Both the Bibiani and Chirano Gold Mines faced operational constraints, including lower grades from stockpiles and processing plant issues, impacting recoveries and overall output. The company has initiated a comprehensive operational and strategic review to address these challenges and improve consistent production and cash flow. Reasoning: The company reported a significant increase in consolidated AISC and a decrease in gold equivalent production for FY2025 compared to the prior year. Both Bibiani and Chirano mines experienced operational challenges leading to lower grades and recoveries, and higher costs, despite some improvements in mining activity. An operational review is underway to address these issues. - Positive factor: Increased material movement at Bibiani - Positive factor: Underground operations progress at Chirano - Positive factor: Operational and strategic review underway to improve performance - Negative factor: Significant increase in consolidated AISC - Negative factor: Lower consolidated gold equivalent production in FY2025 compared to prior year - Negative factor: Bibiani gold recovery decreased in Q4 2025 due to lower oxide ore proportion - Negative factor: Chirano grade and production decreased due to low-grade stockpiles and CIL plant issues - Negative factor: Operational constraints and delays at both mines Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source. Facts used in scoring: 63 ## Classification and evidence **Mill Route** Polarity: neutral Definition: Processing via mill or concentrator \(CIL, CIP, tank leach, flotation\). Why it applies: the document describes a mill\_cil route \("CIL"\) **Gravity Route** Polarity: neutral Definition: Gravity separation forms a material part of the flowsheet.
