Golconda Gold: Advancing Gold Production in Tier 1 Gold Jurisdictions in South Africa and the US
Golconda Gold (TSXV:GG) is a growth-focused junior producer with operations in prolific gold districts in South Africa and the US. Positioned as one of the sector’s highest-torque opportunities, Golconda offers investors profitable production, exposure to both gold and silver, and a disciplined, capital-efficient path to meaningful growth.
Golconda Gold is anchored by two cornerstone assets: Galaxy, its cash-flowing South African gold mine, and Summit, a high-grade silver-gold project in New Mexico set for restart. Together, they provide self-funded growth, U.S. exposure, and strong leverage to rising gold prices.
Galaxy, Golconda’s cornerstone asset, is a producing mine in South Africa’s prolific Barberton Greenstone Belt. The operation hosts 941,000 oz gold (M&I, 2.79 g/t) and 1.37 Moz inferred (2.62 g/t), supported by strong infrastructure and access to skilled mining services.
Company Highlights
- Significant Production Growth: On track to triple production over three years at Galaxy while bringing Summit online in Q2 2026.
- Summit Restart and Spin-out: Fully permitted past-producing mine in New Mexico, expected to restart in Q2 2026 and spin out as a standalone US-focused gold-silver producer in Q4 2026.
- No Dilution Strategy: Growth funded through operating cash flow rather than equity raises, ensuring torque to gold without shareholder dilution.
- Insider Alignment: Management and insiders control more than 40 percent of shares, aligning leadership directly with shareholder interests.
- Jurisdictional Strengths: Operations in South Africa’s Barberton Greenstone Belt (long history of gold mining, strong infrastructure) and in the US southwest.
- Exploration Upside: Both Galaxy and Summit hold substantial untested upside with additional ore bodies and underexplored zones.

Gold Price Breaks US$3,800 as US Government Shutdown Looms
Gold's record-setting rise continued on Monday (September 29) as the price broke US$3,800 per ounce.
After spending the summer months consolidating, the yellow metal began pushing higher toward the end of August. It quickly took out US$3,500 and continued on past US$3,600, US$3,700 and now US$3,800.
The yellow metal is up over 10 percent in the last month, and about 44 percent year-to-date.
Gold price chart, June 28 to September 29, 2025.
Chart via the Investing News Network.
Gold's latest rise comes amid concerns about a US government shutdown.
Congress has until the end of Tuesday (September 30) to reach a deal on a spending bill ahead of the new fiscal year, and will close shop the next day if an agreement hasn't been reached.
Democrats and Republicans are currently at loggerheads as Democrats push for changes to the bill, including an extension to billions of dollars in subsidies for Obamacare, and as President Donald Trump threatens thousands of permanent layoffs — not just temporary furloughs — in the event of a shutdown.
Beyond current events, gold's rise is underpinned by factors like strong central bank buying, global geopolitical uncertainty, concerns about the US dollar and other fiat currencies and expectations of lower interest rates.
Those factors have many experts predicting a rise beyond US$4,000, potentially before the end of the year, although a correction is widely expected beforehand.
Barrick, Newmont announce leadership changes
Gold's US$3,800 milestone comes as major miners Barrick Mining (TSX:ABX,NYSE:B) and Newmont (TSX:NGT,NYSE:NEM,ASX:NEM) announce leadership changes.
Barrick President and CEO Mark Bristow unexpectedly stepped down on Monday after nearly seven years at the helm of the company. His exit comes after major changes at the company, including a shift toward copper and an asset divestment program designed to hone the company's focus on tier-one assets.
Bristow's departure is effective immediately. Mark Hill, who is responsible for the company's Latam and Asia Pacific regions, has stepped in as group COO, and interim president and CEO.
Also on Monday, Newmont announced the retirement of CEO Tom Palmer, who has held the position since 2019. He will be succeeded by Natascha Viljoen, currently the company's president and COO, on January 1, 2026; Palmer will maintain a strategic advisor position until officially retiring on March 31, 2026.
Analysts note that Newmont had been signaling that a succession plan was in the works.
Similar to Barrick, the company has been in the midst of an extensive program geared at streamlining its portfolio. Newmont acquired Newcrest Mining in 2023, and in February 2024 announced a program to sell non-core assets. It completed the program in April of this year, but has continued to make portfolio adjustments, including the recently announced sale of the Yukon-based Coffee project to Fuerte Metals (TSXV:FMT,OTCQB:FUEMF).
