Mineral Reserves and Resources - The IGD Expansion Study has increased the Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves to 8.3 million ounces, a 30% increase from the previous estimate of 6.3 million ounces [7][19]. - Underground Mineral Reserves have risen by 25% to 5.1 million ounces, while open pit Mineral Reserves increased by 40% to 3.1 million ounces [8][9]. Capital Expenditure - Growth capital for the IGD Expansion is estimated at $542 million, focusing on the Magino mill expansion and accelerated underground development, with total growth capital expected to reach $704 million [55][56]. - The capital for the mill expansion to 20,000 tpd is estimated at $200 million, with significant spending anticipated in 2026 and 2027 [57][58]. Environmental Impact - The IGD Expansion is expected to achieve a 56% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions per ounce produced, further decreasing the emission intensity to 70% lower than the industry average [36][47]. Operational Improvements - The expansion will include enhancements to the Magino mill circuit, such as a new truck dump configuration and a centralized gyratory crusher, aimed at improving processing efficiency and reducing costs [22][40]. - The transition to shaft operations is expected to stabilize costs and improve mining efficiency, with underground mining rates projected to increase to 3,000 tpd by 2029 [23][29]. Financial Projections - The after-tax net present value (NPV) of the IGD Expansion is estimated at $8.2 billion at a long-term gold price of $3,200 per ounce, increasing to $12.2 billion at a price of $4,500 per ounce [13][14]. - The after-tax internal rate of return (IRR) is projected at 53% based on the $3,200 gold price and 69% at $4,500 [14][18]. Summary of Costs - Total cash costs are expected to average $682 per ounce over the initial 10 years post-expansion, reflecting a significant decrease from previous estimates [47][51]. - Open pit mining costs are projected to average C$4.85 per tonne, while underground mining costs are expected to average C$135 per tonne [48][51].
