Dan O’Flaherty, CEO of Versamet, commented, “It has been an exciting start to an important year for Versamet. This quarter marks the beginning of a significant ramp-up in GEOs and revenue, which is expected to grow our forecasted production to between 14,000 and 16,000 GEOs by 2026. We were pleased to see the first gold pour at Artemis Gold’s Blackwater mine in B.C. and the continued ramp-up of operations at Equinox Gold’s Greenstone mine in Ontario, both of which are expected to contribute increasing GEOs to Versamet over the remainder of this year and into 2026.

Looking ahead, we aim to continue this momentum with several upcoming catalysts, including the first delivery of copper from Kolpa, the first gold pour at Kiaka in the second half of the year, and the start of pre-strip mining at Toega.

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company’s common shares commenced trading on the TSX Venture Exchange on May 20, marking another key milestone in our growth. A primary focus going forward will be enhancing our market profile and broadening our investor base.”

On May 12, 2025, West African Resources (“West African”) provided an update on development activities at Kiaka highlighting that construction remains on schedule with the crushing circuit complete and operational, and commissioning of the wet plant underway. Mining activities are ramping up ahead of the scheduled commencement of process plant operations and first gold pour expected in Q3 of this year.

Toega (2.7% NSR)

Also during the first quarter, West African announced a maiden underground mineral resource and scoping study for a potential underground development beneath the Toega open pit, which is expected to begin producing in 2026. The maiden underground inferred mineral resource estimate includes 4.9 million tonnes at a grade of 3.5 grams per tonne containing 560,000 ounces of gold with the deposit remaining open at depth. The underground scoping study outlined the potential to produce an additional 515,000 ounces of gold over a 7-year mine life. Toega underground production is incremental to the pre-existing 8-year open pit mine life outlined in West African’s latest 10-year mine plan. An updated 10-year mine plan is expected later this year which will integrate the open pit and underground resources into a single operation.1
