Tietto Minerals Shares Surge Over 30%: Heres Why

Oct 30, 2023

Tietto Minerals (ASX: TIE)  has recently released its updated Life of Mine Plan (LOMP) for the Abujar gold project, revealing some remarkable figures. The plan estimates a gold production of 170,000 ounces per annum for nine years from 2024 to 2032, with a notable increase in production head grade to 1.04 grams of gold per tonne. The company aims to reach a total production of 1.53 million ounces of gold from 2024 to 2032, with an all-in sustaining cost (AISC) of US$982 per ounce. The robust economics of the project are highlighted by pre-tax net present value (NPV) of US$1.06 billion and post-tax NPV of US$853 million at a gold price of US$1,900 per ounce.

Exceptional September Quarter Production

Tietto Minerals demonstrated its operational excellence by more than doubling gold production in the September Quarter. The company achieved a gold production of 33,753 ounces, a substantial increase from the 15,592 ounces produced in the preceding June Quarter. Notably, production continued to surge despite challenges such as insufficient mill feed earlier in 2023 and adverse weather conditions during the quarter.

Positive Corporate Developments

The company has made significant additions to its leadership team, appointing Sabina Shugg AM as a Non-Executive Director and welcoming Clinton Bennett as the Chief Operating Officer. These additions signal a commitment to enhancing the company's management capabilities.

Debt Conversion and Improved Liquidity

In a move to strengthen its financial position, Tietto Minerals reduced its debt load by more than 30% as lenders converted an $8 million loan into ordinary shares. As of September 30, 2023, the company reported cash and bullion (unaudited) amounting to AU$45.3 million (US$29.0 million), even after a scheduled debt repayment of US$6.25 million during the quarter.

The significant increase in gold production, coupled with the positive updated LOMP, has driven investor confidence and led to a remarkable 30% surge in Tietto Minerals' shares. With a clear path for substantial gold production and robust economics, the company appears well-positioned to capitalize on the abundant opportunities in the gold market.
