The extension includes the San Antonio and Roswell resources, and shows the potential to produce 100,000 ounces of gold in 2025. <\/p>\n<p>For its part, Mandalay\u2019s Costerfield operation produced 54,805 gold equivalent ounces in 2024, or 43,346 ounces of gold and 1,282 tonnes of antimony. Antimony is a critical mineral used in key sectors like defence. <\/p>\n<p>The companies project that the combined entity will produce about 160,000 gold equivalent ounces in 2025, with that amount rising to over 180,000 gold equivalent ounces the following year.<\/p>\n<p>The transaction has been unanimously approved by both company boards and is expected to close in Q3. The all-share transaction is valued at AU$559.1 million, and the new entity\u2019s implied market cap is AU$1.01 billion. <\/p>\n<p>The combined company will keep the ASX as its primary listing and pursue a secondary listing on the TSX.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to have found a like-minded partner committed to the same principles,\u201d said Mandalay President and CEO Frazer Bourchier. \u201cThe transaction aligns with our vision to create a mid-tier gold and antimony producer with mines in premier operating jurisdictions and with our strategy for continued growth.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><strong>Securities Disclosure: I, Gabrielle de la Cruz, hold no direct investment interest in any company mentioned in this article.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"widget__show-more with-primary-color js-keep-reading js-page-view-and-reload-embeds\"><span class=\"show-more js-expand\">Keep reading\u2026<\/span><span class=\"show-less js-contract\">Show less<\/span><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<div>This post appeared first on investingnews.com<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alkane Resources (ASX:ALK,OTC Pink:ALKEF) and Mandalay Resources (TSX:MND,OTCQB:MNDJF) have announced a merger of equals to form a new gold and antimony producer.
