    Nelligan Gold Project Sees Substantial Resource Growth

    IAMGOLD officially filed its “NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Nelligan Gold Project, Québec,” dated April 2, 2025. Prepared by SLR Consulting (Canada) Ltd., the report outlines significant growth in mineral resources at the 100%-owned Nelligan site.

    As of December 31, 2024, the project boasts 3.1 million ounces of gold in the Indicated category within 102.8 million tonnes at an average grade of 0.95 grams per tonne (g/t Au). Inferred resources have also increased to 5.2 million ounces in 166.4 million tonnes at 0.96 g/t Au—representing a 56% and 33% rise in Indicated and Inferred ounces, respectively, over the previous year.

    Broader Updates to Global Resource Portfolio

    The Inferred Resource category rose by 27% to 12.8 million ounces. At Essakane, Mineral Reserves increased 5% despite depletion, while Côté saw a 4% reduction due to ongoing drilling. Meanwhile, Westwood maintained its reserve base near one million ounces.

    Strategic Focus on Exploration and Expansion

    Looking ahead, IAMGOLD has set an ambitious target of 45,000 metres of drilling in 2025 at its Côté and Gosselin properties. IAG aims to convert Inferred resources into Indicated ones, particularly in the Gosselin zone, while evaluating additional extensions and breccia zones at depth.

    The revised mining plan and updated Mineral Reserve and Resource estimate, which are anticipated in 2026, will be supported by these activities. With Nelligan emerging as a possible cornerstone project for future development, IAMGOLD’s (IAG) strong position in the global gold industry is further reinforced by its ongoing exploration success and strong reserve growth.

    IAMGOLD reports second Quarter financial results for 2021

    The Essakane mine had produced strong and promising results of the second quarter with high gold production in spite of the fact that there were numerous challenges in ore processing with high graphitic content. The production guidance has been increased for the Essakane project which will reflect higher production in the first two quarters of 2021.
    On the other hand, the Westwood mine required additional safety measures because of which the production guidance for Westwood 2021 had to be reduced to reflect this.
    Due to difficult operating conditions, mining activities in the Rosebel mine were impacted in the second quarter, which was caused by heavy rainfall. In addition to the operating conditions, there was also a significant increase in COVID-19 cases as there had emerged a new variant in Suriname during the second quarter. The social impact of this greatly affected the projects and operations. The Guidance for Rosebel were adjusted downwards due to the said reasons.

    The company has summarized the results preliminary for second-quarter operations and also updated the 2021 guidance set on certain metrics. The changes in guidance have been made based on the first-half performance of 2021 and successive efforts for developing an updated outlook for the latter half of 2021.
    The full-year assumptions for the updated full-year guidance 2021 included the $65 average crude oil price per barrel and average realized gold price of $1,745 per ounce with a EUR: USD exchange rate of 1.2 and USD: CAD exchange rate of 1.22.
    The production guidance for the overall company has been reduced mainly due to the reduced actual production in Rosebel and Westwood mines, which was somewhat counterbalanced by high actual production in Essakane mine for the first half of 2021. Total per-ounce costs guidance had been increased which reflected lower total company-wide attributable guidance. The company, in accordance with IFRS, is trying to determine any kind of impairment for the Westwood mine and that it need adjustment or not.
