Notes to Editors
Hummingbird Resources (AIM: HUM) is a leading multi-asset, multi-jurisdiction gold production, development and exploration company and member of the World Gold Council ("WGC"). Our vision is to continue to grow our asset base, producing highly profitable ounces, while central to all we do being our Environmental, Social & Governance ("ESG") policies and practices. The Company currently has two core gold projects, the Yanfolila Gold Mine in Mali, and the recently acquired Kouroussa Gold Project in Guinea. Further, the Company has a controlling interest in the Dugbe Gold Project in Liberia that is being developed by Pasofino Gold Limited through an earn-in agreement. Construction of the Yanfolila mine, was on time and on budget in December 2017 having produced to date in excess of 321 kozs (as end of December 2020). Mineable Reserves, as at 31 October 2019 Yanfolila were 7.9Mt of Reserve ore @ 2.66 g/t for 676,000ozs gold. At 31 March 2019 Yanfolila had a total Resource base (inclusive of Reserves) of 28Mt of Ore @ 2.23 g/t for 2,005,300ozs gold. The Kouroussa Gold Project has a Mineral Resource base of 1.18Moz @ 3.08 g/t, which we are working on to be fast tracked to production, adding an additional c.100,000 oz of gold per annum to the Company's production profile.
Feels a bit like a corporate underlining like we haven't seen before. The picture painted above suggests gold of 3.185m oz of gold now on the table between Yan and Kouroussa.. which will still grow.
Even at current AISC, that's years and years (15 years @ 130koz's for Yan alone) of profit from a NET DEBT position. I wanted to see this summary put forward.
Chill everyone, hold your tokens and enjoy the future...
