KYZYL
Gold in concentrate increased by 10% on the back of higher processing volumes and better grades. Concentrate sales and bookable production continued to lag due to logistical constraints. Q1 gold production at Kyzyl grew by 6% y-o-y to 76 Koz due to higher volumes of concentrate shipped to offtakers in comparison with the low base of Q1 2023 when there were logistical challenges related to concentrate shipped through the Russian ports. In the reporting quarter, Kyzyl was producing low-arsenic concentrate which was railed directly to China which significantly reduces the working capital cycle. VARVARA
In Q1, Varvara recorded a planned 6% y-o-y decline in production driven by a moderate planned decrease in Komar ore grade at the leaching circuit. PERSONNEL The Company strengthened its management team by four new appointments. For more information please see the relevant press release at the link.
