

 

The financial statements and management discussion and analysis will be available on the Company’s website at www.wesdome.com and on SEDAR+ www.sedarplus.ca.
