Golconda Gold CEO, Ravi Sood commented: “2025 was a transformational year for Galaxy and Golconda Gold. Two historic mining areas were re-established during the year, Princeton Top and Galaxy 26/27 levels, which along with significant investment in mining equipment from both a capital and preventative maintenance perspective enabled gold production to increase 69% compared to 2024. This significant increase in production, and the material increase in realised gold price during 2025 has enabled the Company to invest further at Galaxy and has significantly improved the Company&s balance sheet and working capital position. Significant progress was also made in 2025 on the Summit Property re-start project and we are excited to bring our second project into production in the very near future.(2)&