During the last gold bull run, miners were criticized for allowing their costs to get out of hand, and for doing high-priced deals when the market was hot. This time around, they seem to be making efforts to remain in control and make decisions that benefit both their bottom lines and shareholders.

Golconda Gold
Investor Insight
With a growth-oriented strategy, Golconda Gold is positioning itself as one of the highest-torque junior gold producers in the sector with assets in prolific gold districts in South Africa and the US. For investors bullish on gold, Golconda is a unique opportunity: a profitable producer with meaningful growth ahead, exposure to both gold and silver, and the discipline to deliver shareholder value in a capital-efficient way.
Overview
Golconda Gold (TSXV:GG;OTCQB:GGGOF) is an unhedged gold producer and explorer with operations in South Africa and the United States. The company is focused on optimizing its current mining and processing operations, reducing costs, and growing organically while pursuing accretive acquisition opportunities.
Its growth story is underpinned by two cornerstone assets: Galaxy Gold, the company’s cash-flowing, long-life South African operation; and Summit, a high-grade silver-gold project in New Mexico poised for a restart. Galaxy provides a steadily growing, self-funded production base, while Summit is positioned as the next major catalyst for Golconda, broadening investor exposure to silver and US operations. These assets enable Golconda to deliver meaningful production growth without dilution, providing investors direct leverage to gold prices at a time when juniors remain undervalued relative to commodity prices.
With strong insider ownership and a disciplined approach to capital, Golconda offers investors a unique combination of operating stability, near-term growth and upside exploration potential.
Company Highlights
- Significant Production Growth: On track to triple production over three years at Galaxy while bringing Summit online in Q2 2026.
- Summit Restart and Spin-out: Fully permitted past-producing mine in New Mexico, expected to restart in Q2 2026 and spin out as a standalone US-focused gold-silver producer in Q4 2026.
- No Dilution Strategy: Growth funded through operating cash flow rather than equity raises, ensuring torque to gold without shareholder dilution.
- Insider Alignment: Management and insiders control more than 40 percent of shares, aligning leadership directly with shareholder interests.
- Jurisdictional Strengths: Operations in South Africa’s Barberton Greenstone Belt (long history of gold mining, strong infrastructure) and in the US southwest.
- Exploration Upside: Both Galaxy and Summit hold substantial untested upside with additional ore bodies and underexplored zones.
Key Projects
Galaxy Gold Mine
Galaxy is Golconda’s cornerstone asset and currently the company’s sole producing mine. Situated in the Barberton Greenstone Belt, one of South Africa’s most prolific gold districts with nearly 150 years of mining history, the mine benefits from established infrastructure, sealed-road access and proximity to skilled mining services. The property hosts a large resource base of 941,000 oz of gold in the measured and indicated categories grading 2.79 grams per ton (g/t), plus 1.37 million oz (Moz) inferred at 2.62 g/t.
Snapshot of Galaxy Gold Mine Operations
The operation is an underground, trackless mechanized mine, currently producing at a run rate of ~12,000 oz/year, with a multi-stage ramp-up plan to 25,000 oz/year by 2027 and up to 45,000 oz/year by 2028. Ore is processed through a 50,000 tonnes per month (tpm) crush-mill-float plant, which was refurbished with a new mill, concentrate tanks, and a filter press. The plant is already capable of handling the full ramp-up capacity, allowing it to expand with minimal capital outlay.
Galaxy produces a refractory gold concentrate sold directly to Ocean Partners, eliminating the need for BIOX or other complex high-capex processing routes. This low-risk sales model enables Galaxy to operate profitably and reinvest cash flow into mine development. The mine plan leverages both the Princeton and Galaxy ore bodies, with development into additional levels and ore bodies among the 21 known mineralized zones on the property. Over its history, Galaxy (formerly, the Agnes mine) has produced more than 1.3 Moz of gold, with current exploration drilling continuing to identify significant upside at depth and along strike.
Economically, Galaxy is highly accretive: at $3,000/oz gold, the operation generates an after-tax NPV5 percent of US$201 million, with life-of-mine free cash flow exceeding US$270 million on conservative assumptions. The operation has a projected all-in sustaining cost (AISC) of ~US$1,000/oz once ramp-up is complete, positioning it competitively within the global cost curve.
Summit Gold-Silver Mine and Banner Mill
The Summit mine, located in the Steeple Rock Mining District of southwestern New Mexico, is a high-grade past-producing underground operation. The New Mexico portfolio also includes the Banner mill, a 240 tpd flotation facility located 57 miles from Summit via paved highways and sealed roads. Golconda acquired the project from Waterton in 2021, along with a streamlined land package totaling ~4,000 acres of patented and unpatented claims.
