Golconda Gold CEO, Ravi Sood commented: "Galaxy continued its production ramp-up in Q3 2025 achieving record quarterly gold production, up 18% compared to Q2 2025 and up 51% compared to Q3 2024. Cash generation continued to increase enabling the Company to invest in its production ramp-up while also paying down debt.  Significant progress was made during the quarter on refurbishment of the sub-vertical shaft and 26 level of Galaxy, with the first ore blast occurring post-quarter end, adding an additional ore source in Q4 2025.
Progress continued on various workstreams at the Summit Mine in New Mexico, USA, with additional technical consultants being appointed to assist with the re-start plan. We continue to target a restart of the mine in the second quarter of 2026, which is expected to add further production, including a significant silver component, to our operating portfolio on a non-dilutive basis."
