- Positive cash flows from operating activities of $544,675.
- $2,309,975 of debt repaid.
Galane Gold CEO, Nick Brodie commented: “We continue to make good progress at Galaxy by exceeding our production targets plus commencing stoping in the Galaxy ore body. In addition, based on the excellent condition of the Summit Mine and the Banner Mill, we have decided to advance a plan with a shorter path to production(1).
As stated in our press release of August 9, 2021, Mupane production was not at the level we had hoped for in the second quarter due to problems experienced at its main jaw crusher, employee absence due to COVID-19, issues with its main incoming transformer and production complications at Tau due to poor performance by its mining contractor.
Despite this, we have continued to make considerable progress in the reduction of debt on our balance sheet. We are also currently seeing on-plan performance from our mining contractor and we will continue to work with them to maintain that for the remainder of this year(1).”
