25/03/2026 20:25

Overview

Canada gold miner's Q4 revenue grew yr/yr, gold production fell 17% due to lower head grades

Company completed Casa Berardi gold mine acquisition after quarter-end

Outlook

Orezone sees 2026 Bomboré gold production at 160,000-180,000 oz

Company expects 2026 Bomboré AISC at $2,100-$2,300/oz sold

Result Drivers

LOWER HEAD GRADES - Co said Q4 gold production fell due to lower oxide head grades, partially offset by higher plant throughput from new hard rock plant

HIGHER COSTS - Q4 all-in sustaining costs rose due to lower head grades, higher royalty costs from increased gold prices and new royalty rates, and a stronger XOF currency impacting local costs

INCREASED MINING AND PROCESSING COSTS - Higher mining and processing costs per tonne were driven by a higher strip ratio, longer haul profiles, and increased power and reagent use for hard rock ore
