Golconda Gold CEO, Ravi Sood commented: “We have had a strong start to 2025, with a 32% increase in production compared to the previous quarter, selling into a record gold price market, enabling Galaxy to further invest in new mining machines, equipment refurbishments and critical stock. Two additional loaders and a drill rig were put into service during Q1, with additional equipment scheduled for Q21. Importantly, US$950,000 of debt was also paid down in Q1, an important step in deleveraging the Company. The team at Galaxy continues to work hard, and we are excited to continue our positive trend in increasing production further through the remainder of 20251.”