Summit Mine and Banner Mills snapshot
Summit hosts a defined resource of 1.4 Moz silver and 26,000 oz gold in measured and indicated categories, plus 5.1 Moz silver and 74,000 oz gold inferred. The mine is fully permitted and is expected to restart in Q2 2026, with first concentrate production within 9 to 12 months. The restart strategy is fully funded internally from Galaxy cash flows, ensuring no dilution to shareholders.
The planned annual production profile targets ~10,000 oz gold and 444,000 oz silver at steady state, with an average AISC of US$1,600/oz gold equivalent. At $3,000/oz gold and $35/oz silver, Summit delivers an after-tax NPV5 percent of US$105 million, with cumulative free cash flow of ~US$135 million over its mine life. The project is structured to be spun out into a standalone US-only gold-silver producer by Q4 2026, broadening investor appeal and potentially unlocking a higher valuation multiple.The Banner Mill 240-tpd flotation facility 57 miles from the Summit mine
Exploration upside at Summit is significant. The Billali Zone, northwest of the main deposit, has returned historical intercepts including 681 g/t silver and 9.38 g/t gold over 4.4 m and hosts a 1992 historical resource of 288,000 tonnes grading 121 g/t silver and 3.67 g/t gold. The nearby Mohawk Area features a 2,000 ft IP anomaly with drill intercepts including 1.5 m at 437.5 g/t silver and 9.34 g/t gold at depth. Both zones remain open and underexplored, providing clear potential to extend mine life and scale production.
Summit’s restart and planned spin-out will give Golconda a second producing asset in a Tier 1 jurisdiction, diversify its commodity mix with silver exposure, and broaden its investor base, while maintaining the company’s no-dilution philosophy.

Barrick’s Bristow Steps Down Following Hemlo Sale and Mali Challenges
After nearly seven years leading Barrick Mining (TSX:ABX,NYSE:B), CEO Mark Bristow has stepped down.
Since the company’s 2019 merger with Randgold Resources, Bristow has overseen the integration of the two companies, as well as significant investments in Barrick’s gold and copper assets.
The firm returned US$6.7 billion to shareholders under Bristow and cut net debt by US$4 billion. Its most recent quarter shows strong operating results, healthy cashflow, an increased quarterly dividend and robust share price performance.
In a statement, John Thornton, chairman of the board, offered thanks to Bristow for his years of leadership.
“During his tenure, Mark strengthened our portfolio and helped position Barrick as a leading global producer of gold and copper,” said Thornton. “As a result, the company is well-positioned for the next phase of our growth and value creation for all shareholders. We wish Mark the very best for his future.”
Mark Hill, currently overseeing Barrick’s Latin America and Asia Pacific operations, will step in as interim CEO and president following Bristow’s sudden departure. A mining executive with 30 years of experience, Hill joined Barrick in 2006 and has held roles in strategy, corporate development and leading major global projects.
Hill also played a key role in the company’s initial decision to explore the Fourmile gold project in Nevada.
The board’s search committee, chaired by independent director Brett Harvey, has launched a process — with support from a leading executive search firm — to identify a permanent president and CEO.
Ahead of Bristow’s unexpected departure, Barrick had made several headline-making announcements.
Earlier this month, the company disclosed the sale of its Hemlo gold mine in Ontario for up to US$1.09 billion, marking the company’s exit from the Canadian gold-mining scene and a continued focus on core assets.
The deal with Carcetti Capital (TSXV:CART.H), soon to be renamed Hemlo Mining, includes US$875 million in cash, US$50 million in shares and up to US$165 million in contingent payments tied to future gold output and prices.
At the time, Bristow said the sale supported Barrick’s capital allocation strategy.
The company is also contending with ongoing legal and political challenges in Mali, where its Loulo-Gounkoto complex has faced repeated seizures by the ruling military junta.
In July, military helicopters removed over a metric ton of gold, worth roughly US$117 million, without the company’s consent, following a similar January incident that saw 3 metric tons confiscated and exports blocked, forcing a suspension of operations. Barrick has responded by initiating arbitration at the International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes, citing violations of its legal rights.
Shares of the mining major slipped slightly following Bristow’s exit, falling as low as C$47.95 on Monday (September 29), before rebounding back above C$48 by midday.
