- Gold sales in Q2 2025 of 25,900 oz at an average realized price of US$3,187 resulting in revenue of $82.5 million
- Gold produced from 238,425 tonnes milled at an average grade of 3.12 grammes per tonne ("g/t") of gold and process plant recovery at 93.1%
- Mine production of 242,461 tonnes at an average grade of 3.02g/t of gold for 23,573 oz
- Ore stockpile decreased by 307 oz to 41,092 oz of gold at an average grade of 0.84g/t of gold
FY 2025 Outlook and Catalysts
- FY 2025 production guidance range maintained at 85,000 to 95,000 oz of gold
- FY 2025 All-in Sustaining Cost ("AISC") guidance range maintained at $800 to $1,000 per ounce.
- Drilling programs across all the Company's exploration portfolio
Segilola: continuation of ongoing underground drilling program
Nigeria regional targets: continuation of scout drilling programs on identified near-mine and regional targets
Senegal at the Douta Project:
- Completion of drilling program at Baraka 3 prospect targeted to be incorporated into the Douta Preliminary Feasibility Study mine plan
- Completion of further Reverse Circulation ("RC") drilling targeting additional oxide resources
- Following completion of Douta Project drilling programs, preparation of Updated Mineral Resource Estimate and Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS") at the Douta Project
Côte d'Ivoire: Exploration being advanced on the Guitry, Marahui and Boundiali licenses, with further drilling to occur on Guitry and drilling to commence on Marahui where drill targets have been delineated.
During May and June 2025, Thor completed an initial 3,000 metre ("m") reverse circulation ("RC") drilling program at Guitry and has received initial assay results from the program. The objective of the program was to gain a better understanding of both the geometry and geological controls on gold mineralisation based on a new interpretation of the historic drilling results obtained by Endeavour Mining, the historical owner of the asset.
The assay results received to date from this drilling program include the following highlights:
- Drillhole GURC25-208 - 14m at 2.59 grammes per tonne ("g/t") of gold ("Au") from surface
- Drillhole GURC25-209 - 4m at 6.87 g/tAu from 38m
- Drillhole GURC25-212 - 5m at 7.48 g/tAu from 5m
- Drillhole GURC25-214 - 10m at 10.36g/t Au from 57m
- Drillhole GURC25-216 - 7m at 3.93 g/tAu from 7m
- Drillhole GURC25-219 - 3m at 14.50 g/tAu from 82m
- Drillhole GURC25-221 - 13m at 3.46/t Au from 114m
- Drillhole GURC25-227 - 7m at 7.71 g/tAu from 77m
- Drillhole GURC25-228 - 5m at 12.65 g/tAu from 69m
- Drillhole GURC25-229 - 17m at 2.16 g/tAu from surface
Further exploration at the Krakouadiokro Prospect will include both infill and step-out drilling.
