WAF now has Mineral Resources of 12.6Moz
WAF increased its Mineral Resources by 1Moz to 12.6Moz, net of mining depletion and its Ore Reserves by 4.7Moz to 6.4Moz gold – the latter representing Mineral Resources that can be economically mined.
This upgrade came after work by independent resource consultants thatWAF hired. The Ore Reserves were increased mainly through the inclusion of an additional 4.5Moz reserve announced to shareholders last August.
WAF told shareholders it anticipated production of 210,000-230,000 oz at an AISC of <US$1,175/oz in 2023. From 2025, it hopes to increase this to 400,000oz per annum.
The company has $173m in cash, no senior debt and 100% unhedged gold production.
Its a good time for shareholders
Shareholders who have held this stock for the long term would be satisfied, but the past 12-18 months have been volatile as gold prices have stagnated.

But if gold prices hold up, and WAF meets or exceeds its gold production guidance, the future looks bright for the company.
