shared an update on its operations at the Yaramoko Mine in Burkina
Faso.
On October 5, 2024, Burkina Faso’s President
Ibrahim Traoré made public comments regarding mining companies
operating in the country and the possible withdrawal of existing
mining permits. Fortuna has sought clarification from the country’s
Ministry of Mines on this point and has received confirmation that
the government has no plans to withdraw existing mining permits
which are in compliance with Burkina Faso’s laws. The Yaramoko Mine
is in compliance with all material laws and operations continue to
be conducted normally.
The Yaramoko Mine has been in operation since
2016 and reached the one-million-ounce gold pour milestone on May
19, 2024 (refer to Fortuna news release dated May 22, 2024,
“Fortuna’s Yaramoko Mine reaches one-million-ounce gold pour
milestone”). Yaramoko is expected to contribute approximately 25
percent of Fortuna’s gold equivalent ounces in 2024 (refer to
Fortuna news release dated January 18, 2024, “Fortuna reports
record 2023 production of 452 koz Au Eq and 2024 annual guidance of
