An announcement from Akobo Minerals AB ( (DE:643) ) is now available.

Akobo Minerals reported that momentum from its strong fourth quarter carried into January, with stable operations at the Segele mine, solid gold output of about 8 kg worth roughly USD 1.2 million, and cumulative doré production reaching around 81 kg. Benefiting from historically high gold prices, the company is seeing improved operating margins and stronger free cash flow, while its approximately 9,500-ounce gold loan remains structurally unchanged and modest relative to its resource base, supporting repayment capacity through mid-2027.

Operationally, Akobo maintains a stockpile of about 500 tonnes of blended material, providing flexibility and enabling steady processing plant throughput ahead of a planned shift to continuous 24/7 operation once a new vertical shaft comes online. Development of this shaft is advancing, with civil works for headgear largely complete, key equipment in transit or installed, and the shaft sinking team back on site with roughly 80 metres remaining, changes that are expected to underwrite higher and more consistent future production without requiring amendments to the current loan agreement.
