The Otjikoto Mine in Namibia, during which the Firm holds a 90% curiosity, had a robust 2024 and produced 198,142 ounces of gold, close to the mid-point of its steerage vary of between 185,000 and 205,000 ounces. For the 12 months ended December 31, 2024, mill feed grade was 1.87 g/t, mill throughput was 3.34 million tonnes, and gold restoration averaged 98.6%. Within the fourth quarter of 2024, the Otjikoto Mine produced 52,452 ounces of gold. For the fourth quarter of 2024, mill feed grade was 2.10 g/t, mill throughput was 0.79 million tonnes, and gold restoration averaged 98.6%.

Ore manufacturing from the Wolfshag underground mine for the fourth quarter of 2024 averaged over 1,650 tonnes per day at a median gold grade of three.61 g/t gold. Open pit mining operations at Otjikoto Mine are anticipated to conclude in 2025, whereas processing operations are anticipated to proceed till economically viable stockpiles are exhausted in 2032. Underground operations underneath the present Otjikoto mine plan are projected to proceed into 2027 with potential to increase underground operations if the continued underground exploration program is profitable in figuring out further underground mineral deposits.

On February 4, 2025, the Firm introduced constructive PEA outcomes for the Antelope deposit on the Otjikoto Mine. The Antelope deposit, comprised of the Springbok Zone, the Oryx Zone, and a potential third construction, Impala, topic to additional confirmatory drilling, is situated roughly 4 km southwest of the prevailing Otjikoto open pit. Based mostly on the constructive outcomes from the PEA, B2Gold believes that the Antelope deposit has the potential to develop into a small-scale, low-cost, underground gold mine that may complement the low-grade stockpile manufacturing throughout the interval of 2028 to 2032 and lead to a significant manufacturing profile for Otjikoto into the subsequent decade. The PEA for the Antelope deposit signifies an preliminary mine lifetime of 5 years and whole manufacturing of 327,000 ounces averaging roughly 65,000 ounces per 12 months over the lifetime of mine. Together with the processing of present low grade stockpiles, manufacturing from the Antelope deposit has the potential to extend Otjikoto Mine manufacturing to roughly 110,000 ounces per 12 months for 2029 via 2032. The Firm has authorised an preliminary finances of as much as $10 million for 2025 to de-risk the Antelope deposit improvement schedule by advancing early work planning, venture permits, and lengthy lead orders. Technical work together with geotechnical, hydrogeological, and metallurgical testing is anticipated to be accomplished over the subsequent a number of months. Price and schedule assumptions will proceed to be refined by working with suppliers and contractors, together with operating a aggressive bid course of for the event section of the Antelope deposit.

The Inferred Mineral Useful resource estimate for the Antelope deposit that fashioned the premise for the PEA included 1.75 million tonnes grading 6.91 g/t gold for a complete of 390,000 ounces of gold, the vast majority of which is hosted within the Springbok Zone. The Antelope deposit stays open alongside strike in each instructions, highlighting sturdy potential for future useful resource growth.

The PEA is preliminary in nature and is predicated on Inferred Mineral Sources which are thought of too speculative geologically to have the engineering and financial concerns utilized to them that might allow them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves, and there’s no certainty that the PEA based mostly on these Mineral Sources will likely be realized. Mineral Sources that aren’t Mineral Reserves would not have demonstrated financial viability.

All-in sustaining prices per gold ounce

In June 2013, the World Gold Council, a non-regulatory affiliation of the world’s main gold mining firms established to advertise using gold to trade, customers and buyers, offered steerage for the calculation of the measure “all-in sustaining prices per gold ounce”, however as a non-IFRS measure, it doesn’t have a standardized that means underneath IFRS and due to this fact will not be corresponding to comparable measures offered by different issuers. The unique World Gold Council customary turned efficient January 1, 2014 with additional updates introduced on November 16, 2018 which have been efficient beginning January 1, 2019.

Accordingly, it’s supposed to supply further info and shouldn’t be thought of in isolation or as an alternative to measures of efficiency ready in accordance with IFRS. Adoption of the usual is voluntary and the price measures offered will not be corresponding to different equally titled measures of different firms. The Firm has utilized the ideas of the World Gold Council suggestions and has reported all-in sustaining prices on a gross sales foundation. Different firms might calculate these measures in another way.
