Metro Mining Posts Record 2025 Bauxite Shipments and Solid Year-End Cash Position

Metro Mining Limited ( (AU:MMI) ) has issued an update.

Metro Mining Limited reported record calendar-year shipments of 6.2 million wet metric tonnes (WMT) of bauxite from its Bauxite Hills Operation in 2025, a 9% increase on the prior year and in line with revised guidance. December 2025 shipments reached 543,000 WMT, a record for the month and 16% higher year-on-year, despite weather-related disruptions and a delayed final vessel.

Metro closed the year with A$57 million in cash against A$62 million of senior debt, underscoring a solid liquidity position as it enters the seasonal shutdown and plans for the next operating cycle.
