KYZYL
At Kyzyl, gold production in the first nine months of 2024 increased on the back of higher Q2 concentrate shipment volumes to China. Quarterly gold production fell by 9% y-o-y to 77 Koz due to shipments reduction, driven by a shortage of railcars and congestion on the eastbound railroads in Kazakhstan. Waste and ore mining volumes reductions during the reported quarter are attributable to the scheduled decommissioning of the mine fleet. Full-year ore mining volumes will reach the planned 2.4 Mtpa. The Company is starting basic engineering and procurement of long-lead equipment for the Kyzyl underground mine project. VARVARA
Gold production at Varvara declined marginally to 42 Koz in Q3 and to 125 Koz in the first nine months of 2024. Negative dynamics is driven by a planned decrease in Komar ore grade at the leaching circuit, which was partially compensated by higher volumes of third-party material with better recovery rates introduced at the flotation circuit.
